Team Australia at AUSA Trade Exhibition 2006

The annual general meeting of the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) and defence trade exhibition is held in Washington DC in October each year. The dates for AUSA 06 are 9-11 October 2006.

The AUSA trade exhibition is one of only a few major defence trade shows held in the US. Although it has a predominantly land defence focus, AUSA’s Washington location and exposure to major US defence acquisition decision makers uniquely place it as a highly sought after forum for a wide range of smart technology exhibitors across the full defence and security spectrum.

This year, the Australian Government’s Department of Defence will be facilitating Team Australia participation at the exhibition. Companies and organisations wishing to be part of Team Australia at AUSA 06 should contact teamaustralia@defence.gov.au by 14 July at the latest. For more information on Team Australia see click here.
