You might not know that LSWI has an ARC WA program to prepare companies for working with government contracts, learn about SBIRs, etc. Ask Kate Hoy And Richard Giersch for other services that the Washington APEX Accelerator and ARC WA offer. They hold regular open office hours for any Life Science questions. While not specific to Life Sciences you can join July 11 Thurston County Government’s lead APEX Accelerator advisor Grady Smith to explore the fundamentals of market research for government contractors. Learn the different platforms and tools available to successfully answer the question, “Who in the government buys what I sell?”. Participants will walk away with a completed Market Research Worksheet for your current (or future) business and gain knowledge in procurement data research and APEX Accelerators. https://lnkd.in/gJaHuESY

We were excited to have Margie Bensching of Golden SHERPA, Inc. join us at East West Summit 2024. Margie brings great resources to families and individuals when extra support is required. Sometimes a "Caregiver" needs to have an additional set of helpers so that they can step back into their role as "Loving Family Member". Check out what Golden Sherpa offers in broader geographies, including this post about Alaska. Thanks Jacqueline Summers for informing others. https://lnkd.in/g5HvDgy7
