Description
The Flint & Genesee Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with Region 6 PTAC, will host buyers from around the county and state who are looking to make connections with Genesee County businesses.
This event provides a fast-paced, innovative way to connect buyers with vendors from across the region. In past years, more than 30 buyers were able to meet with 125 vendors in a format similar to speed dating. Each buyer has five minutes to share information about their organization and what they buy, followed by 15 minutes for attendees to briefly present their company and ask questions.
Keynote speaker: Steven Koprince, Managing Partner of Koprince Law LLC- Legal Solutions for Government Contractors.
Confirmed buyers attending include:
- Bay Metro Transit
- City of Flint
- Commercial Contracting Corporation
- Heller Machine Co.
