Annual business expo given tech focus

  • 2015-04-15
The Queens Business Expo and Breakfast is being held next month, presented by the Queens Chamber of Commerce.

The theme of this year's event is ‘technology’ and it will feature three keynote speeches. The speakers are Alan Levy from Xchange Telecom, the Chief Digital Officer and Deputy Secretary for Technology for New York Rachel Haot, and Erik Grimmelmann of the New York Technology Council.

Local small business and organizations will also be hosting display tables. Fees are $595 for Queens Chamber of Commerce members and $695 for nonmembers, while nonprofit organizations can also host a half table for $345.

This will be a good opportunity for exposure and to foster communication between business peers. In addition, there are sponsorships available from $1,250 to $10,000, and advertisements that can be purchased in the event programs.

Many of those planning to attend this event will come from all over Queens, including from Bellerose. It is likely that some of those attending will be placing a new digital business card printing order beforehand so that they have enough on hand to exchange.

The Queens Business Expo and Breakfast will be held at the New York Mets Citi Field on May 13 from 8:00 am to 2:00 pm. Tickets are $35 each. For more information, to rent a table, or to become a sponsor, contact the chamber at 718-898-8500.
