The Next Generation of GEOINT

The USGIF Young Professionals Golden Ticket Program offers the opportunity for exceptional young professionals to receive complimentary, full registration and access to exclusive GEOINT 2015 events.

“This is the fifth group of young professionals to receive the Golden Ticket to the GEOINT Symposium,” said Carrie Drake, USGIF’s senior manager of volunteer engagement. “Each year I am impressed with the participants and how they embrace this incredible experience.”

This year’s Golden Ticket program will include luncheons with NGA Director Robert Cardillo and co-author of “Rebels at Work” Carmen Medina, special mentoring sessions, the invitation-only USGIF Chairman’s reception, and networking receptions. Golden Ticket winners will also participate in the GEOINT 2015 outreach project by hosting families for the first-ever ScavenGeo Dash in the exhibit hall Thursday from 1 to 3 p.m. Stop by the YPG Lounge in the USGIF booth (1033) to say hello to this outstanding group of future GEOINT leaders.
