Our local, regional and state government bodies provide a variety of contract opportunities for small businesses but navigating the process can be intimidating. What is critically important? What niches are being filled? Where can you find RFPs and RFQs for both services and large projects? Join us for an informative panel discussion with agency experts to find out what they look for when awarding government contracts, followed by a Q&A.
