Companies, businesses, leaders, students, professionals, policy makers, elected officials and entrepreneurs that deal with technology are encouraged to attend. The conference is scheduled for October 16 and 17, 2012 at the Baltimore Convention Center and Four Seasons Hotel.
Concerning the conference, Governor O’Malley said, “The eyes of the intelligence and information security community will be focused on Maryland during Natural Cybersecurity Awareness Month as we showcase industry innovations, recognize cyber pioneers and groom the next generation of cyber warriors.”
Gloria Larkin, President of TargetGov, is giving a presentation titled “Accelerating Entry into the Federal Cyber Market” which will focus on the cyber-related spending done by the federal government. It will help attendees gain new insights on the government marketplace and how they can enter it successfully.
Topics covered include:
• Funding trends
• Contract vehicles
• Positioning to win market share
• Federal cyber decision makers
• Fast-track tools for success
• Guaranteeing decision-maker meetings
As a nationally recognized federal contracting business development expert, Gloria is specially qualified to talk specifically about the government’s cyber needs. According to a recent Bloomberg Government Report, in the past five years defense spend $8.8 billion, or 58 percent of total federal cyber security spending and nondefense agencies accounted for 42 percent, or $6.3 billion.
Cybersecurity is a growth market amid federal budget reduction, but there is a significant time investment for trying to work with the government and reach a point where you’re seeing revenues for your efforts.
Early bird registration rates are still available, but prices go up after September 5th.
