History

IMCA is the oldest insurance marketing trade association in North America, founded in 1923 as the Insurance Advertising Conference (IAC). In 1984, we changed our name to the Insurance Marketing Communications Association to better reflect the evolving roles of insurance communicators. The name was amended in 2005 to the Insurance Marketing & Communications Association to better differentiate members’ broad expertise in marketing, public relations, corporate communications and emerging digital communication practices.
