Airport Hilton Hotel in San Antonio,
Texas on October 29th. The second event was held in Sacramento,
California on November 9th, 2007.
Business Matchmaking offered opportunities
for veteran owned businesses to participate
in the procurement opportunities offered
by government agencies. The program united
education, training, key resources and
tools with actual face-to-face matchmaking
meeting opportunities with procurement
representatives from different government
agencies.
