Corporate members participating in the IEEE-SA Corporate Program gain network opportunities across a broad cross-section of interested parties. Becoming a corporate member allows a company's business interests to be represented and heard through IEEE's Corporate and Industry Connections Programs. In addition, corporate members have exclusive access to member-only outreach materials and receive specific member support to address their interests.
IEEE has a new framework for IEEE-SA corporate participation and membership that introduces an advanced level of corporate membership required for participation (voting rights in working groups) in entity standards projects.
