IOSTIA, the International Ocean Science and Technology Industry Association, is a small Washington, DC-based nonprofit trade association that represents companies delivering technology and services for a broad range of ocean-related fields. It operates as a 501(c)(6) organization and aims to create new opportunities and a favorable operating environment for science and technology firms that sustainably utilize the oceans. The association seeks to develop a unified voice on Capitol Hill and with regulatory agencies on issues specific to ocean science and technology. With the majority of its member companies located overseas, IOSTIA positions itself as an international industry body and plans to engage foreign embassies in Washington to help international firms enter the U.S. market. A recent development discussed in August involved launching IOSTIA and establishing leadership for government relations.
