18th Annual Alliance Mid-Atlantic Procurement Fair



In times of change, it's more important than ever to keep your brand top of mind and stay connected to your business prospects. Small businesses wanting to stay relevant and up-to-date with government contracting and corporate buying opportunities will be "Making Meaningful Connections" at the 18th Annual Alliance Mid-Atlantic Procurement Fair. The event will be held at Bally's Resort in Atlantic City on March 28th. 

 

There are many opportunities for small businesses in government contracting and this is your chance to present your company to agencies and large businesses that are purchasing. The event format includes workshops, a trade show, one on one MatchMaking Meetings and structured networking opportunities with hundreds of participants.    

 

Small businesses in attendance will learn what it takes to be successful in the government procurement arena. Workshops will teach you how to drill down to the exact agency and departments that purchase your commodity or service and find out what criteria the primes and agencies use when deciding which business to use. You'll also have a chance to hear about tools to help you increase your success like the mentor-protégé relationship, growing G.R.I.T. for government contracting and how to find funding sources to grow your business.

 

What are the top two features that make the Alliance Procurement Fairs unique? First, small businesses pre-schedule their own one-on-one MatchMaking meetings with 40+ buying agencies. Second, our eGuide is the online directory of all participants and is available to all attendees before the event and for six months post event. 

 

 A complete list of participants and registration details are available on the website at www.allianceforbiz.com.
