Featured Presentations

The HCA de SA’s mission is to promote and support the Small, Minority, Woman, and Veteran-owned contracting community in and around San Antonio. We do this by facilitating education, training, and networking events for all our members and guests. General Contractors and Project Owners win by meeting subcontractors and suppliers to help with their diversity goals. Our SMWBE members win by developing relationships, learning about bid opportunities, and hopefully gain new work. Win-Win.

These are the presentation opportunities for 2020-2021.  If you would like to sign up to give a presentation, please call our office at (210) 444-1100 or send us an email at admin@hcadesa.org. We will provide advertising and registration for all events/meetings/training. We also ask that the speaker promote the event to their vendors/network as well.
