Are you a diverse owned company looking to grow your business?
Supplier Diversity provides diverse owned businesses with greater access to corporate and public procurement opportunities. By connecting diverse suppliers with organizations that are actively looking to diversify their supply chain, supplier diversity is supporting the growth of those businesses that are owned by Indigenous, Black, racialized, LGBTQ, disabled, women, Veteran, and refugee people.
This event will provide you with the opportunity to learn how certification as a diverse owned business can benefit you, hear from corporate and government leaders on what they are doing to engage diverse suppliers, and network with other entrepreneurs. As part of the event, diverse owned businesses will also have the opportunity to pitch their company to corporate buyers through our roundtable connections.
