SUMMARY:Capital Growth Session II: Best Practices in Securing Government Contracts
DESCRIPTION:Capital access and growth are long-standing pain points of minority-owned businesses across the nation and in the Greater New Orleans (GNO) region.  Minority-owned businesses\, consequentially\, have been disproportionately affected during the current economic downturn. As such\, Greater New Orleans\, Inc. (GNO\, Inc.) and the Urban League of Louisiana (ULLA) are hosting a series of virtual discussions to dissect opportunities for minority-owned small businesses to increase their ability to access capital and to create viable\, sustainable ventures that create generational wealth. \nGovernment contracts can yield long-term\, high-dollar opportunities.  Gaining the skills and tools necessary to secure such contracts can be critical to expanding and scaling a business\, particularly in the midst of a global pandemic. This discussion will detail opportunities for minority-owned small businesses to bid on available local\, state and federal procurement contracts. \nPresenters \nJo Ann Lawrence\, Deputy Director\, SBA – Louisiana District Office \nPaula Roddy\, DOTD Program Director\, Compliance and Program Section\, LADOTD \nChristina Dayries\, Assistant Deputy Director\, Grants and Administration\, GOHSEP \nNoel Williams\, Owner\, Legacy Restoration & Referral \nModerator: Jasmine Brown\, Public Policy Manager\, GNO\, Inc. \nThere is no cost to attend this session\, however registration is required.
