The Intelligent Community Forum® (ICF) is a network of communities and partners in the business and nonprofit sectors that provides economic development, training, certification, membership and consulting services. In a century dominated by digital, our mission is to help communities build innovative, inclusive and prosperous economies and cultivate strong social connections and rich and meaningful cultures. We do it for communities large and small, in urban clusters and outlying suburbs and rural places. We believe that digital connectivity and technology create the opportunity for almost every community to develop economic, social and cultural vitality – giving them all a chance to be great places to live, work, learn, grow, raise a family and prepare a path for the next generation.
