| The San Diego Chapter consists of over 1,100 members including government, academia, and industry leaders from the San Diego area. Our Chapter concentrates on the global security and Information Technology community, and we have a persistent relationship with the Naval Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR), the Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific, and Program Executive Office for C4I. For over 30 years, our San Diego Chapter has co-hosted an annual Spring C4ISR Symposium with the Navy which attracts speakers and attendees nationwide. We hold monthly luncheons/socials featuring key note speakers from the Government, military, and local and regional commercial organizations which are well attended by both Industry and Government officials. We sponsor a Veteran Retraining Initiative and Job Fair events each year in association with AFCEA WEST and the Navy's Gold Coast Small Business Conference. We also have a very active Young AFCEAN following with quarterly events, and we host several Small Business meetings and presentations. Our Chapter has a very strong Educational Foundation and we provide thousands of dollars of scholarships each year to both students and teachers. We work with local schools to install computers for the education and training of students. We also hold an Annual Science Fair and Robotics event for educational recipients, and educational seminars. |
