T hank you to everyone who participated in his years Business to Business Exchange. The B2B event is one of the largest fund raisers off ered through the AAMD Alliance. This year’s event was held at the Wellshire Event Center in Denver and was the most successful yet! Many owners dedicated their valuable time and numerous supplier members enjoyed this "speed dating" event format for networking and presenting their products and services. Every ten minutes bells were rung to notify suppliers to move on to the next owner. This allowed suppliers to meet with upwards of 8 - 14 diff erent owner companies! Presenting Sponsors: Gold Sponsors: Silver Sponsors: This year, we raised approximately $55,000! These funds will be focused toward supporting candidates who advance and protect our industry.
