The annual Sea-Air-Space (SAS) Global Maritime Exposition will be held 04-06 April 2022 at the Gaylord National Resort and Conference Center, located in National Harbor, MD. SAS was founded in 1965 as a means to bring the U.S. defense industrial base, private-sector United States companies and military leaders together for an annual educational, innovative, and professional event located in the heart of Washington, DC. Sea-Air-Space is now the largest maritime exposition in the U.S. and continues as an invaluable extension of the Navy League’s mission of maritime policy, education, and sea service support. 2. This year’s exposition will feature U.S. Coast Guard senior leaders participating in panel discussions on the Arctic domain readiness; Indo-Pacific security strategy; cybersecurity; women’s leadership; illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing; energy and climate response; and more. This event will provide USCG participants’ professional development opportunities with the most up-to-date information regarding the current state of the defense industry, as well as a vision of the future. Dynamic luncheon and keynote speakers will provide members an open forum to fully disclose up-to-the-minute information relevant to CG missions which will improve CG processes and ensure we set the conditions for a better CG future. 3.
