The Pandemic and The Pivot: DHS is Open for Business
Tuesday, September 1, 2020
2 p.m. – 3 p.m.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) recognizes COVID-19’s impact on the business community and the need for some businesses to pivot. As the federal government’s third-largest federal agency, with 230,000 employees, 22 components, and a vast mission to include counterterrorism, cybersecurity, aviation, and border security, DHS is well-positioned to strengthen the economic security of large, small and medium-sized businesses.
Hear from Karinda L. Washington, Acting Executive Director for Faith Initiatives and Chief of Staff at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Partnership and Engagement (OPE) in Washington, DC. During her presentation, you will learn how to:
- Locate DHS business opportunities
- Pitch business capabilities to DHS
- Foster the establishment of long-term business relationships
- Establish subcontracting opportunities
- Participate in non-traditional public-private partnership business opportunities to support mutually beneficial collaboration across the homeland security enterprise
