“We are excited to be hosting the 40th edition of this magnificent event. Throughout all these years, MEDWeek has connected minority, women and veteran owned-businesses with billions of dollars in contracts and procurement opportunities,” said Marie Gill, Founder & CEO of M.

This includes 22 businesses from Guatemala, in addition to delegations from Belize, OWIT Nigeria; Ghana, Morocco, Martinique and several other Caribbean countries. MEDWeek will partner with FITCE in Broward to accommodate inbound visitors who wish to meet with organizations and businesses in Miami-Dade County.

Florida’s 40th MEDWeek will host its Legacy Awards Gala. It will be held on Saturday evening, October 22nd, following an International Networking Reception.
