Join together in person to acknowledge the impactful work done through the Diverse Procurement Collaborative (DPC) after its groundbreaking inaugural year. Recognize, alongside this year’s DPC Cohort, its supporters, and regional leaders, the progress and promise that expanding diversity and inclusion in our business community brings to the future of our local communities. Take this opportunity to network and build stronger relationships with suppliers and buyers alike and ultimately be a part of a growing movement to cultivate minority business growth through supplier diversity and inclusive procurement practices.
Hear from DPC leaders as they announce key goals for the years ahead, including a collective regional spend goal with minority suppliers, and gain a deeper appreciation of the DPC’s impact on minority-owned businesses.
As this landmark initiative rounds out its first year, the Diverse Procurement Collaborative has engaged 100+ mid to large-sized Chamber member companies to facilitate the exchange of best practices, build a community of business leaders committed to diverse procurement practices, and create accountability through benchmarking. The Diverse Procurement Collaborative has proven essential to providing Black- and brown-owned businesses the opportunity to grow and thrive in Greater Philadelphia.
