This year, the SW Region Conference is featuring expert panelists discussing the new fifth domain of warfare--Cyberspace!  Cyberspace has been added as equal importance to the other traditional areas of warfare--land, sea, air, & space.  Learn about national security challenges facing the government and military as they implement new policies that will develop Cybersecurity to protect from the emerging threat of Cyber Warfare.  In addition to the Cyberspace Panel, the conference will feature three additional panels featuring SW Region Military Installation Commanders, Aerospace & Defense Industry Experts, and Warrior Patriots--airmen & soldiers sharing their experiences of battle. This amazing event will be held at the Historic Wigwam Resort just 20 minutes from downtown Phoenix, Arizona 24 - 26 June 2011. 

We have a weekend full of activities including a full program of speakers, a golf tournament, an exhibit hall, a reception gala, luncheon, dinner dance, and more!  This will be the perfect weekend to network for your business, make connections, interact with government/industry/military leaders, meet friends, and stay informed.
