MBDA Bridgeport Center Grand Opening - Friday, November 8

The GNEMSDC successfully competed against six other communities around the country and won the four-year $1,020,000 contract to operate the Bridgeport MBDA Business Center. The Center will have a focus on building Native American and Alaskan Native owned enterprises along with other MBEs throughout the region. The Bridgeport Center will work very closely with and build on the work of the GNEMSDC operated Boston MBDA Business Center. The GNEMSDC is one of two NMSDC regional affiliates that now operate multiple centers.

This Friday from 4:00 PM to 6:30 PM, the GNEMSDC will host an open house that is open to all GNEMSDC corporate members, certified MBEs and others to come by and officially open the Center. MBDA National Director, David Hinson will be on hand to help us celebrate this important event. Invitations have been sent to Governor Malloy, Senators Blumenthal and Murphy, Congressman Himes, Mayor Finch and other elected and appointed political leaders. We also expect the local and regional media to be on hand to document and report on this important event.

If you are interested in joining in the celebration, please call Jerilynn Clarke at 203-288-9744. We will have light refreshments from Cast Iron Soul Catering. It promises to be a great way to start your weekend.
