It was an incredible evening onboard the iconic Battleship Wisconsin! The Hampton Roads Alliance, alongside the Hampton Roads Workforce Council and the Government of South Australia, brought together a dynamic gathering of Hampton Roads business leaders and defense-related companies from Australia for a reception after visiting Hampton Roads for a couple days. From fostering partnerships to sharing insights, it was a fantastic opportunity to delve into the vibrant defense and maritime industry supporting AUKUS. Thank you City of Norfolk Government, Norfolk Department of Development, and Nauticus for hosting us!
