About NAMIC

Empowering Today’s Multi-ethnic Diversity in Communications

NAMIC works to ensure that our industry reflects our world.

The National Association for Multi-Ethnicity in Communications - NAMIC is a 501(c)(6) trade association that was founded in 1980. NAMIC educates, advocates and empowers for multi-ethnic diversity in the telecommunications industry through its 18 nationwide chapters. NAMIC welcomes existing and aspiring broadband and new media professionals to our membership roster. Members are cable operators, programmers, hardware suppliers, telecommunication and new media professionals and entrepreneurs. Our members come from customer contact offices, executive suites and every position in-between. They are of every race, multiple cultures — and they are all committed to a future in which these differences are strengths.

NAMIC focuses locally to create change globally.

Chapters across the United States are NAMIC’s foundation. Membership is comprised of more than 1,500 professionals in 18 chapters throughout the country. NAMIC chapters cover the following areas: Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, Dallas, Detroit, Mid-Atlantic, New England, New York, Central Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Miami, Philadelphia, San Antonio, San Francisco Bay Area, Southern California, St. Louis and Western Pennsylvania. In addition to local chapter affiliation, all members belong to the national organization. Multiple chapter memberships are available for an additional fee.

NAMIC is continually growing and working toward change.

NAMIC’s success lies in not only focusing on industry-wide initiatives, but also in our commitment to individuals. Our leadership development programs give the tools for professional growth directly to employees, ensuring people of color will be a major part of the power base in the new millennium. After taking the pulse on issues of interest locally, NAMIC chapters work to build skills, create networking opportunities, participate in innovative programs and cultivate and develop leaders. NAMIC chapters provide important connections to local communities and keep members informed and in touch.
