​What is The Business Experience?

It’s more than an expo.  It’s bigger than a seminar.  It’s a comprehensive event providing game-winning strategies for business owners.

Under one roof and facilitated by our own experts, the city of Phoenix proudly presents: The 2015 Business Experience. This free, daylong event — which corresponds with National Procurement Month — features various educational sessions about all city services, programs and initiatives that benefit the business community.

City of Phoenix experts will be on hand to: 
- Share information about all business assistance services and programs
- Provide tools to help you properly compose responses to bids and solicitations
- Share a list of upcoming city contracts in each department
- Discuss legal requirements for city contracts
- Educate green vendors and small business owners about city initiatives

As an added bonus, city experts will be available after each session to meet with business owners to discuss their specific needs. The opening session will feature Mayor Greg Stanton, District 8 Councilwoman Kate Gallego and City Manager Ed Zuercher.  The keynote speaker is Jason Rowley, Phoenix Suns and Phoenix Mercury President, who will present, “March Madness: Game Winning Strategies for Business Owners.” 

How The Business Experience benefits you…
- Networking opportunities with other vendors and contractors
- Greater understanding of how to work with city of Phoenix staff
- Insight into the contracting world from the city’s perspective
- Key business strategies that will benefit your business

Due to overwhelming demand, seating capacity for the 2015 Business Experience has been reached. Registration for this event is no longer available. - Thank you
