Public Spend Forum Symposium on Barriers to Entry in Government Markets to Take Place February 25th

The upcoming symposium will analyze the results of a 6-month Barriers to Entry global study and explore case study solutions that are already underway to address the most pressing barriers facing government suppliers within government markets.
 
WASHINGTON - Feb. 17, 2021 - PRLog -- Public Spend Forum (https://www.publicspendforum.net/) is set to release the results of a study on Barriers to Entry in Government Markets at the B2E Symposium. To better understand the barriers to entry faced by companies of all sizes, Public Spend Forum partnered  with Ivalua and faculty from North Carolina State University's Supply Chain Center to launch the Barriers to Entry in Government Markets study, collecting hundreds of responses and conducting several in-depth interviews with government leaders and suppliers across markets.

The Symposium will also include a panel discussion by government leaders from across Federal, state and local governments;  and a case study presentation on solutions and lessons learned that can be applied by all attendees.

General Cameron Holt (Air Force) will be giving opening remarks and providing his insights at this Symposium.

Public Spend Forum has conducted extensive secondary research, interviewed government leaders, and spoken with suppliers to gain a better understanding of  potential solutions for the issues afflicting public sector markets.

Following a report on this analysis will be a toolkit on actions government agencies can undertake to reduce barriers and make it cheaper  and easier for suppliers to work with the government.

This free event will take place on February 25th 2021 from 1:00PM to 3:30PM EDT.
