The Missile Defense Agency’s 5th Annual Industry Day is being held August 11-12, 2009, at the Hyatt Regency, 200 South Pine Avenue, Long Beach, CA. The conference is expected to draw representatives from small and large businesses in the high technology R&D sector. Attendees will have the opportunity to sign up for one-on-one sessions with key MDA technical representatives and industry personnel as well as hear overview presentations from key MDA technology leaders.
MDA’s goal is to realize a return on investment by acquiring technology that can be transitioned into the Ballistics Missile Defense System (BMDS). The intent of the conference is simple. A better informed small business community is more likely to submit stronger, more focused proposals and minimize duplication and mistakes- enhancing the SBIR/STTR process for MDA and the Small Business Community. The Industry Day will provide small businesses with a “one-stop shopping” opportunity to learn as much as they can about the MDA SBIR and STTR programs.
The Industry Day will focus on enhancing the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) process for the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) and the Small Business Community.
