The City of Durham's Underutilized Business Compliance Division is hosting an information session for the Small Local Business Enterprise (SLBE) Program. This program supports small businesses in Durham, Person, Orange and Chatham counties (Durham MSA), and is specially designed for businesses specializing in construction, services (excluding architectural, engineering, and surveying) and goods. Join us and learn about contract opportunities with the City of Durham!
The Small Local Business Enterprise Program Information Session is a free workshop designed to help local business owners navigate municipal contract opportunities with the City of Durham. Hosted by the Underutilized Business Compliance Division, this meeting explains how small enterprises in construction, goods, and services can qualify for city partnerships. Parents attending this session should plan for a professional environment. The meeting takes place in Conference Room 3214 at the Durham Main Library, which offers free parking in the attached deck. While the event is free to attend, it is designed for adults, so you will want to arrange childcare or bring quiet activities if your older children must tag along. This session is a smart addition to your weekly schedule if you are balancing parenthood with entrepreneurship. It provides direct access to city representatives who can help you grow your business, ultimately supporting your household economy right here in the Triangle.
No, the information session is completely free to attend, though registration is recommended to secure your spot in the conference room.
Where should I park at the Durham Main Library?
You can park for free in the library's dedicated parking garage, which offers direct elevator access to the main building.
Can I bring my children to this event?
This is a professional informational meeting geared toward adult business owners. There are no childcare services provided, so it is best to attend solo if possible.
