SUMMARY:APEX Accelerator Orientation: Is Government Contracting Right for Your Business?
DESCRIPTION:This virtual event is free\, but registration is required: https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/3648f4bc-f736-4e8b-aa37-e578212425a8@253e7787-672d-4071-9290-fc3db5246db7 \nGovernment contracts are potentially a tremendous financial opportunity for small businesses. The U.S. government is the largest customer in the world. It buys all types of products and services – in both large and small quantities – and it’s required by law to consider buying from small businesses. Join the APEX Accelerator’s office to learn about assessment tools you can use to evaluate your company’s readiness to enter the government marketplace. \nEast Michigan APEX Accelerator is funded in part through a cooperative agreement with the Department of Defense (DOD)\, and in part by the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC).
