GROWING YOUR BUSINESS THROUGH STATE CERTIFICATION AS A WOMEN-OWNED BUSINESS

Would your business benefit from State Certification as a Women Business Enterprises (WBE) or linking your business to public purchasers in search of goods and services?  Business owners of companies with a principal place of business in Massachusetts must attend a free, mandatory, two-hour pre-certification workshop before submitting an application for certification.  This workshop provides an overview of the WBE State certification process and the required documents that must be submitted when applying for certification. The workshop also provides a brief introduction to COMMBUYS (the Commonwealth’s procurement platform where bidding opportunities occur), the Small Business Purchasing Program, and the Supplier Diversity Program.   The certification application and instructions will be provided at the workshop. | FREE

**COMMBUYS Vendor Registration assistance is available after the workshop from 10:30-11:30am**
