Agencies/organizations of concern for $100k threshold

NASA (~ 35 attendees, plus $18k of direct support)DOE/Sandia (~ 23 Sandia attendees, plus $6k of direct support)Vanderbilt Univ. (~ 32 attendees)– Primary source of support is from

government grants– Sequestration? Delays? Pressure to

reduce travel expenditures?
