Committees

Join a GICA Committee!

GICA invites individuals from member companies to apply or nominate colleagues for committee positions. We’re looking for dedicated volunteers ready to engage in bi-weekly calls and contribute to ongoing committee activities through occasional emails.

Our committees, along with the GICA Board of Directors, play a crucial role in shaping initiatives and enhancing member benefits.
