Event description

HOW DOES THE U.S. GOVERNMENT KEEP CRITICAL MANUFACTURING ALIVE?

Join APEX Accelerators for a dynamic, fast-paced session led by Elizabeth Adams of the Vermont APEX Accelerator. In this beginner-friendly webinar, we’ll break down two powerful yet often overlooked programs: DPA Title III and IBAS (Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment). These behind-the-scenes tools are actively shaping the nation’s industrial future and they may be more relevant to your organization or region than you realize.

What you’ll learn:

 - DPA Title III and IBAS explained in plain English: what they are and why they matter
 - How these programs strengthen U.S. manufacturing, supply chains, technology development, and workforce readiness
 - Real-world success stories from APEX Accelerators across the country
 - How to identify whether your business or community can benefit from these under-the-radar opportunities
