The Department of the Navy’ (DON) Office of Small Business Programs has continually supported the DON’s Navy Week program since 2016, by conducting small business workshops as apart of the bigger Navy Week schedule. The workshops, are designed to educate small businesses on how to do business with the Navy and Marine Corps. The workshop will cover how to find out about upcoming contracting opportunities and how small businesses can contribute to the war-fighter mission.
Every year, America’s Navy comes home to approximately 15 cities across the country to show Americans why having a strong Navy is critical to the American way of life.
Since 2005, the Navy Week program has served as the Navy’s principal outreach effort into areas of the country without a significant Navy presence, with 210 Navy Weeks held in 74 different U.S. cities. The program is designed to help Americans understand that their Navy is deployed around the world, around the clock, ready to defend America at all times.
Navy Weeks focus a variety of outreach assets, equipment and personnel on a single city for a week-long series of engagements with key influencers and organizations representing all sectors of the market. During a Navy Week, 75-100 outreach events are coordinated with corporate, civic, government, education, media, veterans, community service and diversity organizations in the city.
