The June workshop takes place on Wednesday, June 6 from 9:30 a.m. to noon at the Flint Public Library.
Dustin Frigy, Director of PTAC for the Regional Chamber says government contracting can provide an opportunity to diversify your business.
“Many businesses don’t think about government contracting when they are looking to grow,” said Frigy. “But they really should take a look at getting in on the over $500 billion government contracting market. There are many opportunities for businesses large and small to work with local, state and federal government departments. If you come to the seminar on June 6, we will show you the nuts and bolts of government contracting, so that you can explore the possibilities for your business.”
Attendees also will learn about the services and support the Regional Chamber PTAC has available to help with the contracting process. The workshop will benefit management and employees who currently support or have an interest in facilitating government contracting within their companies.
The seminar focuses on the following topics:
