Arrival & Welcome Reception
Check-in and informal discussion with hot buffet breakfast, coffee, and snacks.

The one hour you’ll be quoting for the rest of the year.

Findings from the one-year MxD project, and what they mean for Defense Industrial Base competitiveness.

Six TED-style short talks on industry challenges EIG is addressing. Five minutes each.
Lunch

Wrap-up and a summary of the actions developed in the Collaboration Labs.

Offsite Dinner
The insights that have transformed leadership teams across Fortune 50 organizations.
Jose Pires is a TEDx speaker, Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt, and CEO of Global Excellence & Innovation. His work has shaped decision-making in more than 1,000 cross-industry organizations.
The Collaboration Labs are by invitation. If one is relevant to your work, a collaboration team lead will reach out and bring you into the virtual session.
The closed-door executive conversations stay off-record. The value of that room requires it, and no stream changes that.
Founders, CEOs, operators, and senior leaders across manufacturing, supply chain, technology, and professional services: anyone responsible for decisions that have to survive the next twelve months.
Twenty EIG partner experts are in the room in Austin. Eleven more are joining remotely. You’d be in good company.
The cost of not being there shows up later.
$200. Six sessions, live. The recording within a week.
Registration closes Monday, September 8; access links go out the day before.
