Are you a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) or a Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE)? If so, then you may be interested in the new $1.2 Trillion Infrastructure Act. This act funds state projects and imposes on some a 10% goal for Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs). Most state Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) program requirements overlap with DBE. So as the infrastructure funding is doled out, opportunities should abound for qualified entities as primes and subcontractors since most large primes will be required to certify that they have included such businesses in their plans.

In this webinar, government contracts attorney Matthew Moriarty will discuss why these certifications are important and how you can leverage them to take advantage of the Infrastructure Act opportunities.

Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity! Certify your business now and take advantage of all the benefits that come with being a DBE-certified business. You won’t regret it!

Target Audience: Small businesses interested in diversifying through government market opportunities and those that want more information on Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs), Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE).
