Activities 2013 Tour date for the Army Materiel Command’s operation center (I’ve already

contacted Keith Dugas at Myra Gray’s office; I am waiting for a reply) MAPPS Legislative update – this would be a combined MAPPS/GEO Huntsville

meeting USGIF program update for small business – This would be a meeting in

conjunction with one or more small business program office directors from NGA, AMC or other

Joint Energy/GEO Huntsville meeting to get update on contract opportunities. BRAC/Washington Update: Explore invitations to Joe Ritch and or Bud Cramer for

more focused update on pending business of federal contracts. Innovation Forums: The attached email was submitted by Dan Holland of PESA.

His idea of asking certain companies to explore innovation in which Huntsville could be a leader is a good one. This might lead to regular innovation forums where we explore the synergies certain technologies and area expertise.

GEO Huntsville 2013 – what’s the theme for this year’s conference and do we combine it with Energy Huntsville.

Database development: Take our existing company/organization database and make certain that it is up-to-date and easily accessible by our members. It should become our reporting mechanism for stakeholders looking for information about GEO Huntsville and even individuals looking for our support (i.e. jobs, contracts, etc.)
