The 1st Annual Women in Construction Expo “Expo" is the first of its kind in Northern California and will empower women in the trade by providing tips on how to work a room, navigate the City’s bidding process, network, and establish partnerships to develop contracting opportunities. The SFPUC’s Small Firm Advisory Committee and the Contracting Monitoring Division (CMD) hosts of the Expo are working in collaboration with the National Association of Women in Construction and Women’s Business Enterprise National Council.
