The Northern Kentucky Office of the Kentucky Innovation Network is launching a partnership with the Kentucky Procurement Technical Assistance Center by hosting a free seminar: Doing Business with the Government.
KyPTAC offers expertise to businesses interested in exploring selling its products and services to federal, state and local governments.
“The KyPTAC program is excited to be working with Northern Kentucky companies to explore new streams of revenue from sales to the government. The KyPTAC program guides companies through the maze of government regulations that often keep them from trying to market and sell to the government,” stated Darrall Henderson, State Director of the Kentucky Procurement Technical Assistance Center.
“We see the Innovation Network – KyPTAC partnership as adding another arrow in our quiver of services that we can provide to both start-up and existing companies. Every year governments purchase billions in products and services but entering this market is daunting but, with KyPTAC, Northern Kentucky companies have a roadmap through the maze,” explained Casey Barach, Director of the Northern Kentucky Office of the Kentucky Innovation Network.
