The Huntsville Aerospace Marketing Association (HAMA) is THE organization for aerospace business development professionals in the Tennessee Valley. HAMA members represent over 100 companies that support local federal government agencies. An incorporated, nonprofit organization, HAMA was founded in 1990.

• Promote and maintain better interaction, communications, and relations between aerospace industries and local federal government agencies
  
• Promote and maintain better interaction, communications, and relations among local aerospace industries
  
• Provide government agencies an efficient and effective single point of broad industry contact
  
• Provide an industry forum which can be used for organizing and promoting activities on important issues of common interest.
  

HAMA monthly membership meetings, held the second Friday of each month, provide the best networking opportunity as well as an informative forum for briefings and discussions on topics of interest to the Huntsville aerospace community led by a government or industry speaker. HAMA's luncheon/discussion format allows HAMA members to interact with and respond to the speakers. Additionally, this format gives guest speakers an opportunity to meet and talk with a large number of key industry representatives in an informal atmosphere. Often, this interaction helps clarify regulations, provides critical information on policies and priorities, and gives HAMA members a better understanding of the purposes and intentions of both government agencies and prime contractors.

Because of the caliber of both the membership and the speakers, HAMA meetings are popular events. And, although attendance generally is restricted, HAMA members may invite other industry guests to attend and participate in the meetings.

HAMA's monthly membership meetings promote fellowship, interaction, and participation among members. HAMA members explore potential teaming opportunities, find out about upcoming procurements, get explanations of important policy changes, and find out who to contact for a particular requirement. The meetings provide members with an effective network for acquiring and disseminating information. In addition, HAMA typically conducts several social activities, field trips/plant tours and educational seminars during the course of the year.
