CONNEX Marketplace is excited to announce our new partnership with GENEDGE Alliance (Virginia’s official Manufacturing Extension Partnership organization) for the rollout of CONNEX™ Virginia, a new program designed to strengthen the local and domestic manufacturing supply chain.

CONNEX™ Virigina is a powerful online manufacturer-supplier database and connectivity platform provided as a no-cost resource for Virginia manufacturers and suppliers. The platform will combine Virginia manufacturer and supplier data into a single, accurate, searchable scouting-database to better connect manufacturers, provide supply chain visualizations and displays workforce and R&D efforts within a region. This will allow buyers, manufacturers and suppliers to quickly post and respond to needs, visualize supply chain risk, search for qualified suppliers and discover new business opportunities.

Manufacturing plays a central role in Virginia’s economy and we are excited that they have chosen to be the 9th state to launch with CONNEX Marketplace. They will be joining other state/regional platform installations including Utah, Florida, Oklahoma, Missouri and Kansas, Michigan, El Paso and Tennessee.

CONNEX Virginia is slated to launch the first week of December, 2022. More details will be announced soon!
