Become Part of the Industry's Strongest Voice

Global ITAD Alliance Members
Membership Overview

The IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) industry is at a pivotal moment, shaped by rising sustainability expectations, evolving regulations, and faster technology lifecycles. The Global ITAD Alliance (GIA) was created to provide a unified global voice: strengthening standards, elevating credibility, and reinforcing ITAD’s role within the circular economy. GIA brings together ITAD operators, IT asset managers, OEMs, recyclers, brokers, and sustainability leaders to align priorities and turn collaboration into action. More than a forum, GIA is a platform for progress. Membership places your organization at the center of this collective effort, offering visibility, influence, and access to initiatives that enable you to lead as the ITAD industry continues to evolve.
