Web Watch

A new federal government website, www.women-21.gov, bills itself as a “one-stop shop for resources” for women entrepreneurs.

Of particular interest to companies in government procurement, the site provides links to many agency websites related to their contracting activities, including sites that list active solicitations. Another useful feature provides links to local offices of several federal agencies.

There are links to more than 20 small-business advocacy groups are listed as partners in the project.

The site, launched by the Labor Department and the Small Business Administration, provides information on access to capital; health care for small businesses; retirement security; and technology. Many of those topics link to videos featuring presentations from Labor Department conferences.
