U.S. Small Business Administration, Black Chamber Federal ...

The U.S. Small Business Administration has teamed up with the U.S. Black Chamber to help minority-owned small businesses gain access to opportunities that will lead to federal contracts. That includes networking with larger businesses and in-person meetings.

?During several scheduled forums, small businesses will learn how to market themselves to the federal government and go after federal contracting opportunities,? reports Black Enterprise. ?The forum also will offer help with strategic alliances, joint venture opportunities, and mentor-protege arrangements within the [SBA?s 8(a) Business Development program].?

The two organizations kicked off their partnership with an event on October 10 at the Carnegie Library in Washington DC, the?National 8(a) Training, Business Matchmaking and Awards Ceremony.

Black Enterprise also takes a look at one small business that has benefited from the 8(a) program: Tillage Construction, which has federal?contracts worth $20 million. Click here to read more.
