BALTIMORE - TelAve -- The U.S. Navy is reaffirming its commitment to cultivating the nation's next generation of technical talent by returning to the 2026 BEYA STEM DTX Conference, the nation's premier event celebrating excellence in science, technology, engineering, and math among diverse communities.

For over four decades, the BEYA Conference has served as a cornerstone for military, government, and private sector talent acquisition—connecting the best and brightest students and professionals from all walks of life with life-changing career opportunities. The Navy's active participation underscores a growing recognition of the critical role Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and underrepresented communities play in meeting national security and technology workforce demands.

"The Navy's return to BEYA reflects more than just a recruitment strategy—it's a powerful statement about the future of America's defense and innovation workforce," said Tyrone Taborn, CEO of Career Communications Group and STEM City USA. "This conference has been a launchpad for military and civilian careers alike, and we're proud to see the Navy doubling down on this vital pipeline."

Founded by the Council of Engineering Deans of the HBCUs, the BEYA STEM Conference operates at the intersection of federal policy and community empowerment. Under the Biden-Harris Administration's Executive Order on Advancing Educational Equity, Excellence, and Economic Opportunity through HBCUs, federal agencies are now mandated to allocate more resources toward initiatives that expand the pipeline of STEM and technology professionals.

"We stand at a historic moment when national priorities and community-led innovation align," said [Insert Navy Representative]. "BEYA offers the Navy access to a deep well of talent that is mission-ready, tech-savvy, and representative of the American people we serve."

In 2026, the Navy will engage students across K–12, college, and early career levels—offering interactive exhibits, real-time career opportunities, and mentorship from uniformed officers and STEM professionals. The conference's hybrid format through platforms like STEM City USA ensures access for participants across the country, transcending geographic and economic barriers.
