10th National Small Business Conference

The National Defense Industrial Association is hosting the 10th National Small Business Conference at The Waterford in Springfield, VA on September 25, 2013. 

Sequestration and declining defense budgets make this a challenging time for anyone who sells to the federal government. Yet, despite the challenges, there is a bright spotlight being focused on small business. This means small businesses, now more than ever, have an opportunity to get their foot in the door or grow their market to help ensure America’s defense remains the strongest most innovative defense in the world.

NDIA is gathering program managers and other customers from across the military services, Homeland Security, and other federal agencies to talk about actual, upcoming requirements for FY14. The focus will be on small business: who is looking for small businesses, for what opportunities, and when will requirements be shaped and publicly released? Attendance at the National Small Business Conference is mandatory for any small, medium or large-sized business looking to win prime contracts, find good partners for winning teams, and gather business intelligence for the upcoming fiscal year.

In addition to talking directly with program managers and other requiring authorities, attendees will hear from government leaders in Homeland Security about cyber security threats to small business and from policy and legislative front line managers who will share how small businesses can get involved in shaping laws, regulations and department policy. Whether you’re a seasoned, well-established contractor or a business looking to join the government contracting world, this Conference is a must-attend event.

Please join us on September 25 and be prepared to make connections, get actionable intelligence, and follow up on multiple leads.
