Poster Walk

Enjoy Exposure to a national audience

Stating that 2020 was a bit of a roller coaster is an understatement. It was more like a whirlwind! However, while it presented a great deal of challenges, it also offered numerous opportunities. The one word we can all agree on to describe 2020 is DISRUPTION. Lives were disrupted and so were businesses. Doors were closed but new ones were opened and well received challenges presented themselves.

This year’s Poster Walk competition theme is “OVERCOMING DISRUPTION.” We want to know how your company navigated the disruptive waters of 2020 when the whole world seemed to be drowning.

The Poster Walk is a great opportunity to tell your story to a national audience. We want to hear it; they want to hear it; and hopefully, you want to tell it! The Atlanta MBDA Advanced Manufacturing Center invites all MBE attendees to submit a poster design and participate in this year’s Poster Walk Competition.

Participants will submit details of one project that their company completed while showcasing this year’s theme of OVERCOMING DISRUPTION. We want to get a good look at your disruptions, solutions, and more importantly, your LEAPS FORWARD toward success in 2021 and beyond.
