NYS Projects Pop-Up Series: Long Island 2026

The New York State Division of Minority and Women’s Business Development has launched the NYS Projects Pop-Up Series. This event series is designed to connect local Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprises (MWBEs) and other small businesses with the companies leading state-affiliated projects that are shaping local communities. MWBEs and small businesses looking to grow will have the opportunity to find supportive resources and meet face-to-face with project decision-makers. Attendees will learn about upcoming procurement opportunities in New York State, network with project-leading companies looking for local partners, and receive one-on-one technical assistance to help position their business for success. The series also features project presentations detailing procurement timelines, scope packages, and MWBE subcontracting opportunities, as well as 'speed discussions' with general contractors and resource tables staffed by various business support organizations.
