The ILEA Northern California Chapter operates as the local chapter of the International Live Events Association, linking regional professionals to a global network of peers. ILEA itself serves a broad community of live-events professionals across dozens of chapters and many countries, focusing on education and networking to promote industry professionalism. The Northern California Chapter comprises 215 members and traces its origins to May 1991, and it is based in Soquel, California. The chapter's leadership is organized around a board of directors, with annual elections for one- or two-year terms, which governs local education programs, finances, and communications with members. Its members include a range of event professionals—planners, producers, caterers, decorators, florists, AV technicians, and related specialists—who benefit from education, professional development, and opportunities to grow their businesses through networking. As part of the events services industry, the NCC chapter situates itself within a global association that supports professional standards and knowledge sharing across a spectrum of event disciplines.
