Membership at a Glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Curious which level is right for your company? Below you\u2019ll find an overview of the four types of membership:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Associate Members<\/mark><\/strong> use standards-based IoT products but do not directly build or manufacture them. To join at the Associate level and certify white-label products, a company must partner with an Alliance Participant or Promoter member through our Certification Transfer Program<\/mark><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adopter Members<\/mark><\/strong><\/a> use existing, approved specifications to build products. Adopters can access completed, approved standards documents, certify products through Alliance certification programs, and use Alliance technology logos and trademarks for certified products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participant Members<\/mark><\/strong><\/a> contribute to and develop standards they will later adopt and use. Participants can access Alliance Working Groups, are hands-on in developing specifications, and gain early access to draft specifications and testing, with opportunity to develop and get to market faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Promoter Members<\/mark><\/strong> contribute to, develop, and adopt Alliance standards and enjoy all other member level benefits. Promoters help lead the Alliance with final approval on all standards, hold a seat on the Alliance Board of Directors, and  may lead and participate in Board Committees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
