Connecticut Supplier Connection – Supplier Growth Summit November 19 – 20 Matchmaker

The 9th Annual CT Supplier Connection Growth Summit is designed to help the region’s small suppliers meet with large buyers and prime contractors in Connecticut, strengthen the local supply chain community, and foster its growth and ability to grow in an ever-changing and challenging market.

The centerpiece of the Supplier Connection Growth Summit is the Business MatchMaker. Suppliers will have an opportunity to meet one-on-one (virtually) with buyers from some of the largest buying organizations in our area. MatchMaker Meetings will take place over one and half days, with each lasting approx. 15 minutes.

Last year, we hosted over 225 one-on-one supplier meetings with 20 buyers from the region’s largest corporations and buying groups at the Supplier Growth Summit and overall, through our twice-a-year Summits & MatchMaker events, we have enabled more than 2,000 such meetings. At the Summit Kickoff Sessions, and other workshops throughout the year, we have brought together members of leading buying organizations, state government officials, and other representatives from support organizations to increase awareness of various programs that are designed to assist small and diverse suppliers.

Join us for our Keynote Session and Kickoff on November 19th from 9am – 11:45am.
