Why Attend the 2024 EXPO?

Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) and partner agencies will be holding the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) and Small Business Transportation EXPO on Tuesday, May 7, 2024.

At this in-person event, opportunities to build new relationships, make sales pitches, learn of future projects, and connections will abound at the 2024 ADOT DBE & Small Business Transportation Expo on Tuesday, May 7.

Participants can chat with leaders from government agencies and other hiring companies in the transportation industry and hear about upcoming projects at ADOT, City of Phoenix Streets Transportation Department, Sky Harbor International Airport and Valley Metro.
