Did you know that the federal government is the largest economy in the world? The state of California ranks number five, just ahead of the UK! Government agencies purchase everything from furniture to construction services to dog food (seriously!) and everything in between. If you sell it, the government probably buys it.

In this free one-hour webinar, we'll review multiple online tools to find out which government agencies buy what YOU sell. We'll cover federal, state, local (city/county), utility and even university and school district purchasing. The purpose of this webinar is to help you target agencies at the Norcal Procurement Expo.

This webinar is appropriate for all existing businesses, including those with zero government contracting experience, or those with many contracts under their belt. All businesses will learn something new!
