Register to Attend the 2011 Procurement Connection Seminar and EXPO Events

We've extended the registration deadline for another week to give you time to register for the Comptroller's annual HUBEXPO June 27 in Austin. The EXPO takes place at the Crowne Plaza Austin Hotel, 6121 N. IH 35, from 7:45 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The day-long event gives Historically Underutilized Businesses (HUBs) opportunities to network with state agency purchasers and state contractors seeking business partnerships with HUBs. Workshops will give businesses valuable tips on submitting bids that win state contracts; explore methods to obtain working capital; and preview future contracting opportunities in construction, information technology, professional services and procurement of goods and supplies.

We look forward to seeing you!
