For local entrepreneurs eyeing new opportunities, the Cobb County Government, alongside the Cobb County School District, is serving up an informative evening that could spell out the future of their business dealings. ‘How to do Business with Cobb’, a seminar designed to guide business owners through the process of becoming a vendor with the county government and schools, has been slated for Thursday, Oct. 16, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Cobb Civic Center.
The event, an annual tradition since 2011, is a collaborative effort initiated by District 3 Commissioner JoAnn K. Birrell and the Keep it in Cobb committee, seeking to foster local economic growth and engagement. “This seminar is an excellent opportunity for business owners to learn about the needs of the County and the Schools, network with department representatives, and learn the step-by-step process to become a vendor,” Birrell underscored, in a statement obtained by the official Cobb County website. Considering the potential it holds, savvy business proprietors might find this seminar integral to their expansion plans.
Attendees can expect to shake hands with the very people who might later sift through their bids and proposals, the department representatives who know the ins and outs of county needs like the back of their own hands. The session will cover everything from the initial interest to the final handshake of vendor agreement.
Aspiring participants are encouraged to secure their spots by RSVPing, a process made simple through either an email to [email protected] or a call to 770-528-. Those who stake their claim early may just find themselves at the precipice of a beneficial partnership with one of Georgia’s robust local entities. The official announcement highlights the event’s utility for those looking to navigate the often complex terrain of governmental procurement.
