3RD ANNUAL BUSINESS ENTERPRISE EXPO
The City of Cincinnati's Department of Economic Inclusion (DEI) is thrilled to invite you to our 3rd annual Business Enterprise Expo! This year, in addition to highlighting the City's MBE/WBE/SBE certified firms in our reverse tradeshow, we are expanding opportunities to all local firms by including a one-stop-shop for all things small and diverse business.
This event features a wide range of opportunities, including access to capital, connections with community resource partners, local business opportunities, insights from industry experts, and success stories from small and diverse businesses who have successfully navigated our local business environment.
In addition, DEI is proud to be partnering with Huntington Bank as our exclusive financial partner to bring their groundbreaking Seeds for Growth initiative to our community. Seeds for Growth aims to connect under-resourced small businesses to capital and other resources, reducing barriers for firms looking to take their business to the next level.
Sign up today and take advantage of all we have to offer!
Registration for general attendees is free, and thanks to the support from our local partners, DEI will be providing swag bags for attendees while supplies last. If you are a City-certified MBE/WBE/SBE and would like to have a table at the event, please contact Sylvia Jones-Hamm at sylvia.jones-hamm@cincinnati-oh.gov.
