Conference

December 5-6, 2012
Washington, DC

Job Creation in America: Build it Here—Sell it Everywhere
 

We are excited about the great opportunity to once again convene the Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs) and MBDA clients and partners, as well as the general business community,  to celebrate the 30^th anniversary of the National Minority Enterprise Development (MED) Week.  This milestone celebration is being organized and coordinated in a manner befitting its place in history.  However, due to circumstances beyond our control, MBDA is rescheduling the 2012 National MED Week Conference to December 5-6, 2012 in Washington, D.C.

We are working quickly to launch MED Week’s registration and anticipate it will be up and running in early October.  At this time, we are very confident that this MED WEEK event will be an informative, engaging and an excellent vehicle for MBEs, local officials and federal partners to come together and help ensure continued access to finance, contracts and markets.  This year’s MED Week Agenda will offer attendees a host of very valuable opportunities to network, partner and identify contracting opportunities.  MED Week attendees can look forward to a Billion Dollar B2B Expo, a CEO Fireside Chat, embassy networking events, and power learning sessions. 

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause our partners and conference attendees. 

We look forward to seeing the growing number of minority-owned firms, partners and sponsors who will once again convene in Washington, DC in December to celebrate the 30^th anniversary of National MED Week.

MED Week helps minority-owned firms grow both domestically and globally through a series of educational, training and business-to-business networking events. 

The conference will include:

• Global Business-to-Business Expo

• Global Business Networking Opportunities

• Embassy Business-to-Business Events

• State of Commerce Address

• Informative Plenary Sessions

• Educational Workshops 

• MED Week Awards Program

We look forward to seeing you in Washington, DC!  Be sure to check back for the latest schedule and details about conference events.
