It is with great pleasure that I write to invite you to attend the National MBE Manufacturers Summit 2016 at the Georgia Tech Global Learning Center in Atlanta, GA on March 24, 2016.

Now is a time of amazing innovation and change in the manufacturing industry. What will 2016 and beyond bring? Where is manufacturing headed? You’ll get answers to these questions and more at our premier manufacturing event of 2016 presented by the Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) Business Center Network.

The day will commence with opening remarks by Georgia Tech President G.P. Peterson, MBDA National Director Alejandra Castillo, and Derek Kayonga, co-founder of The Global Soap Project and CEO of the Center for Civil and Human Rights.   We will continue with corporate and MBE manufacturer panels, breakout sessions on key industry topics including manufacturing in healthcare and cybersecurity, Business-to-Business Matchmaking and Fast Pitching one-on-one meetings with corporations. These sessions will allow you to share your capabilities with sourcing professionals and potential customers and to connect with other manufacturers for potential partnering opportunities. In addition, ample time will be given for Networking Breaks, Poster Walk opportunities and more!

The National MBE Manufacturers Summit 2016 is the first of its kind targeting minority business enterprise (MBE) manufacturers, supply chain decision makers, and stakeholders.  It will be an impactful event to help you grow your business – one  you will not want to miss. Register TODAY and take advantage of our early bird special.
