Creating a venue for low-pressure manufacturing connections

More than 70 manufacturers and partners attended the February 24th Manufacturing Matchmaking event in Sugar Grove. Hosted by IMEC, Chicago Metro Metals Consortium, Valley Industrial Association, and Kane and Kendall Counties, the buyer-supplier forum provides a low-pressure opportunity for manufacturers to connect with a variety of potential business partners in one location. From the very small to medium and large Illinois-based manufacturers, all of the participants are able to identify an opportunity for growth and/or new sales.

"We really enjoyed meeting other manufacturers and building a new network."

IMEC and the Chicago Metro Metals Consortium have hosted four matchmaking events for the greater Chicagoland area, touching more than 120 manufacturing participants and 80 partners. For future matchmaking event information please visit www.imec.org/events.cfm or contact info@imec.org.
