About the ANA
The ANA’s (Association of National Advertisers) mission is to drive growth for marketing professionals, brands and businesses, the industry, and humanity. Founded in 1910, the ANA provides leadership that advances marketing excellence and shapes the future of the industry. Our membership includes more than 20,000 brands and 50,000 industry professionals that collectively invest $400 billion in marketing and advertising annually. It consists of U.S. and international companies, including client-side marketers, nonprofits, universities, and marketing solutions providers, which include ad agencies, marketing data science and technology suppliers, law firms, consultants, and vendors. We are obsessed with delighting our members through superior products and services and an unwavering commitment to helping them become more effective marketers, build stronger brands, develop a more productive industry, and benefit humanity through bold leadership and innovation programs.
The ANA Educational Foundation (AEF) is the bridge that connects the marketing, advertising and academic communities. Together we educate and inspire our next generation of leaders while advancing the understanding of marketing and advertising in society. The AEF’s talent programs include the Marketing and Advertising Education (MADE) internship and mentorship programs to help students better prepare for careers in the industry, and the Campus Speaker program that sends over 250 practitioners into classrooms every year to share their experience. Through its education programs the Foundation connects with a network of 4,500 professors to share the most current industry practices, and its academic journal Advertising & Society Quarterly (ASQ) is visited by over 35,000 educators and students monthly. As one of the engines driving the ANA’s Talent and Marketing Organization growth agenda, the AEF recently launched its Marketing Technology Initiative to bring industry and academia together to address the challenges and opportunities presented by new technologies and AI.
