The Global Technology Industry Association (GTIA) is the only vendor-neutral, non-profit membership community connecting and representing the worldwide IT channel. We set our members up for success by providing benefits that include trusted resources and networking opportunities. In addition, the association sets industry standards that enable companies to build sustainable, secure and profitable businesses in an ever-changing technology landscape. Internationally, GTIA represents tens of thousands of professionals from more than 2,000 MSPs, solution providers, vendors, distributors, and other companies serving the channel.  

We were formerly known as the CompTIA Community (the membership arm of CompTIA).  The association was renamed as GTIA in 2025, but that’s not where our story begins. Our association has a long history of serving businesses in the IT channel and technology professionals.   

We work with our partners to deliver solutions and services to make your clients’ and customers’ IT environments more secure and compliant and future proof these solutions by tailoring these to suit their needs and requirements.
