The VSO meets every two months to discuss, plan, and develop standards to support its members' interests. Observers are welcome. A meeting registration fee of $160 is charged for all in-person attendees. Non-members are welcome to attend (in-person or remotely) but a special registration code is required. Please email VITA with a request to attend with some details on your areas of interest.
VITA member company L3Harris has graciously offered us the use of their Technology Center facility in Palm Bay, FL for this meeting (not the Global Innovation Center in Melbourne from previous years)! All attendees, both in-person and via WebEx must register here at VITA.
All in-person attendees must register with VITA, then go to this link and register with L3Harris directly. Please complete both registrations by Tuesday November 22, 2022 at 11:59pm EDT for in-person attendees to allow L3Harris Security time to pre-process attendees.
Meeting Facility:
L3Harris Technology Center
1395 Troutman BLVD NE
Palm Bay, FL
Hosted Space Launch Beach Party
On Wednesday evening we will be having a Space Launch viewing party on the beach hosted by TBD! Come join us for a BBQ under the stars at TBD after Day 1 of meetings and hopefully see a launch take place. If you plan on attending, please register for that event separately. Spouses/SOs are welcome but must be registered to provide accurate head count for food.
