Are your small businesses selling to the government?

Last Updated 6/7/2022Posted in News


Many small businesses have still not recovered from the pandemic.  Despite EIDL loans and PPP, many are still hurting.

If you know business owners that are not selling to the city, county, state or federal agencies, they need to consider these opportunities!

Opportunities 2022 is right around the corner.  On June 6, the SBTDC is hosting this important event.

The US Government alone spends more than $500 billion annually for various products and services, yet each year, thousands of contracts bypass small businesses that do not know about or understand how the government buys. Opportunities 2022 is your chance to learn how you can tap into this lucrative market. It is a regional biennial “reverse” trade show and conference.

Market Face-to-Face
Market your company to federal, state, and local government agencies + prime contractors. It would require considerable time and expense to visit all the exhibitors represented at Opportunities on your own time and with personal resources.

Learn New Skills
Attend a series of seminars designed to provide the latest information on doing business with and selling products and services to the government.

Make Connections
Networking with other small businesses while at Opportunities could lead to contracting partnerships.
