Broward County Office of Economic & Small Business Development Triennial ACDBE Stakeholder Meeting #1

All stakeholders of Broward County’s Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (ACDBE) program – including certified and non-certified business owners, minority, women’s and general contractor groups, community organizations, and other officials or organizations – are invited to join us for this virtual meeting concerning:

  • The availability of disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged businesses,
  • The effects of discrimination on opportunities for ACDBEs, and
  • Broward County’s efforts to establish a level playing field for ACDBE participation in Broward County Aviation and Transportation projects.

The Broward County Office of Economic and Small Business Development, in partnership with the Broward County Aviation Department (BCAD) hosts this event as part of the triennial goal-setting process to obtain relevant input and share useful information. This is the first of two scheduled meetings. Participation in both meetings is not required.
