Why is this event so important to your business?
DO NOT EXPECT TO WIN A CONTRACT ON-SITE. Ask pertinent questions and find out what that agency or contractor is looking for and what you need to do to qualify.
A primary challenge for business is to be aware of current regulations and guidelines. This conference provides opportunities to meet buyers and contracting officers from major military bases, the surrounding states and large companies to discuss business opportunities. Educational sessions will provide current information on emerging new standards and provide you with the tools to bid and contract successfully, gain valuable information and share success stories. 

Does this type of event really work? Actually, that is up to you! Did you use the time efficiently? Did you do your research before you arrived at the event? Do YOU follow up? This is your opportunity as a supplier to identify potential new contracting sources and network with buyers and other attendees.

• Make hundreds of face-to-face contacts in one day
• Receive contact information for buyers and contracting officers
• Meet companies that could potentially become "partners" in preparing proposals and contracts

• MATCHMAKING MEETINGS: Pre-Registered Attendees and Small Business exhibitors will be able to schedule their own meetings with prime contractors and government agencies beginning in March.
