POSTPONED (Oct 13, 2020) - Healthcare Summit

In accordance with Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services’ recommendations designed to help prevent the spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), the Michigan Economic Development Corporation will be postponing the Healthcare Summit, originally scheduled for April 22, 2020. The state is taking proactive steps to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 in Michigan, and we are approaching all of our operations with public health and safety as our top priority. We apologize for any inconvenience and will reach out with additional communications as we learn more and evaluate the possibility of rescheduling the Healthcare Summit. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in reducing the coronavirus risk to Michigan residents. For current and up-to-date information regarding the Coronavirus visit http://www.Michigan.gov/Coronavirus or http://www.CDC.gov/Coronavirus. Pure Michigan Business Connect (PMBC) will partner with Blue Cross Blue Shield and Henry Ford System to host a Healthcare summit to increase access to supplier diversity, service providers and commodity-based providers. Minority suppliers often face a challenge in competing with larger companies due to their limited resources. PMBC, Henry Ford System and Blue Cross Blue Shield will align their efforts and will promote supplier diversity in the state of Michigan. Michigan suppliers will take priority when selecting 1:1 meetings with buyers. Also, if you apply for a meeting - you MUST also register for the event. This is a two-step process, and your registration is NOT automatic.
