 White Plains, NY - If you own a business, are looking to start a business or conduct business in Westchester, the only place to be on Monday, March 24 is The Business Council of Westchester’s Mega Mixer Business Expo at the Westchester Marriott Hotel from 2:00 pm until 6:30 pm.
The business trade show will feature the largest number of exhibitors (212) in the event’s six year history as well as local examples of the hottest Westchester business trends as reflected by the numbers of attending businesses in the following categories: communications, outsourcing (especially technology- and employment-related), food and entertainment and, of course, “green.”
“Our savvy Westchester membership has figured out that running businesses with an eye toward the environment makes sense,” says President/CEO Marsha Gordon, “So for the first time, the Mega Mixer will feature a “Green Aisle” consisting totally of earth-friendly companies who will educate members and attendees about valuable, cost-effective “green” options for businesses and homes.” The company behind the concept is Mercury Solar Systems, one of the exhibitors.
Throughout the Mega-Mixer, you will find businesses such as:
· A line of fine jewelry that is 100% environmentally friendly, reusable cloth bags, and green trade show displays
· One of the largest samplings of food, beverage and catering options
· The County’s largest gathering of communications- and media-related companies – from media to presentation trainers to new media resources
“There is dynamism in the Westchester business economy,” says The Business Council of Westchester President/CEO Dr. Marsha Gordon, “And it is represented by the exhibitors and attendees at the Mega Mixer who demonstrate Westchester’s thriving business climate despite national fears of recession. Plus, we know from our members that the contacts they make at these events result in profitable business deals – and growth is what we’re all about.”
For the first time, the Mega Mixer will include a press area, so interviews/tours can be easily arranged for the media. For more information visit www.westchesterny.org.
