The NC MWBE Coordinators’ Network (“Network”) would like to take this opportunity to invite you to attend the 32nd Annual Professional Development Conference. The Net-work was founded in 1986 and consists of MWBE program administrators located throughout North Carolina, repre-senting public institutions and private organizations. The conference will be held November 1-2, 2018 in Greens-boro, NC. The theme for the conference this year is “Know Your Why”. The Network is transforming the way we operate
to continuously improve our ability to meet and bring inspired people together. Forums such as the Annual Professional Development Conference will help en-sure our organization stays on the cutting edge for our members and business community. We are proud of where we are today, and excited about where the Network is headed. Your involvement and support will assist the Network in continuing to provide education to its members, MWBE firms, private companies and public institu-tions that are serviced. This brochure outlines some of the benefits of attendance and sponsorship and how your partnership will provide an excellent opportunity to demonstrate your commitment to implementing a top-notch diversity pro-gram. Through the professional training sessions, diversity professionals will continue to gain knowledge and strategies around best industry practices. The opportunity to network and build relationships is keen to our success in our or-ganizations, and among the Minority and Women Business community. Please come join your colleagues for a great conference! You are truly our greatest asset, we could not accomplish what we do without your support. We look forward to your participation this year. Included you will find a description of the sponsorship levels and registration information. Registration is available online at www.mwbenetwork.org. My personal thanks to all of you!
