Urbano Network Tenders Opportunities & Upcoming Events

Urbano has been helping SMEs across all sectors to connect, share, learn, and develop new business opportunities since we created our first business community in Shoreditch in the early 2000's.

To help companies monitor opportunities in the public sector, we produce a weekly list of tenders using a list of 100 keywords relevant to our members' diverse services. 

View this week's list below and search other recent tenders (using CTRL F + keyword) here: Tenders @ Urbano

In February, our speaker networking breakfast event will convene a panel of experts to examine the new Procurement Act as it goes live. By then, the new government will have published details on how it will encourage more SMEs to tender and win an increased share of work from across the public sector.

Details on all our upcoming events and those of our members below.

Want to be part of a pro-active business community? To find out how Urbano can help connect your company to future opportunities, please click here or send an email to me: Urbano Membership
