Some people say if we are not going to have a GSA EXPO we need something to replace it! Did it matter to small businesses? Respond to this poll so we can hear from you!
We need an Expo! or something equivalent! Not the small business' fault that it was cancelled, however, we are the ones that suffer the loss. I would venture to say it has impacted large business too.
The Expo was the once a year, face to face with governmet purcasers that we would no otherwise have. Electronics are great but do not replace the warm handshake, the 'putting a face to a name' experience that we were able to get with the people at GSA Expo.
