NORFOLK, VA - More than $5 Billion of construction projects are gearing up and city economic departments are looking for local contractors and entrepreneurs to attend a virtual event on March 16th and 17th from 9AM – 12PM on both days. This two-day, virtual event is a one-stop opportunity to learn from the experts and to create a win-win-win for everyone.
The “Bridging The Connection” virtual event will begin on day one with a welcome from Mayor Kenneth C. Alexander of Norfolk and Mayor Donnie R. Tuck of Hampton. The interactive sessions that follow will include Virginia partners from The Virginia Department of Small Business and Supplier Diversity and will provide participants information about certifications and award requirements.

City project representatives will review upcoming opportunities for Norfolk’s St. Paul’s Transformation of Tidewater Gardens, and Hampton’s Mary Jackson Neighborhood Center and Aquatic Center.
