The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will host a business to business Vendor Outreach Matchmaking Event (VOME) in support of the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) National Small Business Week (NSBW). Our goal is to support small businesses by assisting with connections with large businesses and/or other small businesses to increase capabilities, encourage participation in federal contracting, and strengthen the vendor base and ultimately the security of the United States.

Large and small businesses will be able to forge relationships, discuss potential subcontracting opportunities, teaming and joint ventures, and possible Mentor-Protégé Program (MPP) partnerships.
