JPL SPACE SCIENCE SYMPOSIUM FOR SMALL BUSINESS IN WASHINGTON, D.C. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will host the "6th ANNUAL JPL SPACE SCIENCE SYMPOSIUM FOR SMALL BUSINESS" tentatively set for October 18. Small businesses in the high-tech industry are invited to attend this event at NASA Headquarters in Washington, D.C. REGISTRATION: There is no fee to attend; however, early registration is recommended as space is limited. PURPOSE: JPL is committed to doing business with high-tech, small businesses and seeks to expand its supplier base for present and future technical requirements. This one-day event is to introduce high-tech small businesses to JPL that may lack the resources to market the Laboratory's high-tech requirements in Southern California. FOCUS: The Symposium is an interactive and informative session highlighting JPL's and NASA's Science-related programs and initiatives to potential small business suppliers. TENTATIVE AGENDA: Overview of Technical Programs in the areas of Space and Earth Science, Support Subcontracts, Major Task-Order Contracts, Marketing Tips, Technology and Partnering and other major programs and initiatives. Representatives from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center and other prime contractors are scheduled to attend. HOW DO I SIGN UP?
