Mission of the GovCon Advancement Mentoring & Engagement (GAME) Committee 

The GovCon Advancement Mentoring & Engagement (GAME) Committee serves as a dynamic forum uniting government, military, and industry professionals across the GovCon ecosystem. Our purpose is to build bridges between experience and opportunity—connecting senior and emerging leaders in STEM, leadership, and federal service through intentional mentorship, engagement, and collaboration.


GAME fosters an inclusive, cross-generational community where members can learn, lead, and give back—strengthening the workforce that powers innovation and national security.

You joined AFCEA NOVA. Now what?

For a lot of members — new and longtime alike — that question is harder to answer than it should be. The events, the committees, the relationships, the opportunities. It's a lot to navigate, and most people only scratch the surface.

This free webinar is here to change that.

 

Join AFCEA NOVA's Membership and GAME committees for an honest, practical conversation about how to actually get the most out of your membership — and how to build the kind of presence in GovCon that opens doors over time.

 

 

What we'll cover:

  • How to make sense of the AFCEA NOVA ecosystem and where to start
  • What it really takes to go from attendee to recognized community member
  • The engagement strategy that works — Learn, Participate, Volunteer
  • Why reducing perceived risk matters just as much as demonstrating capability
  • How GAME accelerates your path through mentorship and structured engagement
  • What's coming May 5 — and why you won't want to miss it
