When an organization pays dues to IAEE, it becomes the "member." Dues are based on factors other than number of individuals. Therefore, all exhibition and event industry staff can enjoy the benefits of membership without additional financial consequences. All IAEE dues categories enjoy the resources of local chapter membership and membership in the Center for Exhibition Industry Research (CEIR). To speak with an IAEE Member Benefits Specialist, call +1 (972) 458-8002, extension 116, 109, or 110, or send an e-mail to: membership@iaee.com.
