Trend - Brands are increasingly attending conferences and fairs that promote businesses from diverse suppliers. These events, which typically feature minority-, women-, veteran-, and LGBTQ+-owned companies, foster relationships between large corporations in search of vendors that meet diversity criteria.

Insight - The demand for inclusive business practices has incentivized many companies to reevaluate their supplier diversity strategies and seek new partnerships from historically disadvantaged communities. To address this, many leadership teams are opting for physical experiences to connect with and better understand the services underrepresented businesses can offer. These companies recognize that their customers desire authenticity and want to see that reflected in the brands they support.
