NDIA - 25th Annual SO/LIC Symposium & Exhibition

"Seamless SO/LIC: Government and International Partnerships, Supported by Industry, for Global Employment"

Special Operations and Low-Intensity Conflict forces will continue their worldwide missions despite the drawdowns in the Middle East and budgetary constraints. Our nation will need to support SO and LIC forces across vast distances, in inhospitable terrain, and with minimal U.S. support. Effective support of U.S. and partner-nation SO/LIC forces will require a network of government, industry, and international partners to leverage the capabilities of each and minimize cost. This 25th Anniversary NDIA SO/LIC Symposium will explore integrating worldwide partners into support for global SO/LIC employment.

We are pleased to announce the following Keynote Speakers:

• The Honorable Frank Kendall, Under Secretary of Defense (AT&L) (Confirmed)
• The Honorable Carl Levin, Chairman, Senate Armed Services Committee (Invited)
• ADM William H. McRaven, USN, Commander, USSOCOM (Confirmed)
• Mr. Garry Reid, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense, SO/LIC (Confirmed)
