About the event

In today's competitive engineering landscape, small engineering companies often find themselves facing significant challenges in accessing new markets, resources, and opportunities. However, partnering with a larger company can be a game-changer for your business. It takes a whole village to design and build a public works project. Public sector projects require multiple companies coming together to pursue work as a team.

Are you prepared?
