Nevada is home to several military and national security installations including Nellis Air Force Base\, Creech Air Force Base\, Naval Air Station Fallon\, and the Nevada National Security Site. We will explore how this sector impacts industries\, workforce development\, local businesses\, and the broader economy in Nevada. This engaging discussion will provide key insights into the evolving landscape and its implications/opportunities for businesses\, policymakers\, and local residents. |  | Fast Facts:Nevada is home to four major military and national security installations. In Clark County alone\, these installations employee some 17\,200 members of the military (CBER estimate).Each year federal defense spending contributes $7 billion to the Nevada economy (chained $2017 dollars).Nevada is home to several midsized defense and national security firms along with contingents from several national security laboratories and large defense companies.The rethinking of national security priorities presents opportunities for expansion and entrepreneurial activities in this industry\, some of which will spill over into Nevada.|  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n | Thank you to the Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance for their generous support of this event. |  | Brews and Economic Views brings together academia\, government\, business owners\, and community organizations to discuss emerging technologies and trends in Nevada’s twelve economic sectors in an informal setting that fosters discussion\, emceed by CBER’s Director\, Andrew Woods. |  | PANELISTS |  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n | Matthew FritzManager\, Technology Partnerships and IPNevada National Security SiteMatt Fritz is the Manager of Technology Partnerships and Intellectual Property (TPIP) office in the Science & Technology (S&T) directorate.
