Public Procurement in the Construction & Infrastructure Sector webinar

The public sector remains a prominent force in business as well as a primary source of orders across various industries. While the stakes in public procured services and products can be high, procurement processes can be overly formal and require a substantial time investment from a bidder. The COVID-19 pandemic does not seem to have affected the infrastructure development pipeline, and the Czech government announced that it remains committed to investing in infrastructure.

We would like to invite you to join us for webinar session where we will turn the spotlight on the particulars of public procurement in the Construction and Infrastructure sector.
