Post-Event Website

Opportunities2008, a regional biennial “reverse” trade show that provides small businesses with the opportunity to attend seminars and meet contracting officers from over 50 federal, state and local government agencies and prime contractors, was held in Asheville, NC on March 10, 2008.

The over 450 attendees (primarily small business owners) were able to:

images Market their products and services directly to over 50 federal, state, and local government agencies and large prime contractors in ONE day with ONE sales call.

images Attend series of seminars designed to provide the latest information on doing business with the government.

images Place bids on goods and services and win a contract on the spot. Representatives from several agencies and prime contractors brought simplified acquisition requirements and asked small businesses to submit quotes. Contracts were awarded during the On-the-Spot Awards reception.
