Welcome!
Thank you for your interest in the B.I.G. event (Booming oilfields, International trade, Government contracting) scheduled to take place at the Solomon P. Ortiz Center on Wednesday, August 14, 2013.
As small businesses continue to pull out of tough economic conditions, this event focusing on new market opportunities is very timely. Businesses can increase their bottom line several ways; cutting costs, diversifying products/services, but also finding new customers. That is what this event is all about!
In an effort to make this a real win-win for both attendees and exhibitors alike, we’re targeting specific high-demand trade, product and service providers. Some of those areas include Welders, Frac Sand Haulers, Oil Haulers, Delivery Services, Power washing/pipe cleaning, Environmental Services, Catering, Engineers, Geologists, Accountants, and much more.
The half-day event will include key presentations, a choice of fifteen different seminars, reverse trade show where businesses can visit one-on-one with procurement representatives and an industry-specific networking opportunity.
Over 400 people joined us in 2012 for a groundbreaking success! We look forward to moving the entire Coastal Bend forward with this 2nd annual, taking advantage of tremendous growth opportunities for local small businesses. See you on August 14th!
