Since 1991, the Mentor-Protégé Program has provided significant support to disadvantaged small and medium-sized enterprises, helping them expand their overall market participation base, create more jobs, and increase national income. I did. The program helps small and medium-sized businesses (protégés) to successfully compete for prime contracts and subcontracts by partnering with typically larger companies (mentors) on individual project-based contracts.
