Mangano Joins Nassau Business Owners At Small Business Workshop

Conference Brings Local Opportunities to Long Island Employers

Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano joined the Office of Minority Affairs to host a Small Business Workshop designed to provide valuable resources to entrepreneurs and small business owners in Nassau County. Held on March 23, 2011, the free workshop assisted business owners with registering, obtaining certification and procuring government contracts.

“Our mission is simple: we need to create and keep jobs here in Nassau County, and one of the ways we can do that is by giving businesses the vital information and resources they need in order to succeed,” said County Executive Mangano. “I was pleased to see so many small business owners and representatives from the public and private sectors fostering partnerships and working together.”

Participating panelists in the workshop included representatives from the Community Development Corporation of Long Island, Small Business Administration, Procurement Technical Assistance Center, North East Small Business Transportation Resource Center, La Guardia Community College, Nassau County’s Office of Minority Affairs and Nassau County Purchasing Department.
