Barksdale AFB Technology Expo

This highly successful event debuted in 2013, and had a big jump in attendance in 2014 to over 200 personnel and has garnered additional support from the local AFCEA Chapter and will be an outstanding event in 2016. Barksdale is home to the Air Force's newest command, Air Force Global Strike Command. AFGSC was activated in August, 2009, and is responsible for the nation's three intercontinental Balistic Missile Wings, two B-52 Stratofortress Wings and the only B-2 Spirit Wing. The "Mighty Eighth" Air Force, of World War II fame, is headquartered at the base. Barksdale is home to the 2nd Bomb Wing, 2nd Operations Group, 2nd Maintenance Group, 2nd Mission Support Group, the 2nd Medical Group & Reserve's 917th Wing. The 2016 Expo will be a great opportunity to reach personnel from the commands and units who use and procure technology for this important AFB and will be the only technology expo at Barksdale AFB in 2016.
