USAID Funding Seminar - How to enter and grow in the USAID market
By Montgomery Group
USAID distributed more than $20 billion last fiscal year. Attend this seminar to learn best practices for starting and growing your work with USAID. We will share USAID partnering best practices AidKonekt’s team has learned through nearly a decade of supporting USAID partnering growth strategies. Come learn how to start building your organization’s USAID market strategy, and ways to get started as a subcontractor by connecting with established USAID primes. The seminar will cover AidKonekt’s “3-P” process to growing in the USAID market, and will give you tools you can take back to your organization to build and grow your USAID work. This will be targeted to global development and aid organizations that are interested in USAID funding. We will discuss changes under the Biden Administration, the New Partnerships Initiative, and USAID’s direction under Administrator Samantha Power.
