On June 11, 2026, SPLEX One participated in the LaGuardia 2026 Connections to Contracts Government and Business Expo, hosted by LaGuardia Business Services and the APEX Accelerator at LaGuardia Community College. Now a fixture on New York City's procurement calendar, the Expo continues to serve as one of the most direct forums for diverse businesses to engage with the agencies and primes that drive public-sector opportunity across the five boroughs.
This year's event drew an impressive cross-section of city agencies and major organizations, including the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, NYC School Construction Authority, NYC Housing Authority, NYC Department of Education MWBE Office, Turner Construction, Empire State Development, New York Power Authority, and Goldman Sachs 10K Small Businesses, among others. Remarks were delivered by Michael J. Garner, Chief Business Diversity Officer for the City of New York; Nelson Ortiz, Director of the LaGuardia APEX Accelerator; and Kenneth Adams, President of LaGuardia Community College, reflecting the city's continued investment in inclusive procurement and supplier diversity.
SPLEX One was proud to be among the exhibitors, engaging directly with procurement officials, agency representatives, and corporate partners throughout the day. Our presence gave us the opportunity to present our capabilities in multicultural media production, creative services, print, and digital strategy, while reinforcing our commitment to serving public-sector clients with professionalism, creativity, and cultural fluency.
As a certified MBE/DBE firm, showing up at events like Connections to Contracts is not just about visibility, it is about being in the room where partnerships are built.
We thank the LaGuardia Business Services and APEX Accelerator teams for hosting another well-organized and impactful event, and we look forward to continuing the conversations that began on the floor.
