2010 Ohio Business Matchmaker is a unique event where small businesses, including veteran-, minority- and women-owned businesses, and government buyers of goods and services come together. The cost for small businesses to attend is $50.00 per person which includes a boxed lunch. Click here to learn how to register.
More than 150 buyers will be on hand for one-on-one meetings with small businesses. Buyers are from city, state, county, and federal agencies, as well as prime contractors and other organizations with combined purchasing budgets representing hundreds of millions of dollars worth of opportunities.
Small businesses, or “Sellers,” pre-register for the event as well, using their individual NAICS codes. (Identify your NAICS code(s) by searching keywords at http://www.census.gov/eos/www/naics/. ) Meetings last approximately 10 minutes, are on a first-come first-served basis, and present an opportunity for Buyers and Sellers to discuss each others’ specific projects and capabilities. There is also ample opportunity throughout the day to network with Buyers and Sellers. To learn how to register, click here.
In addition to one on one matchmaking meetings, the event will provide seminars for small businesses including selling to the government, GSA schedules, access to capital, and surety bonding.

Buyer and Seller Matches
Buyers register ahead of time and list the types of products and services (as identified by NAICS codes) that they are interested in acquiring. Both Buyers and Sellers are able to access a list of their matches immediately following input. Matches should be checked often and again just prior to the event.
