Representatives from state agencies, boards, commissions and universities will be on hand to tell you about their upcoming set aside contracts and additional purchasing needs for this fiscal year. There will also be informational and skill-building workshops open to all attendees. We hope that you find this event helpful and use this opportunity to network with agency procurement officers to tell them more about your company's capabilities.
To help your business prepare for the Expo, the Central Ohio Minority Business Association and the Columbus Minority Business Assistance Center, a service of the Ohio Development Services Agency, are hosting two workshops. The workshops will be on Nov. 7 and 14 at 11:30 a.m. Please see the pre-Expo workshop flier HERE

Ohio Affirmative Action in Employment
There is an "important distinction between affirmative action and equal opportunity. Equal opportunity assumes that the concept of merit based solely upon a person’s perceived ability to perform job duties will exclusively govern all personnel decisions. Committment to affirmative action requires specific efforts to recruit, employ, and promote members of groups previously excluded by consideration of additional factors deemed to be relevant and important.*"
