Ready, Set, GROW! Procurement Connections Workshop

Are you interested in contracting opportunities with state government agencies?

Join us for the Ready, Set, GROW! Procurement Connections Workshop on June 18 in Prince George's County for insights on how the State of Maryland's small, minority, women, and veteran procurement programs work. Hear strategies to identify which agencies and departments buy what you sell and meet procurement officers during the open networking session. You can also connect with various resource partners to learn more about their small business services.

Come out and meet buyers from 18 different state and local agencies, departments, and universities at this live event. You'll learn the common products and services each unit purchases, what they are looking to buy right now, and what's in the pipeline. Procurement Participants include:
