Background
• In 2013, the ANA released the findings from the 2013 ANA In-House Agency Survey, which showed significant growth of in-house agencies at ANA client-side marketer member companies. In fact, the penetration of in-house agencies had increased from 38 to 58 percent, from our 2008 survey. Since then, the ANA has held In-House Agency Days in San Francisco and New York annually, and the attendance at and interest in these events have grown.
In 2017, the ANA created the ANA In-House Agency Committee, which quickly become one of our most popular. Leading from that popularity, we launched a sister chapter on the West Coast in 2018 and in the Midwest in 2019.
Key Findings

completed by full-time employees. - Only three in-house agencies do not also have an agency of record and only one of those in-house agencies does not work with external agencies at all.
