Guest Speaker

The Iowa-Illinois NDIA Chapter is honored to announce Joshua Frank as a featured keynote speaker for the upcoming 16th Annual Midwest Government Contracting Symposium.

With over 30 years of experience and more than $14.6 billion in government contract wins attributed to his guidance, he has helped over 25,000 companies compete and succeed in the federal marketplace.

His upcoming session, “Government 2.0: How to Survive, Thrive, and Emerge from Disruption in the Federal Marketplace,” will provide critical insights on the systemic changes reshaping procurement—touching on executive orders, AI integration, socio-economic program reform, and how businesses can position themselves to adapt and grow in a rapidly evolving environment.
