Join VMA directors at noon on Thursday, September 24, for the next Member Advantage Hour: VMA Services Series. Together, we'll share updates on legislative priorities, events and programs, workforce solutions, and the benefits and initiatives the Virginia Manufacturers Association has delivered for more than 100 years.

This month's webinar will feature a special preview of Path to Prime, a new program made possible through a $4.8 million U.S. Small Business Administration Empower to Grow Grant awarded to the Virginia Manufacturers Association and Manufacturing Skills Institute. Path to Prime helps small manufacturers access federal contracting opportunities and enter the defense industrial supply chain.

The program officially launches on Wednesday, September 30. Attend this webinar to learn:

• How Path to Prime works
• Who is eligible to participate
• Steps manufacturers can take now to prepare
• How to access federal supply chains & opportunities

This is your chance to get ahead of the launch and position your company among the first manufacturers to participate when Path to Prime opens.

Registration is required to receive the Microsoft Teams meeting information.

We welcome anyone from your company to participate, and we encourage questions. Each monthly webinar is designed to help you get the most out of your Virginia Manufacturers Association membership while learning about new resources, upcoming events, workforce support, legislative updates, and more.
