About this event

  • 8 hours 30 minutes

Championing diversity, equity and inclusion and living it out every day is fundamental to who we are at Cincinnati Children’s. We partner with organizations across the community and across the globe to build healthy communities and vital economies in the places where we live and work. Establishing relationships with diverse suppliers helps enable Cincinnati Children’s to fulfill our mission while allowing opportunities for minority/women/veteran/disability/LGBTQ-owned businesses to grow and expand. This year’s DirectConnect event will provide ample opportunity to share knowledge and connect with other vendors while hearing from local leaders about ways that minority-owned businesses can set themselves up for success.

This year's DirectConnect event has expanded to a full day event, providing ample opportunity to share knowledge and connect with other vendors while hearding from local leaders about ways that diverse-owned businesses can set themselves up for success.

While there is no cost to attend the event, we are asking a nominal fee of our booth sponsors that will be donated to support Seacrest Studios, a closed-circuit TV and radio station for pateints and families at Cincinnati Children's. If you would like to support Seacrest Studios, you can purchase items directly from their Amazon Wish List.
