To our colleagues who are Sponsored Programs professionals at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), we're looking forward to seeing you June 1-5 in New Orleans at the National Sponsored Programs Administrators Alliance (NSPAA) of HBCUs Technical Assistance Workshop.

If members on your team are new to government contracting, I invite you to attend PMP's session, "The Compliance Matrix: A workshop for creating this strategic tool to prepare compliant federal contract proposals."

PMP's CEO Sharon Brooks Hodge will be joined by co-presenter Latonia Jones, who is well known as an authoritative voice in government contracting. We combined Latonia's subject matter knowledge with Sharon's communications experience to give participants genuine technical assistance.

If you attend our session, you will:
* Understand why a compliance matrix is more than just a checklist and what makes it a strategic tool.
* Be able to use an RFP's Statement of Work to map proposal responses directly to the evaluation factors, showing the reviewer exactly where and how the proposal addresses each requirement.
* Understand when the technical approach mirrors the evaluation framework, the proposer builds trust and demonstrates readiness.

PMP ... Phenomenal Management Partners ... will have a vendor table at NSPAA, so come by and say hello. Let me know how PMP can assist your HBCU with pursuing government contracting opportunities.

If you want to learn more than how to build a compliance matrix, consider our course Effective Proposal Preparation, which is available on PMP's platform, The Knowledge Sharing Center:

Attendance for the 2026 Atlanta Black Expo at the Georgia World Congress Center last weekend was expected to surpass 5,000. Did you go?

Dozens of Black‑owned businesses exhibited products and services across beauty, tech, wellness, fashion, food, and professional services. Startups and established brands used the expo to launch new products, build partnerships, and connect with customers.

So, PMP wanted to take this opportunity to share information about the man behind the event and his company. Corey Moore 'NetworKing' (LION) chatted with the multimedia interns from Phenomenal Media Productions.

Here’s what he had to say.

Typically, when politicians seek office, their messages target business owners, seniors, or moms and dads working hard to put food on the table and raise their families.

But when the interns at Phenomenal Media Productions asked Georgia State Rep. for an interview, they wanted him to talk to them about issues relative to their demographic, college students ... more specifically students attending Georgia's Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). He obliged.

Here's his conversation with them, outlining what he would do for HBCU students, if he were to become the 84th governor of Georgia.

On behalf of our colleagues at the National Institutes of Health, please save June 1-2, 2026. If you are involved in cutting-edge biomedicine research in any capacity ... that could be a large business or small, private or philanthropic organization, Historically Black College or University (HBCU), or another federal agency ... this event is for you.

The NIH Small Business Program Office is planning a two-day event to strengthen partnerships, highlight innovation in research, support HBCUs in expanding biomedical research infrastructure, elevate the role of HBCUs in shaping national health and research strategies, and inspire researchers at all levels to participate in translational science collectively to reshape future innovation holistically.

PMP provides communications support to the NIH and its 8a prime contractor, so we'll share more details about the conference as they become available.

Melvin Coleman, President & CEO of the Atlanta Black Chambers, breaks down the biggest barriers facing Black entrepreneurs today—access to capital, contracts, and networks—and why each one matters for real growth.

He highlights two key opportunities:
✨ Acquiring existing businesses instead of always starting from scratch.
✨ Delivering exceptional customer experiences to drive long‑term success.

Coleman also reminds us that opportunity is global. Building strong connections across the African diaspora is essential for collective economic power.
