Join us for Part 1 of this insightful session with Lindsay Lapaquette from Collaborative Solutions on building effective business partnerships that can open doors to larger opportunities.

Partnerships, whether equal, tier-1, or tier-2, can be a powerful way for WBEs to access opportunities with larger organizations that may be difficult to pursue on their own. In this interactive session, you’ll learn how strategic partnerships can expand your business opportunities while also understanding how they can impact your operations and bottom line. Lindsay will share key considerations when entering into partnerships and how these relationships can support long-term growth.
