    Last Week to Submit for Innovation Days in Austin

    The Army is looking for new technology that can be in the hands of Soldiers by 2023. So we're inviting companies to share their ideas for the chance to "pitch" us during Innovation Days in Austin and earn a new Army contract. To be considered, submit your concept through our online portal, which guides you through the required information in a Turbo Tax® style. You can find more information on what to include in this quick overview or via the announcement. You may not know all of the answers, and that's ok. The more technical details, visuals, and vision you can share to illustrate your technology, the better we'll be able to assess it against the Army's needs. The deadline to submit concepts for this event is 4:00pm ET on December 20, 2019. We can't wait to see what you've got! https://aal.army/innovationdays/
