networking event.
Meet The Primes
Meet the Primes is an inclusive procurement networking event where small BIPOC-owned firms have an opportunity to network with Prime Contractors and learn firsthand about contracting opportunities and available resources! This event aims to foster meaningful connections between BIPOC-owned businesses and organizations and will serve as an invaluable stepping stone for small, BIPOC-owned businesses to find work and grow.
Co-hosted by Propeller and ThriveNOLA, Meet the Primes is dedicated to promoting equitable procurement practices and facilitating engagements that empower small businesses. Through this event, participating businesses will have the chance to present their offerings and engage in 1:1 discussions with representatives from participating organizations. This intimate setting ensures that anchors and primes can truly get to know the small businesses, understand their strengths, and explore potential collaborations.
