Meet Companies You Can Do Business With At The 2012 Minority and Women-Owned Business Expo and Symposium
Sponsors, Exhibitors, Event Attendees and Everyone:
MWMCA has rescheduled the 2012 Minority and Women-Owned Business Expo and Symposium to Friday, November 9, 2012 due to Hurricane Sandy. We are notifying everyone now of the rescheduling date because we do not want anyone to attempt to travel in any types of catastrophic weather conditions, everyone’s safety is our number one priority. All event details and pricing will stay the same; basically we’re only changing the date due to the hurricane.
Thank you and be safe, we’ll see you on Friday, November 9, 2012.
We are very appreciative of everyone’s understanding. MWMCA Team
