Each attendee will get ten minutes to present their business and products to regional staff whose work relates to each category.
“The Business Showcase Event supports Durham’s Regional and Municipal commitment to innovation and continuous improvement,” the Region.
“This showcase bridges the municipal, public and private sectors and provides an opportunity for businesses to demonstrate products that would improve municipal operations and service delivery,” they continued.
