The 2013 B2B Industry Show is scheduled for March 19 at the Hyatt Regency Valencia. This years event will feature a keynote address from Men’s Wearhouse founder George Zimmer.
“More than ever, personal connections are one of the most vital foundational elements in a business relationship,” said Kathy Norris, president and CEO of the Valley Industry Association, one of the event’s sponsors. “The B2B show provides an atmosphere where professionals can make face-to-face connections and lay the groundwork for doing business together.”

This year’s exhibition hall will feature booths from nearly 50 local Santa Clarita companies. Attendees can complete a “B2B Passport,” with prizes given out for the most stamps collected. There will also be a VIP reception featuring drinks at the B2B Lava Lounge and the opportunity for business networking.
“My target is to reach other businesses in the SCV and develop long-term relationships. The B2B show has definitely allowed me to do that,” said Deborah Grandinetti of Valencia-based Payroll Providers. She said while she views the B2B show as primarily a networking opportunity, she has repeatedly garnered new clients there.
