Thanks to our Guardian Sponsor!

The Government Technology & Services Coalition is extremely pleased to host the First Annual State Department Days to examine the missions, programs, and goals of the U.S. State Department.  Webinars feature keynote speakers, panel discussions, and subject matter discussions for approximately 1.5-2 hours daily.

GTSC continues to bring you the people, information, and collaboration necessary to understand our government partners.  For our first State Department Days, we will host discussions around the Department's procurement goals, IT transformation initiatives, their small business strategy, and much more.

 

LOGISTICS: For State Department Days 2021 you will receive the login information for the day's webinar before 10:00 am EST each day.  You have the option of registering for both the full series or individual sessions.  If you registered for the full series, you'll get your link to join the webinar each morning and do not need to register for individual sessions. Registrations for individual sessions work the same way -- you will receive your access link the morning of the session.

 

PLEASE mark both gtscoalition.com and hstoday.us as safe senders with your email system to ensure you get the information.  

 

Thank you for participating and we look forward to a great week!
