The Jan. Meeting Agenda will be organizing the Sept. Public Policy Breakfast.

Current Agenda Topic: Procurement Power Partner Breakfast

Statement of Purpose: New York is a dynamic and global marketplace. The MWBE Programs in New York City and New York State are designed to provide opportunities for minority and women businesses to become part of the procurement process through a certification, solicitation, training, and set aside programs. While the contract opportunities in New York are vast, they are also sometimes complicated and highly competitive.

Since work is always a collaborative effort, the purpose of this breakfast is to share skills and resources to meet our business needs. Attendees include prime contractors, Diversity Suppliers, and MWBE businesses. This is match-making breakfast will be a structured networking event.
