The Private Sector Engagement Toolkit helps users think about how they will connect with the demand side of the markets they are in. The Toolkit is designed to help WealthWorks value chain coordinators as well as individual businesses within a value chain. The Toolkit focuses on why and how to engage the private sector, how to prepare, and which corporate "door" is best suited to the user’s situation.
