Doing business with the government, large corporations, and business-to-business has helped many small companies grow and develop.  Before a small business can compete for such contracts, though, it must be ready.   

The Arkansas Procurement Opportunities Conference planning committee will offer training to make sure businesses know everything they need to know to participate in this event as well as answer some of the following questions.  If you are planning to attend this session, please contact to Susie Marks at (501) 210-4206 or email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
