Yesterday's dynamic Cyber, IT and AI Symposium was filled with friends, colleagues, smiles, handshakes, and hope for the future of our industries. From one great conversation to the next, I enjoyed the whole experience and found genuine inspiration in each meaningful interaction. Inspiration that I plan to carry into next quarter and the start of FY 2025. To those I had the pleasure of speaking with, keep up the great work! You're doing a phenomenal job, and it's only going to get better! Especially if/when we work together! Thanks again Warren Edwards, Fed Gov Con Connect LLC, and NCMA Bethesda Chapter for orchestrating such an inspiring event and allowing High Impact Partners (HIP) to help sponsor it. Everyone looked so nice in their lanyards! ?? #HighImpactPartners #governmentcontracting #govcon #networking #event #workforcedevelopment #professionaldevelopment #artificialintelligence #AI #informationtechnology #IT #cybersecurity #smallbusiness #smallbusinessowner #womanowned #womanownedsmallbusiness #womanownedbusiness #womeninbusiness #wosb
