NDIA provides a platform through which leaders in government, industry and academia can collaborate and provide solutions to advance the national security and defense needs of the nation. NDIA convenes events and forums for the exchange of ideas, which encourage research and development, and routinely facilitates analyses on the complex challenges and evolving threats to our national security. NDIA now offers webinar, meeting, and conference content available On Demand for your review and information on your own time. See the On Demand link for available on-demand content.
The NDIA Policy team monitors, advocates for, and educates government stakeholders on policy matters of importance to the defense industrial base. Our mission is to ensure the continued existence of a viable, competitive national technology and industrial base, strengthen the government-industry partnership through dialogue, and provide interaction between the legislative, executive, and judicial branches. The Policy team also represents NDIA in several inter-association groups representing the defense industry and the government contracting community. Policy staff regularly meet with key policy stakeholders, and manage Congressional interactions with NDIA Chapters and Divisions.
With more than 1,800 Corporate members and 65,000 individual members, NDIA represents all sizes and sectors of the DIB. Small businesses, whose successes power the next generation of American innovation, comprise over half of NDIA corporate members. Join today to invest in your company's growth and the competitive advantage of our Warfighters!
NDIA Chapters, led by dedicated volunteer leaders, provide the critical foundation for our Association. Located in areas with a strong defense presence, military and industrial, Chapters encourage and enable government, industry and academic collaboration to define and solve our toughest defense challenges. With a deep knowledge of local missions and companies, Chapters truly work at the Heart of the Mission in their region. Get involved in a local chapter to amplify the impact of your company and our Association!
