This meeting is an opportunity for NAWBO Cbus members to engage with the the Minority Business Development Division and to learn information on any changes or updates on the Ohio WBE program and other State resources for women business owners.

ABOUT THE WOMEN BUSINESS ENTERPRISE PROGRAM (WBE):

The state of Ohio’s Women-Owned Business Enterprise (WBE) program is designed to assist women-owned businesses in obtaining contracts for goods and services, construction, architecture, engineering, information technology, and professional services. The WBE program does not apply a procurement goal or set-aside target for state government contracts. The state of Ohio developed the program because it recognized the need to encourage, nurture, and support the growth of women-owned businesses to foster their development and increase the number of qualified competitors in the marketplace.
