Business & Career Expo

The Grow Workforce Partnership is excited to introduce the 2025 Grow Workforce Business & Career Expo, set for April 16 at the Great Bend Events Center. This event is designed to connect businesses with job seekers throughout Great Bend and the surrounding areas, providing a valuable opportunity for companies to showcase what makes them unique, engage with potential hires, and invest in the future of the local workforce.

Grow Workforce Summit has been expanded into two distinct events. The April 16 Business & Career Expo will focus on direct engagement between businesses and job seekers, helping companies find talent for full-time, part-time, and internship positions. Later in the year, the Grow Workforce Summit on November 12 will provide a day of education, inspiration, and networking for employers and managers.

Businesses participating in the Grow Workforce Business & Career Expo are encouraged to be set up by 3:30 PM to welcome early arrivals. Employers can use this opportunity to highlight career opportunities, build connections, and share open positions. To further attract job seekers, businesses can submit a list of current job openings for additional promotion. Those who are fully staffed can still take advantage of the event to increase brand awareness and educate attendees about their company’s role in the community. Additionally, businesses are invited to contribute a door prize valued at $10 or more to encourage more engagement at their booth.

The Grow Workforce Partnership is committed to strengthening the regional workforce by providing resources and networking opportunities that benefit both businesses and job seekers. Booth registration is now open, and businesses interested in participating can register for a $50 booth fee.
