On August 21, 2024, Circuit Media (CM) had the privilege to attend and speak at the Empower through Mentoring – Strengthening the Department of Energy’s Small Business Supply Chain forum hosted by Sandia National Laboratories and the DOE Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization held in Albuquerque, NM. This forum was an incredible opportunity for small businesses such as Circuit Media to learn about the DOE’s New Mentor-Protégé Program (MPP) initiatives, connect with other small businesses, Protégés, Mentors, DOE’s National Laboratories, program offices, and prime contractors through networking opportunities.
CM also had the opportunity to engage in one-on-one matchmaking sessions with DOE program offices, attend educational breakout sessions, and learn more from DOE regarding navigating DOE requirements and the landscape.
As a protégé, this opportunity was very inspiring. CM was able to expand opportunities within the DOE and connect with other ambitious small businesses! CEO Rebecca Askew presented CM’s capabilities, commitment to excellence, and the significant benefits of our partnership with DOE laboratories.
