Federal Contracting Opportunities For Rural Small Businesses – POSTPONED
Unfortunately, due to the government shutdown, some of the featured presenters are unable to participate, and therefore, we have decided to POSTPONE this session until early 2026; a new date will be shared after we are able to communicate with all the presenters again.
Learn how rural businesses can tap into federal contracting opportunities and benefit from special certifications like HUBZone & woman-owned. Hear success stories and practical advice from newly-certified northcentral Wisconsin businesses sharing their experiences with pursuing government contracts from noon to 1:00 pm virtually on Thursday, October 30, 2025.
Federal government contracting can open new doors for rural businesses — from expanding customer bases to creating steady revenue streams. This FREE event will highlight why small businesses should consider pursuing these opportunities and explore the advantages of certifications such as HUBZone, woman-owned, or veteran-owned.
Representatives from the Small Business Administration (SBA) and Wisconsin Procurement Institute (WPI) will discuss the basics & benefits of government contracting. Attendees will also hear directly from northcentral Wisconsin businesses who already have special certifications and are actively pursuing federal government contracts. These local leaders will share their experiences, challenges, and advice to help other rural businesses explore similar opportunities for growth and success.
