Speaker: Christa Wilson, APEX Accelerator Associate Director

This one-hour training session designed to help two groups of business: (1) those just exploring or brand new to government contracting and (2) those down the path a bit looking to backfill some gaps.

This session covers the following areas:

• Introduction to the Government Contracting Process
• Components of a “GIB Ready” Business
• Suggestions for an Initial Marketing Tool Kit
• Reactive Business Development Strategies
• Proactive Business Development Strategies
• Introduction to the SBA’s Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS) database

In addition to the instruction, attendees will have the opportunity to receive handouts that are practical tools in helping develop your government contracting programs.

After attending the Veterans Florida Entrepreneur Program, you’ll have access to a Florida SBDC Business Consultant to assist you at no cost as you create your business plan and move toward your goals!

Refreshments will be provided.
