Small Disadvantaged Businesses: Step Up and Do Business with NASA

The NASA Office of Small Business Programs (OSBP) is pleased to announce its upcoming virtual event: Small Disadvantaged Businesses (SDBs)…Step Up and Do Business with NASA. The virtual outreach and networking event takes place on Thursday, July 20, 2023, from 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. ET.

While all small businesses are welcome to attend, the event is especially designed for SDBs… there is a place for YOU at NASA! Attendees will hear from agency programs and learn about procurement opportunities and resources at NASA and throughout the federal government. This event will unpack how to engage with the agency strategically and successfully.

The educational session will share knowledge on how SDBs can “step up” and do business with NASA, offer guidance to successfully engage with agency partners, and provide in-depth instructions on how to certify as an SDB, in order to leverage non-traditional and emerging opportunities to grow their federal business. Attendees can also look forward to receiving an exclusive demo of the brand-new NASA Vendor Database. Did we mention that the event will feature SDB success stories? This is a great opportunity for attendees to learn from fellow SDB peers and find out how they achieved success by migrating into the federal government arena.

But wait…yes, there is more! Afterward, attendees will have the open opportunity to network with NASA’s Small Business experts and federal OSDBUs who can counsel attendees about the prime and sub-contracting process and other available opportunities. Attendees will also be able to engage with 12 virtual exhibitor booths and download valuable information to support their business!

We are excited to present that this event will be hosted on the NASA Virtual Event Platform, powered by Communiqué, which will offer many interactive features that make it easy to network and build connections between online attendees and NASA experts.
