[CO-SPONSORED BY]{.underline}: Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and the
National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)

[PLACE]{.underline}: **von Karman Auditorium, JPL, 4800 Oak Grove Drive,

[TENTATIVE AGENDA TO INCLUDE]{.underline}: Technical Presentations by
approximately 5 or 6 High Tech Small Businesses (which includes all
types of Small Businesses); Technical Discussions on content of
Technical Presentations among all attendees; and Networking and
Interface Opportunities between all attending Small Businesses and JPL,
Prime Contractors (Round Table) and government representatives (NASA,
SBA etc.). [All large and small businesses are invited to
attend.]{.underline}

Attendees can expect to:

\(1\) Listen to approximately five or six different Small Business
Technical Presentations and thereafter to participate in technical
discussions with JPL, Prime Subcontractors (Round Table), the SBA, NASA
and other businesses regarding the presentations**.**

\(2\) Improve knowledge and skills in evaluating technical requirements
and competing for High Tech opportunities in the federal government and
prime contractor sectors; and

\(3\) Networking between JPL, Round Table Prime Contractors, and
Government Representatives, and all attending Small Businesses to
exchange ideas and concepts, with emphasis on expanding R&D
subcontracting opportunities and partnering possibilities with other
large and small businesses.

Approximately 5 or 6 Small Businesses will be selected by JPL to make
technical presentations directly to JPL, Round Table Prime Contractors
and to government representatives. Any Small Business that would like to
compete for the opportunity to make a Technical Presentation must submit
a 6 page "Statement of Technical Capabilities" to JPL. JPL will select
the High Tech Small Businesses as Presenters whose capabilities relate
best to potential future JPL and prime subcontractor requirements.
Selected Small Business Presenters will be given a 20 minute total time
slot for Technical Presentations. In 2003 forty (40) companies presented
"Statements of Technical Capabilities," and 6 companies were selected
from this group as Science Forum 03' Technical Presenters. For complete
detail regarding past participation at the Science Forum 2004, see the
