About the Presentation:

Changes to defense industry spending are a certainty with each new political re-staging.   Florida and other states with a high percentage of military-linked corporations are particularly affected in recent years.   Where is it going?   When will it end?   What budget is available and where will it be spent short and long term; what share may central Florida see?   INCOSE Orlando is very interested in the views of the NDIA (the National Industrial Alliance Association) for trusted information regarding what is in store for this market.
