Government Contracts and Investor Relations

Josh 00:00:00 So, Nick, in all of your experience working with government contracts, how does government contracts fit into the world of investor relations and how do they kind of play together?

Nick 00:00:11 Yeah, well, most public companies are always looking for traction that they can show investors. And one of the easiest ways to show traction to investors is revenue. And government contracts are a way for public companies, whether they're micro-cap, mid-cap, even large cap companies, to show investors that they have traction or that they're about to get traction by bidding on government contracts and potentially winning government contracts. So it can be used as a marketing play for a lot of public companies that are looking for a way to say, look, we have ten x growth potential or a hundred x growth potential, and one of our biggest buyers or customers might be a government contract.
