Who Are We?

We are marketers.
In our "day jobs" we are responsible for marketing our companies, our clients and ourselves. Because the world of messaging is constantly changing, we recognize the importance of staying connected with other marketers in our community, and on the cutting edge of new techniques, tools and trends.

We are volunteers.
As your local link to the largest professional marketing organization in the country, you can count on us for great networking and professional development - helping you maintain your competitive edge, no matter what type of marketing is most important for you.

We are the Southeastern New England Chapter of the American Marketing Association.
Formally established in 1989 as a local chapter of the International American Marketing Association, AMASNE is a Rhode Island-based professional organization, driven by volunteers who are dedicated to advancing the practice of marketing and facilitating new opportunities for local marketing practitioners, students and educators. Our core mission is to be the premiere resource for advancing the practice of marketing and careers of marketing professionals in Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts.

The roots of the AMA can be traced to the early 1900's when the National Association of Teachers of Advertisers and American Marketing Society, comprised of marketers and marketing researchers, merged to bring together marketers, across all specialties to collaborate and inspire one another.
