Native American- or veteran-owned businesses interested in exploring business partnerships, obtaining certifications, or learning about government contracts will have a great resource in the 2009 Native American & Veteran Business Conference & Trade Show. Run by the United Indians of All Tribes Foundation, the conference will be held on September 15th and 16th at the Tulalip Resort Convention Center in Tulalip, Washington.

The two-day conference and trade show will feature workshops specifically designed to help small businesses find new government marketplace opportunities in challenging economic times, as well as an enhanced, expanded matchmaking program that promises more productive appointments with federal and state agencies and prime contractors that are specifically looking for products and service offerings from Native American- and veteran-owned businesses.
