About this listen
In this powerful episode, we sit down with Wallace Sermons, the first Black Chief Procurement Officer for the State of Maryland, to explore his incredible journey from an Army brat to a trailblazer in the world of procurement and government contracting.
Wallace shares:
- His path from the Air Force to entrepreneurship and ultimately procurement leadership
- The challenges minority-owned businesses face, with less than 1.3% of federal spending going to Black businesses
- Practical strategies for engaging with Procurement Center Representatives, Apex Accelerators, and Small Business Development Centers
- Tips for leveraging state-level liaisons to break into government contracts
This inspiring conversation is part of our Invest Fest 2024 Special Series, where we highlight trailblazers across industries.
