Business owners interested in contracting with government agencies will get a chance to learn about the process and to network during an event Tuesday at Port Canaveral.
Business Expo 2007 will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the port’s Cruise Terminal 4. The annual trade show is open to the public at no charge.
Sponsored by the NASA Kennedy Space Center Small Business Council, the 45th Space Wing and Canaveral Port Authority, the show is expected to feature more than 175 business and government exhibitors from Brevard County and elsewhere.
In addition to business owners and managers, government purchasing agents can attend to learn what local and national vendors have to offer, organizers said.
Exhibitors will include vendors from a variety of fields, including computer technology, communications equipment and services, and construction and safety products. ¶
Representatives from NASA, the 45th Space Wing, Kennedy Space Center prime contractors, local chambers of commerce and others will be available to give out information and answer questions about doing business with their organizations.
"We’re encouraging everyone involved with government contracting to be part of this extraordinary networking and information-gathering opportunity," said Connie Wilcox, Kennedy Space Center’s small-business specialist.
"This event has an incredible reputation for providing excellent opportunities for all who attend," she said.
