TEDCO’s Entrepreneur Expo has been chosen for the 2020 Economic Development Marketing Award from The Maryland Economic Development Association (MEDA). The MEDA Awards recognize the truly excellent projects, programs and people in the Maryland economic development community.
“It’s a great honor for our team to receive this recognition for all of the hard work that goes into the event,” said Tammi Thomas, TEDCO’s Vice President of Marketing. “The TEDCO Expo is our most anticipated event of the year, with so many exciting opportunities and connections that we’re able to bring to our Maryland entrepreneurs and the innovation community.”
TEDCO’s Entrepreneur Expo is an annual conference recognized as the premiere entrepreneurial event in Maryland and draws over 1,000 attendees. The attendees can expect a day of pitching opportunities, workshops and roundtable discussions related to Maryland entrepreneurship and innovation. Attendance and engagement with the conference has grown steadily since its start in 2010, thanks to the marketing efforts of TEDCO, which draw on an active digital and social media presence.
“The success of TEDCO’s marketing of this event has been phenomenal,” says Heather Gramm, CEcD, MEDA president. “They have leveraged all their resources to meet and exceed their goals in terms of attendance, attendee satisfaction and overall conference quality.”
The 2020 awards will be presented during the MEDA Annual Conference this September. To learn more, register for the conference and the awards dinner, visit https://www.medamd.com/event/2020-meda-annual-conference/
