Many small businesses find the process of trying to sell to the
federal government difficult at best and mystifying at worst. This
session will equip business owners with the keys needed to open
the doors to these markets.
OCRI's Government Opportunities Breakfast is targeted to senior
level executives and managers of small and medium-sized private
sector IT companies. The goal of these sessions is to improve supplier
and buyer awareness and simplify access to federal government purchasing
information. This series will create a clear understanding of the
requirements, roadblocks and opportunities that both the government
and private sector face.
