CEDC EXHIBITS AT EPIC

Chamber EDC staff were exhibitors at Bismarck State College’s Energy Progress and Innovation Conference (EPIC) at the end of January. This was the conference that was formerly known as the Energy Generation Conference.

The EPIC was held at the Bismarck Event Center and showcased industry products and services to the energy generation industry. The event is a combination trade show and a professional development opportunity for employees in the industry.

This is a premier event for the energy generation industry. Chamber EDC staff was able to make several contacts with both Bismarck-Mandan businesses and those from outside the state. Previously, staff has been successful in generating contacts and have had a couple of business expansions into Bismarck-Mandan due to exhibiting at past shows.

Exhibiting at these types of trade shows are important in executing the Bismarck Mandan Chamber EDC’s business attraction efforts going forward. One of the Chamber EDC’s targeted industries in our business attraction efforts is value-added energy which fits with the makeup of the EPIC exhibitors and attendees.
