Ontario Public Buyers Association 2026 Reverse Vendor Tradeshow


OPBA Reverse Vendor Tradeshow 2026

Wednesday, October 21, 2026
Pearson Convention Centre, Brampton

OECM will be exhibiting at OPBA’s 7th Annual Reverse Vendor Tradeshow.

Unlike a traditional tradeshow, public-sector procurement organizations are the exhibitors and suppliers move through the show to meet them. The event brings public buyers and suppliers together for networking, Information Talks, optional Speed Networking and supplier education.

Public Organizations: Exhibit at No Cost

OECM customers and other public-sector organizations are invited to participate as public agency exhibitors.

Exhibiting provides an opportunity to connect with suppliers, share information about procurement processes and requirements, and help businesses better understand how to work with public organizations.

Registration is complimentary for public agency exhibitors. Space is limited, and organizations are encouraged to register early. The deadline to apply is September 10, 2026, subject to availability.

Suppliers: Attend and Connect with Public Buyers

OECM suppliers and other businesses serving the public sector are encouraged to attend.

Event Highlights

  • Meet public-sector procurement professionals and build new connections
  • Attend Information Talks on current procurement topics
  • Take part in optional 10-minute Speed Networking meetings
  • Join the afternoon Supplier Education Session: Inside the Evaluation Process: How to Adapt and Strengthen Your Bid
