- Government readiness support — preparing your company to qualify and perform on defense contracts.
- Government contracting assistance with Acceleration Engineering, focused on identifying and pursuing government contract opportunities.
- Cybersecurity landscape and support from Synagex, MassMEP’s cybersecurity partner, including insights on defense-related cybersecurity requirements and available assistance.
- MassMEP’s Strategic Maritime Industrial Base Roadmapping — guiding manufacturers in aligning with defense and maritime supply chain needs.

Grant funding opportunities — leveraging state and federal programs to offset the cost of support and implementation.
Whether your company is already engaged with the defense sector or just getting started, this webinar will connect you with practical tools, expert partners, and funding to help you take the next step.
