Arkansas Department of Commerce - Conway Local Office issued the following announcement on Oct. 14.
Business Expo Conway is tomorrow! Who's ready?!
Business Expo is our largest business-to-business networking event with more than 100 booths. Product demonstrations, business-to-business networking, and selling of products and services – all done on the expo floor – can ultimately increase sales and sales leads for attendees.
In addition, there are several special events that will take place throughout the day for Chamber members to attend. Check out what we've got in store below!
Business Expo Breakfast | Sponsored by Conway Corporation

Big things are happening at the University of Central Arkansas. Join Houston Davis as he updates attendees on all the changes on campus. Tickets to the breakfast are $10 and can be purchased in advance at conwaychamber.org or at the door.
Business Expo Lunch | Sponsored by Garver, Moix Equipment and Toy Company, and Rogers Group | 11:30 a.m.
Lorie Tudor, director of the Arkansas Department of Transportation, will inform attendees on the progress of local projects and future plans in the Conway and central Arkansas area. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased in advance at conwaychamber.org or at the door.
This year, we'll hold three informative sessions throughout the day that are free to attend, but space is limited. To ensure you have a spot, register in advance at conwaychamber.org. Business Expo Sessions are sponsored by Arvest Bank and Kanga Studio.
Intro to Government Contracting | In partnership with Conductor | 10 a.m.
Selling to the government is different than selling in the private sector. Learn about different government contract types, state and federal procurement processes, and how you can register your business to sell products or services to the government. This course is of special benefit to those companies that have no experience in government contracting or are relatively new to the process.
Growth Strategies | In partnership with Conductor | 2 p.m.
Join Conductor as it discusses how to position your organization, business, or team for growth by creating a dynamic strategic growth plan that grows with you. This session is beneficial for organizations, businesses, and teams of any size, including for-profits and not-for-profits.
Shop Conway Introduction | 3:30 p.m.
Shop Conway is a new educational and promotional initiative designed to encourage shopping local. This session will introduce this free program to local businesses and show how your business can participate.
