SmallGovCon Week in Review: March 10-14, 2025
· 620 views
Happy Friday. Hope everyone had a great week. We wanted to share an announcement this week that WIFCON.com is back. Posted from the website: “Wifcon.com was created by Robert (Bob) Antonio 26 years ago. Operated and maintained solely by him and at his own expense, the website has provided a free, reliable, and invaluable source of information and means of communication and commentary to the acquisition community, both public and private for 26 years. Sadly, Bob died on November 24, 2024, after a brief illness, leaving no operational successor.” Now, “a small group of volunteers, has purchased the site from his heirs and will continue to provide the same free service under the same name, Wifcon.com.”
We truly appreciated Bob’s commitment to the GovCon community. He created a great resource for us here at SmallGovCon and provided very helpful information that we used weekly in our Week in Review blogs. Thank you, Bob, for your dedicated service, and for the new operators of this very helpful site. Please visit the website at WIFCON.com.
