About this Event

We invite you to join us on Wednesday, April 30th, 2024 for our Supplier Diversity Training for Office Managers & Administrative Professionals from 11:00am - 12:00pm. This training is hosted by Portland Means Progress and will be held at ECOTrust Events at 721 NW 9th Ave in the Billy Frank Junior Room. In this training, we will focus on educating, supporting, and empowering administrative professionals to have a direct impact on intentional purchasing within their organization. Anyone who is in charge of making everyday purchases within their organization is encouraged and invited to attend!

Following the Supplier Diversity Training for Administrative Professionals training, join us downstairs in the Irving Street Studio for the Mercatus Catering Fair & Vendor Networking Event from 12:00pm- 2:00pm where we will have BIPOC catering businesses in the space providing sample size items off of their menu. This is a great opportunity to find out more about local businesses that can provide catering for your company’s upcoming meetings and/or events. You will also have the opportunity to connect with local professional services vendors. The Catering Fair & Vendor Networking Event is open to all training attendees and Portland Means Progress businesses, so please spread the word within your company.

This event is exclusive for employees of businesses committed to actions through Portland Means Progress.
