About Event

How do small businesses and contractors break into Los Angeles’ growing green economy and more importantly, how do they win work?

Join us for a dynamic “reverse pitch” session where public agencies, developers, and prime contractors present upcoming clean energy and infrastructure opportunities directly to you. Instead of businesses pitching for work, buyers will share what they are procuring, the types of contractors they are seeking, and how to successfully navigate their procurement processes.

Hosted by The Center by Lendistry, this session builds on insights from the Main Street Goes Green Accelerator and the Inclusive Contractors Playbook, highlighting practical pathways for small and diverse contractors to participate in climate-related projects across the region.

Following a brief panel discussion, attendees will engage directly with buyers during a structured networking session designed to foster connections, answer questions, and explore potential partnerships.

This event is open to small business owners, contractors, construction service providers, and anyone interested in accessing opportunities within Los Angeles’ green economy. No prior experience with public procurement is required.

The venue is wheelchair accessible.

Photography/videography will be captured during the event. By attending, you consent to your likeness being used for impact reporting, success stories, marketing, and related communications.

Free and open to the public. Space is limited. Registration required.

The Center by Lendistry

The Center by Lendistry is a nonprofit organization that supports diverse small businesses through education, technical assistance, and access to competitive financing. Our mission is to close the wealth gap by anchoring small businesses and the communities where they do business.

Small businesses in underserved communities face barriers to success, from limited access to capital to a lack of tailored support. The Center by Lendistry is a nonprofit organization committed to closing that gap. We equip small business owners with the resources, guidance, and access to responsible lending they need to succeed—and to build resilience in the face of economic shifts and a changing climate. Our team is dedicated to helping communities unlock opportunities for sustainable growth and long-term stability.

The Center is a strategic partner to Lendistry, a minority-led, technology-enabled Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) that provides loans and other financial products to underserved small business owners.
