IO also makes connections for IDM companies through research, events, partnerships, trade missions and other opportunities for members.

Class A (formerly Full Membership) is open to all companies (including sole proprietorships) engaged in the creation of interactive digital media in Ontario. Class B (formerly Supporting Membership) is open to companies working to support the IDM industry through related professional services. Member benefits are the same for both, but only Class A may vote at our Annual General Meeting.

Membership is renewed on an annual basis, on the date your company joined. Membership fees are based on the size of your company. If you are a non-profit organization, please contact us for our non-profit rates.
