The Northern Virginia Technology Council (NVTC) will host its second annual NVTC CXO Auction from 6 to 8 p.m. April 25 at The Ritz-Carlton in Tysons Corner. Regional and industry C-level executives will be “auctioned off” to raise money for NVTC’s Veterans Employment Initiative, which provides tools and resources to match veterans with employment opportunities in Virginia’s technology community. During the live auction event, attendees will bid electronically to win one-on-one meetings with C-level leaders.
Participating CXOs are looking to meet qualified vendors for future projects. Winning bidders are guaranteed a meeting with their auctioned executive within 12 months, during which they can gain insight, pitch future plans or receive advice.
