Celebrating 40 years of helping small businesses grow and succeed
TAMPA (January 25, 2016) – The road to securing federal government contracts can be blurry and uncertain. Sometimes, it becomes treacherous and, very often, frustrating.
The Florida SBDC at University of South Florida will host the 29th Annual Government Small Business Conference: Roadmap to Winning Government Contracts, to assist small business owners in navigating that path by increasing the opportunity for small businesses, government agencies and major corporations to network and develop strategic relationships.
Whether small businesses are already committed to selling to the government or they would like to start diversifying sales, this National Small Business Week event is a unique opportunity for small business owners to learn how to optimize business’ opportunities through informative seminars, panel discussions and a Business Opportunity Expo that allows owners to meet with buyers from federal, state and local government agencies, as well as large corporations.
Seminars include “Providing a Responsive submission to Government Requirements,” “Doing Business with the Treasury- SEC, OCC, CFPB,” and “Is Your Business Financially Positioned to Provide Goods/Services to the FedGov?”.
In addition, the conference will feature a Veterans Resource Center serving as a one-stop shop for Veteran entrepreneurs to gather all the information necessary to successfully venture into government contracting.
Cost: $149
