NAPC Conference
This conference brings small business communities together to encourage partnership/teaming relationships and increase competitiveness and opportunities in contracting.
Businesses seeking partnerships with diverse suppliers – including Native American firms, women-owned firms, 8(a) firms, SDB firms, HubZone firms, Veteran-Owned businesses, Service Disabled Veteran-Owned firms and all other small businesses looking to grow are welcome to participate.
The NAPC event provides small business suppliers the opportunity to come and meet one-on-one with federal, state, and corporate contracting officers or buyers. Through this event, there are many opportunities for suppliers to share information about their company and to gain business with government agencies and prime contractors. The conference also provides general sessions and various government contracting workshops on the processes, federal updates, and contracting specifics.
