Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce
The Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce is Monroe County's oldest
and largest business advocacy organization. Offering seminars, networking
events, information and advocacy, publicity, and business assistance,
the Chamber is dedicated to promoting the success of Bloomington-area
businesses.
Along with Brian Kleber of the Small Business Development Center
and Mike Gentile of Crane, we're working with Chamber Vice-President
of Programs Mat Martin and intern Sara McGoun on TechExpo 2002.
We're proud to be part of this effort to de-mystify technology decision-making
for small businesses. We designed the TechExpo logo, developed the
marketing positioning for the event, and produced brochures, flyers,
teasers, posters, programs, and the TechExpo Web site. We hope you'll
join us on November 14th to be a part of TechExpo!
