On July 25, LeChase Business Development Manager Travis L. Miller represented LeChase at the Upstate NY Supplier Diversity Training and Expo. This event – hosted by Monroe County’s Department of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion – was held at the Frederick Douglass Greater Rochester International Airport, where LeChase is currently the Agency CM on a renovation and improvement project.
The expo provided an opportunity for MWBEs and other emerging companies to learn about supplier diversity and connect with representatives from many different firms in the region. The day was filled with both informative sessions and networking opportunities. Event speakers covered topics such as supplier diversity best practices, certification processes and supplier development programs at panel sessions throughout the day.
This event was a great opportunity for LeChase to connect with local MWBEs about LeChase’s supplier diversity program and other potential opportunities.
