Join us for our Mentor-Protégé Programs Webinar on August 5, 2026!

In this power-packed, one-hour virtual session, we'll break down two of the most valuable, and often misunderstood, programs available to small businesses pursuing government contracts: the SBA Mentor-Protégé Program and the DOD Mentor-Protégé Program.

Whether you're new to government contracting or looking to scale through strategic partnerships, this session will give you clear, actionable answers to the questions small businesses ask most:

- What exactly are the SBA and DOD Mentor-Protégé Programs (MPP), and how do they work?
- What tangible benefits can small businesses gain from participating?
- Does my business qualify — and how do I find out?
- If I form a joint venture under the MPP, will my business retain its small business size status?

These programs can open doors, expand your capabilities, and position your business for larger contract opportunities, but only if you know how to navigate them. This session is designed to give you that foundation.

Register today and come ready with your questions!

Join us for our training event "Defense Production Act Title III" on July 15, 2026 at 1:00 PM

Tracing its origins to the Korean War, the Defense Production Act (“DPA”) is a collection of economic controls that may be used by the President to marshal America’s private sector resources for national defense. Under Title I, the President may compel federal contracting participation and prioritization, as well as allocate resources to rapidly mobilize America’s industrial might for national emergencies. Title III provisions provide tools and resources to strengthen the industrial base to ensure it is robust enough to support national defense activities at moment’s notice. In this webinar Ian Patterson will discuss the unique contacting powers of the DPA, as well as the opportunities that exist for businesses under Title III.
