Over 100 people attended the event held at the Bitwise South Stadium business center in Fresno on Wednesday, October 23, 2019.<\/p>\n<p>The Authority\u2019s Small Business Advocate Catrina Blair organized the event in response to small businesses who indicated they needed assistance with how they can be successful whether they\u2019re working on or interested in joining the high-speed rail project and other government projects. Blair said, \u201cWe tried to leave no stone unturned. Small businesses heard from the Authority, high-speed rail design-builders, other state agencies and resource partners on how to navigate the government contracting arena, which can be confusing and overwhelming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Click image below to view video from the Small Business Supportive Services Symposium.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/QBOyLyzP970\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-15406 alignnone size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/hsr.ca.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/11_01_2019-Sm_Biz_Services_Symposium-player-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hsr.ca.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/11_01_2019-Sm_Biz_Services_Symposium-player-980x551.jpg 980w, https:\/\/hsr.ca.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/11_01_2019-Sm_Biz_Services_Symposium-player-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/QBOyLyzP970\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-14959 alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hsr.ca.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/buttom_img.jpg\" alt=\"button image for video link\" width=\"180\" height=\"58\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hsr.ca.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/buttom_img.jpg 180w, https:\/\/hsr.ca.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/buttom_img-16x5.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/hsr.ca.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/508_final_small_biz_symposium_release_110419.pdf&#8221;
