AS OF MAY 2012
What Are Matchmaker Meetings?
As part of the 2012 WBENC National Conference & Business Fair, on Thursday, June 21, WBENC will host Matchmaker Meetings. A matchmaker meeting is an opportunity for WBENC-Certified WBEs to meet with buyers from our WBENC corporate member organizations to discuss possible opportunities in various service and product areas.
Who is eligible?
All WBENC-Certified WBE suppliers registered for the full conference are eligible (i.e. WBE sponsors, WBE exhibitors and full conference WBE attendees). Any WBENC Corporate Member buyers interested in participating in the conference should email matchmakers@wbenc.org.
When is the WBE Deadline?
The deadline for eligible WBEs to be registered and included in the MatchMaker Meeting process is May 11.
See note above on eligibility. Register today!
Are WBEs guaranteed a meeting?
Our goal is to arrange quality, relevant meetings for both the WBE and corporate member. Since meetings are based on current or near future sourcing opportunities of our corporate members, unfortunately one-on-one meetings will be limited to the opportunities that exist. Therefore, WBENC is not able to guarantee a meeting for every eligible WBE.
