"With the growth of the IEM product category over the past 25 years, it’s important to have a trade organization dedicated to meeting the needs of both manufacturers and end users while promoting the use of in-ear monitors. Sensaphonics is proud to be a founding member of IEMITO.”
Hi, I'm Mike Dias, the Executive Director of IEMITO. I’ve worked in this industry for nearly 20 years, watching it grow from prototypes on tour buses to a global category spanning pro audio, MI, and consumer markets. Along the way, I’ve been fortunate to call many of the IEMITO founding partners friends.
I also serve as Executive Producer and Narrator of Can I Get a Little More Me, the definitive feature documentary on the hidden history of in-ear monitors. Across both roles, my focus is the same: building trust, strengthening relationships, and making sure the real story of this industry—and the people behind it—gets told.
Our mission is to advance & promote the use, adoption, and enjoyment of in-ear monitors
