About Mid-Michigan Suppliers & Hire Diversity Summit

Michigan Premier Events first annual Mid-Michigan Suppliers & Hire Diversity Summit presented by PNC Bank scheduled for Tuesday, November 15th from 8 a.m. – 5p.m. has been postponed to Spring of 2023. 

 

Mid-Michigan Suppliers & Hire Diversity Summit event provides suppliers and buyers, job recruiters and seekers the opportunity to meet in one location at the Lansing Center. 

This full day summit is open to everyone and strategically focused to attract women, minority, veteran, LGBTQ and disability- owned businesses and professionals with an opportunity to network with procurement officials and companies looking to hire. Mid-Michigan Suppliers and Hire Summit will also host panel discussions with dynamic leaders discussing the economic impact of a diverse workforce and supply chain.

 

The goal of this event is to create economic opportunity in Mid-Michigan and make the job markets and workplaces more representative of the communities they serve. Statistics show that companies who embrace diversity in their workplace and supply chain are more profitable than companies who don't. When businesses build capacity being diverse, they are able to grow revenue, jobs and, as a result communities thrive.

We look forward to seeing you at the Mid-Michigan Suppliers and Hire Diversity Summit Spring of 2023!
