Testimonials:
- "I thought it was ABSOLUTELY worth my time and money to get a booth. As a small business,
it gave me so much visibility and drew in those with whom I wanted to speak. I just
wish I had an employee to man the booth so I could network more! But I think the connections
I made will help me achieve that goal."
- "It was nice to have the fair back in action this year. We always seem to get some
potential opportunities or learn something we didn't know about - like procurement
sites we were not aware of! Lunch was really good! Thank you!! We are looking forward
to seeing you again next year!"
