Most of these are bogus: how many "suppliers" actually get money as a result of attending? They never tell you because the number is zero or close to it....but, FYI...
Supplier Diversity Vendor Fair.
Thursday, September 6, 2012
1:00 p.m. - 5:30 p.m.
The Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond
701 E. Byrd Street
Richmond,Virginia
Event highlights include:
Educational sessions, including capacity building and how to do business with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (like you need to be told how to do business....)
Networking opportunities with Bank procurement and end user staff, selected prime suppliers and resource organizations (meaning you get to talk to these guys. They count this toward their goals, but you never see any money...)
We should start to boycott events like these until they actually produce results, meaning money...
