Bringing Community and Businesses Together

ABOUT THE EXPO

Our mission is to bring community and businesses together in the Monadnock Region for 2 days of fun, entertainment and networking. Our hope is to strengthen our local economy.

The Monadnock Business & Community Expo is a 2-day event at the Keene Ice Arena presented by Silver Direct and the Greater Monadnock Collaborative. The 2024 Expo is scheduled for June 1st and 2nd.

Participating Businesses include large and small businesses in the greater Monadnock region … both for-profit and non-profit – business to business and business to consumer... all businesses are welcome! In addition to giving businesses a platform to showcase and sell their products and services, the Monadnock Business & Community Expo will provide an opportunity for businesses looking to recruit new employees.

Participating Manufacturers in the INNOVATION ALLEY (new in 2024) will have the opportunity to come up with a science fair-like project to showcase their state-of-the-art technologies and capabilities are and compete to win the “Best Innovation Award” (voted on by attendees to the Monadnock Business Expo)

Attendees to the Expo will have opportunities to meet local businesses and manufacturers, purchase products and services and meet with companies looking to hire. Attendees will have the chance to win door prizes, vendor prizes and a grand door prize of $1,500. We hope attendees will walk away with a better knowledge of the products and services available right here in our community and help our economy grow and expand through buying locally.
