Give Me 5: Follow the Money

Women-owned small businesses can benefit greatly from government contracting. The government has a goal to award at least 5% of all federal contracts to women-owned small businesses (WOSBs). Although this goal was met for the first time in FY15, the government fell slightly short in FY16, awarding just 4.79% to WOSBs.

In order to help WOSBs gain a competitive edge, Give Me 5 is hosting a free webinar, “Give Me 5: Follow The Money” on Oct. 25, which will provide specific information on how businesses can build a government strategy—including a checklist for success. The webinar will also cover best practices for using public information to find out what goods and services government agencies buy and how to market to them. The webinar will be led by Ann Sullivan, President, Madison Services Group, Inc. & Chief Advocate, WIPP Government Relations.
