On the Road with Cheshire

NVSBC VETS24 Conference in Orlando, FL

Earlier this year, we had the honor of working on the VETS24 Conference, held by the National Veteran Small Business Coalition at the 4-star Rosen Centre Hotel in Orlando.

This Conference is NVSBC’s premier annual event focused on helping Veterans grow their businesses. It brings together procurement-ready small businesses with buyers and Procurement Decision Makers (PDMs) from both Federal agencies and large GovCon prime contractors.

Come along and get an insider's perspective on this important conference from the point person for this show, Todd Uckermark. He was promoted to Account Manager from Production Manager after having "understudied" the role, watching how other account managers at Cheshire perform their responsibilities. He discusses how his role has changed since the promotion, some of the "puzzle pieces" he had to put together on the VETS24 Conference, and how this show differed from others.

You'll also discover what Joshua Frank, MIS, MBA, Managing Partner of RSM Federal and the Emcee for the conference had to say about working with Cheshire AV.
