CONFERENCE OVERVIEW

Please join us for our 18th Annual ISOA Summit in Arlington, Virginia. At this three-day conference, our expert panels and keynote speakers will delve into opportunities for the private sector to deliver stability around the globe during this uniquely unstable time.

Panel topics include priorities for Ukraine and NATO; the Indo-Pacific region; tech, cyber and AI; what to expect after the U.S. Election; upcoming DoD, Department of State and USAID contracting opportunities; two leadership panels, and much more.

Plus, for the second year in a row, we’re starting off the conference with a full day Small Business Workshop – read more below.

As you’ve come to know, ISOA’s conferences provide numerous opportunities for networking and business matchmaking.

Join us for an informative conference, meet potential suppliers and vendors, and raise awareness of your brand through sponsorships, speaker participation, and active networking. We hope to see you in Arlington in November.

SMALL BUSINESS WORKSHOP

Based on the success of last year’s Small Business Workshop, we’re doing it again! If you are a small business – or if you partner with small businesses – please join us for this one-day workshop that kicks off the 2024 Summit on Tuesday, November 12. Representatives from U.S. Department of Defense, USAID, and U.S. Department of State will be on hand to present updates and recommendations. In addition, representatives from member companies will offer expert insights on legal pitfalls and ways to scale a small business. All this is included in your 3-day ticket to the Summit!

BUSINESS MATCHMAKING FORUM

Back by popular demand, we will once again hold a Business Matchmaking forum designed for your company to interact face-to-face with other companies and clients, developing new leads and possibilities to grow your business. We call it “speed dating for business.”

ISOA’s Business Matchmaking Sessions work like this: Matchmaking hosts sit at small tables with four chairs each. Companies who desire to meet with matchmaking hosts rotate around the room to sit across the table with desired hosts. Each session will last about 10 minutes. A bell is rung to signal the end of the session. All companies should have an opportunity to meet with their desired hosts. The short matchmaking meetings should be followed up with longer discussions at our networking sessions and beyond.
