MBE, WBE, DBE, ACDBE, SBE - which one is the right certification for your business. Are you also interested in business opportunities, such as city-wide projects: Austin FC stadium, airport projects and/or other contracting opportunities with Austin ISD.

Getting your business certified as a Minority-Owned Business and/or a Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) is the first step! If your business is majority minority-owned (51% or greater- includes Asian American) and you want to have more contracting opportunities for your business, you need to take this webinar!

We invite guest speakers from the City of Austin's Small & Minority Business Resources Department (SMBR) and Austin ISD HUB Program Department to come and share the different types of minority and women-owned certifications accepted at the city level and what are the upcoming contracting opportunities for 2021.
