Instructor: Alex McCracken, California Capital APEX Accelerator Procurement Counselor, in collaboration with Megan Wisniewski, California Department of General Services Business Outreach Liaison.

California Capital APEX Accelerator offers a 90-minute hands-on 3-part series workshop focusing on how the state buys products and services and provides insight as to how to conduct market research on state spending data that is specific to your business.
