We’re procurement leaders, bid writing and sustainability experts, entrepreneurs and, most of all, passionate small business owners who recognise the challenges businesses face when working with the public sector. Our experience means that we’ve been where you are now – we know how daunting breaking into the public sector can seem – trying to find work, win work and keep it can be exhausting and often demoralising if you haven’t got the tools in place to help.

Being a "Responsible Business", and how you demonstrate it, can be the difference between winning and not winning work in the Public Sector. The drive for more socially and environmentally responsible business practises is on the increase and this is being reflected in public sector competitions.
But being "Responsible" is made up of different elements and providers often tell us that the requests and requirements from public sector can be confusing and complex. Help is required to understand what is being asked for and what providers can consider doing, or how to demonstrate actions already being taken .
This session will give a practical over view of what agenda items such as social value, carbon net zero and sustainability are. We know that lots of smaller providers are already doing lots of really impactful things in line with these agenda so we'll also explore how you can reflect the great work you're already doing in competitions and use those activities to help you secure growth for the future.
Hosted by Go4Growth resident experts in these fields, Sheri-Leigh Miles and Jimmy Brannigan, this workshop is designed to be interactive and take any questions you might have on these important topics.
