A guest speaker from the federal General Services Administration’s Northwest/Arctic Region, regional administrator George Northcroft, will share his experiences.

Participants can meet one-on-one with purchasing agents at more than a dozen federal, state and local government agencies, and network with other Pierce County business owners.
