NAIPE 2024

Registration for this event is now closed.

We are pleased to announce the NSA Acquisition/Industry Partnership Exchange (NAIPE) on Tuesday, April 16, 2024 at the Conference Center at the Maritime Institute.

NAIPE is not a "How to do Business with NSA" event. This event is formulated to benefit contractors currently working with our Agency and already possessing a deep understanding of our business practices. COMPANIES REPRESENTED MUST BE CURRENTLY ACTIVE ON AN NSA CONTRACT TO REGISTER AND ATTEND. 

The conference is unclassified. We encourage attendees to come prepared with questions to ensure the exchange is enlightening and beneficial for both NSA and Industry.

Registration: You must register online for this event. Registration is first-come, first-served, with a firm closing date of April 8, 2024. The $199 registration fee covers the cost of attending the event and conference materials, as well as: parking, breakfast, lunch, breaks, and a networking social. All registrations are considered final. No refunds or substitutions are permitted.

Limitations: NAIPE will allow up to two attendees per company.* Each person is required to register separately. Company is defined as distinct legal entity currently operating with its own employees and/or populated joint venture. Non-populated joint ventures, shell companies, wholly owned subsidiaries, etc. do not count as a company.
