The Airport Business Diversity Conference is the primary vehicle for the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) and the Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (ACDBE) community to informatively engage with the airport business environment. The conference provides participants with business networking and educational opportunities including public policy issues impacting the entire aviation industry; providing immeasurable benefits to all conference participants. With DBEs and ACDBEs seeking fair and substantive levels of participation as airport vendors, professional services providers, construction and concessionaires, this conference is the paramount business networking forum. NERA was a sponsor of this year's event.
