The public sector in theory is a large and attractive market place to do business but it is not a straightforward or homogenous market place despite extensive regulation.  This event will focus on how to identify (find), compete for (win) and manage (keep) public sector clients and contracts to maximise opportunities and provide a solid base to win more business.
