For In-Person Attendees: No ID Required: You will not need to present an ID for entry. Company Sign-In: A sign-in sheet will be available. We ask that each company sign in once. Companies that requested two seats will have two slots. We will rely on companies to manage their own attendees. Information Card: Each company will receive a registration card to be turned in at the end of the day. This card will be used to collect contact information (Name, Email, Phone), note interest in partnering, and submit questions for the government.

The Government is preparing to host an Industry Day, and this RFI is intended to make that event as productive as possible. To ensure the Industry Day directly addresses your most pressing questions, we are asking for your input now. To facilitate a focused dialogue, we ask that you submit your questions prior to the event. We request that you submit suggested discussion topics, or concerns you would like to see included on the Industry Day agenda. Your feedback is critical for structuring an event that is relevant and directly addresses the key interests of industry. When submitting, please clearly identify which questions are suitable for public discussion and which you consider proprietary.
