The INX teaming event process begins when an opportunity is announced as “coming soon,” and the corresponding INX event date is released. At that time, organizations can register to either attend the event as a listener or present their capabilities to other interested participants. During the virtual event, presenters are given 3–5 minutes to share, depending on overall interest and the number of presenters. After the event concludes, all registrants receive follow-up resources including the presentation slide deck and contact information.

You can access the slide deck by filling out the Key Document Request form on the right.
