The Guam Post of the Society of American Engineers has extended the early bird registration deadline for the Guam Industry Forum 2024 to Sept. 10, 2024, to accommodate the peak in demand for this year’s event.

This highly anticipated Industry Forum hosted by S.A.M.E. Guam Post will be the organization’s third forum and will take place on Noc. 14 to Nov. 15, 2024, at the Dusit Thani Guam Resort in Tumon.

The theme for the Guam Industry Forum 2024 is “Building Security, Deterrence, and Resiliency in the Western Pacific.”

The event attracts companies from Guam and the Marianas, Micronesia, throughout the United States and the Indo-Pacific region to learn how they can participate in expanding America’s military readiness in the Pacific.

In collaboration with the Guam Contractors Association and the Guam Chamber of Commerce, the forum will focus on the growth in U.S. military projects, funding, and opportunities on the island which will bring additional needs and demands.

Subject matter experts from the Department of Defense, the Government of Guam, and the private sector will deliver valuable insights for local and international companies, contractors, suppliers, and service providers seeking regional opportunities.

Their contributions will be essential to advancing these local, regional, and national security and resilience efforts.

The two-day Guam Industry Forum 2024 will bring together speakers and attendees from around the world. Participants will have the opportunity to network and engage with decision-makers involved in military expansion projects in Guam and the West Pacific.

Attendees will gain insights on effective contract competition and potential partnerships, as they prepare to bid on over $11 billion worth of anticipated military expansion projects planned for the next five to ten years.
