Cyber Security Trade Mission to Turkey

ACTION: Supplemental notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The United States Department of Commerce, International Trade 
Administration, is amending the Notice published at 80 FR 76670 
(December 10, 2015), regarding the Information and Communication 
Technology Trade Mission to Turkey, scheduled for November 28-December 
1, 2016, to amend the title, dates, and deadline for submitting 
applications for the event.

[[Page 44272]]


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Amendments to Revise the Event Title and 
Dates.

Background

    Due to the U.S. holidays around the original dates of the mission, 
it has been determined that to allow for optimal execution of 
recruitment and event scheduling for the mission, the title of the 
mission was amended from ``Information and Communication Technology 
Trade Mission'' to ``Cyber Security Trade Mission,'' and the dates of 
the mission modified from November 28-December 1, 2016, to December 5-
8, 2016. As a result of the shift of the event dates the date of the 
application deadline is revised from September 6, 2016 to the new 
deadline of September 16, 2016. Applications will now be accepted 
through September 16, 2016 (and after that date if space remains and 
scheduling constraints permit). Interested U.S. companies and trade 
associations/organizations providing cyber security products and 
services which have not already submitted an application are encouraged 
to do so.
    The proposed schedule is updated as follows:
