What is the city proposing?

Through connections made in the initial meeting with El Paso's regional stakeholders and previous cohort participants, they will engage in several roundtables and focus groups to receive feedback on the City's procurement process. From there, El Paso will develop a series of workshops under the Accelerate EP umbrella to include a cohort of minority businesses.
