The NH Small Business Matchmaker brings small businesses together with prime contractors and federal and state agencies. Its design allows small businesses to meet with exhibitors who are looking for small businesses with appropriate services or products to fulfill their government contracts. Attendees can also connect with Small Business Resources at the event.
The NH Matchmaker allows small businesses ample opportunity to meet with exhibitors. We strive for a relaxed atmosphere, so meetings occur on a first-come basis. It is not structured with scheduled appointments. Keeping meetings meaningful but brief (up to 10 minutes) allows everyone to get their turn.
The event provides great networking opportunities, so come prepared with plenty of business cards and get ready to make connections and build relationships with exhibitors and other small businesses.
A new addition to the Matchmaker event!
Presentation on CMMC Certification
We know that becoming CMMC-certified is critical to many government contractors. Paige Yeater, Mainstay Technologies, will share the FREE resources NH SBDC offers NH businesses to help you work towards certification. SBDC and Mainstay can help you get on a trajectory to help you reach your goals (with no expectations for further services from Mainstay).
Come to the CMMC session during the lunch break, so your meetings with exhibitors are not interrupted! - to find out more about the free eCourses and 90-minute consultations with Mainstay Technologies that SBDC offers.
