Security NA · DallasFrom intelligence to introduction. From introduction to opportunity.
85+ executives. 200+ active projects.
One carefully engineered room.
Each program brings together a minimum of 85 executives. Every executive provides GDS with 2–3 active project briefs covering challenges, budgets, timelines, responsibilities and desired outcomes. We complement the delegation with a maximum of 30 solution and service partners—and cap participation at three partners within each technology or service area to avoid pitch-offs.
