The San Diego Chapter of NDIA (National Defense Industrial Association) and Navy Co-host SPAWAR are proud to present the 23rd Annual Navy Gold Coast Small Business Opportunity Conference, also simply known as the "Gold Coast"conference. Since its inception over 20 years ago, Gold Coast is co-hosted on a rotating basis by NAVSEA, NAVFAC, SPAWAR, NAVSUP, NAVAIR, and the US Marine Corps. The purpose of Gold Coast is to provide a forum to educate, guide, and assist businesses, especially small businesses, in working with the Government, primarily the Department of Defense. NDIA and SPAWAR have once again collaborated to bring interesting and motivating speakers that will present topics of interest with regards to working with the Government. Plan on attending informative and relevant general/plenary and break-out sessions. Visit over 250 industry and Government exhibitors along with dozens of posters containing company information and opportunities. As with any of these events, there are also plenty of opportunities for networking. August 22-24 San Diego Convention Center.
