The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) is hosting a Virtual Small Business Roundtable on 10/23/2025 from 2:00:00 PM-4:00:00 PM Eastern.  Government participants will be the Program Executive Officer SOF Warrior, Director of Procurement, and Director of the Office of Small Business Programs.  This session will be hosted virtually.  Connection details will be provided upon selection to attend.

This event is open for Small Businesses only.

The Program Executive Office for Special Operations Forces Warrior (PEO-SW) aggressively executes responsive and tailored acquisitions to enable global SOF operations. The primary focuses of this event are the following warfighting areas: - Mobility - Individual and Ground Vehicles - Lethality - Operator Weapon Systems/Accessories, Ammunition, Demolition, Launched Effects, Target Acquisition, and Visual Augmentation Systems - Survival - Operator Protection, Load Carriage, Medical and Casualty Evacuation – Counter Unmanned Systems - Detect, Track, Identify, Deter, and Defeat – and Electromagnetic Warfare for all domain deep sensing – Electronic Surveillance, Electronic Attack, and Electronic Protect.

Intent of these meetings:  The PEO roundtables are intended to be an opportunity for firms to gain a general overview of the PEO.  These roundtables are not meant to be an opportunity for firms to present their capabilities to USSOCOM, or to receive a forecast of upcoming requirements.

USSOCOM would like to have participation from all socio-economic categories and a variety of industries.  Space is limited to 100 individuals; therefore, participation is restricted to one connection per small business.  Therefore, each firm shall only submit one request for one individual to attend. 

Please note that multiple people from the same firm may participate, as long as it is from the same connection (ex.  Multiple people gather in a conference room and participate using the conference room computer.)

Requesting multiple slots may result in no participants from the firm being selected to participate.

Expected of attendees:

We are actively soliciting your comments/feedback.  Please be willing and prepared to engage/discuss.

When discussing barriers or ways to do business easier, please provide examples of issues and possible solutions.
