Market intelligence overview of DHS & specific info on small business opportunities
For our next breakfast meeting the AFCEA NOVA Small Business Committee has assembled a panel with diverse Department of Homeland Security expertise. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with two DHS senior leaders, a successful small business DHS contractor, and Fedsources, who will brief on technology opportunities across DHS.
This panel will provide information to help you understand DHS’ current goals, priorities, strategy, and upcoming small business procurements. Our panel will provide insight on what it takes to get through the door, and beyond the Small Business Office, to reach actual program staff who have opportunities & tasks.
If you're a small company seeking insights into teaming with Primes and/or getting through to the real Federal/Defense buyer, you should definitely plan to attend!
If you're a large company seeking the benefit of partnering with smaller, nimbler, more innovative Federal and DoD Small Business contractors, you should plan to attend!
