Connecting People and Ideas
The Rocky Mountain Chapter is proud to sponsor the premier annual Rocky Mountain Cyberspace Symposium (RMCS) at the world class Broadmoor resort. This event attracts senior government, military, industry executives and academics to discuss the ever challenging cyberspace domain and ways to share information and best practices that can improve current and future cyberspace operations.

RMCS is our major fundraising event that enables our chapter to provide the much-needed funding for the local community's STEM programs.
Gratitude
A sincere thank you from our community.
Below is a message from our community. As well as a picture displaying the fruits of their work and our support.
"I just wanted to send a quick message of gratitude to you.
The grant you awarded us this year enabled our students to learn a great deal. They learned to use a new type of swerve drive, and the flywheels made it possible to intake and shoot during the competition.
We also wanted to thank you for inviting us to the cyber space symposium last year. This inspired one of our seniors to head into that field in the future."
