National APEX Day 2023

Thursday
October 12, 2023
Join us on October 12 to celebrate 6th Annual National APEX Day! It will be inspiring to see all the business success stories, events, and trainings throughout the country.
APEX Accelerators (formerly Procurement Technical Assistance Centers or PTACs) will host National APEX Day on October 12, 2023, in U.S. cities nationwide. The event, previously known as National PTAC Day, will celebrate the success of the tens of thousands of small businesses that have leveraged APEX Accelerators’ training and technical assistance to successfully compete for and win federal, state and local government contracts. This is the first national event for APEX Accelerators since rebranding from PTACs last year.
During National APEX Day, APEX Accelerators in 50 states, including Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands, along with the 56,000 clients they serve, will share real-time stories of small business success and the significant economic impact that APEX Accelerator clients have made in their communities.
This special day will be celebrated with social media campaigns, public relations initiatives and online and in-person events.
