October*

** **

The Office of Naval Research (ONR) will host its biennial Naval Science and
Technology (S&T) Partnership Conference October 22-24 in Arlington,
Virginia.  Similar to events hosted by ONR’s Army and Air Force
counterparts, the conference provides researchers interested in ONR with
the opportunity to hear from agency leadership about current priorities and
to learn about how specific research ideas may align with them.  As
Lewis-Burke Associates LLC has previously reported, the significant
autonomy enjoyed by DOD program managers in making funding decisions
enhances the importance of building personal relationships and raising
profile by attending events like the S&T Conference.  Anticipated speakers
at the event include Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus, Chief of Naval
Research Matthew Klunder, Marine Corps Commandant James Amos, and other
senior Navy officials.  ONR program managers will also attend, which
provides an excellent networking opportunity for interested researchers to
engage with staff on future ONR research objectives. ****

Additional information on the Conference, including a complete agenda and
registration information, is available at
http://www.onr.navy.mil/en/Conference-Event-ONR/science-technology-partnership.aspx.

Please pass this information along to any faculty who might be interested
in attending.  It would be worthwhile to have a UH presence at this event.**
