The Dakotas have a strong tradition of supplying our military with the tools they need -- our goal is to help continue and expand that tradition. The Dakota Defense Alliance will raise the visibility of our defense-related manufacturers with the prime government contractors, increase their awareness of RFP opportunities coming out of DoD, and help facilitate collaboration on complementary objectives. The alliance will be a networking venue for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized manufacturers, in the Dakotas.
