In partnership with the Buffalo Bills Foundation and Developments by JEM, we cordially invite you to attend an informational session on Minority and/or Women Owned Business Enterprise (MWBE) certification, geared towards growers, producers, and other food system businesses.

MWBE certified businesses have exclusive opportunities to do business with government-funded projects and programs. As the Buffalo Bills build and open their new stadium, many new business prospects are coming to Erie County. The new stadium project has a Community Benefits Agreement, requiring that its contracts support local MWBE certified businesses.

Beyond the stadium, there are opportunities for your business to respond to requests for proposals (RFPs) at local municipalities and institutions such as hospitals, schools, and more. The FPC, Buffalo Bills Foundation, and Developments by JEM are holding this event to help you get your business get certified and get you ready to respond to RFPs, scale up operations to meet contract demands, and grow your business to your full potential.

This session is a great opportunity to learn about the process for both Erie County and New York State MWBE certification. Developments by JEM will present on basic certification requirements and the certification process timeline, as well as share information on how to scale up your business to meet the needs of modern contract opportunities with corporations, institutions, and municipalities. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and request further support you may need to be ready.

Note: to be eligible for certification, you must have been in business for at least one year.

REGISTER ASAP — this session is limited to 50 attendees! Registration is required. You can use this link to save your spot:
