The Maryland APEX Accelerator hosted a business matchmaking event on October 5, 2023, at the College of Southern Maryland for over 40 small businesses and government contractors. The event was a huge success in which business owners had one on one meetings with primes, and state and local agencies. APEX Accelerator clients also got to learn how federal purchasing power is being directed to help underserved small businesses and remove barriers from Federal, State, and Local government programs.

 

Thanks in particular to our sponsor, Shore United Bank, and to the Maryland Small Business Development Center, Southern Region, and Charles County Economic Development Department for their support.

"Thank you for organizing such a successful event. The effort and attention to detail you put into it were evident, and it provided a valuable platform for networking and collaboration. The individuals I had the opportunity to meet were both insightful and approachable, making for meaningful interactions. I'm optimistic about the potential partnerships and opportunities that emerged from these connections." -  Agnes K. MD APEX Accelerator Client.
