International Academic Competitions is a global consortium that runs a portfolio of academic contests for primary and secondary students, spanning more than 25 countries. Based in Burlington, Vermont, the organization operates in the events services sector and seeks to recognize academic achievement by offering innovative, fair, and relevant competition opportunities. The organization is led by Nolwenn and David Madden, a French-American couple with extensive experience in participating, volunteering, directing, and administering competitions. Its staff includes tournament directors, question writers, logisticians, and administrative personnel who support the design and delivery of these events.

Its work targets primary and secondary students and their schools by providing opportunities that complement classroom learning, build confidence, assist with university admissions, and foster a sustained interest in learning. The organization aims to refine its existing competitions and develop new ones across additional cities, regions, and countries. A recent development is the plan to host the 2025 International History Olympiad in Paris, signaling ongoing international expansion.
