We are excited to announce that registration is now open for the 2026 Union County Means Business Expo, taking place on

Wednesday, September 9, 2026, from 5:00 PM to 7:30 PM at Kean University's Downs Hall in Union, New Jersey.

Thanks to the tremendous growth and success of past UCMB events, we are proud to move the Expo to a larger venue this year, allowing us to welcome even more businesses, entrepreneurs, and community partners from throughout Union County and beyond.

The Union County Means Business Expo has become one of the premier networking events in the region, bringing together professionals, business owners, resource providers, chambers of commerce, and economic development organizations for an evening of meaningful connections and opportunity. The Union County Means Business Expo is designed to bring together the people, organizations, and resources that drive our local economy. Attendees will have the opportunity to network with fellow business professionals, connect with chambers of commerce and economic development partners, learn about programs and services available to support growth, and establish new relationships that can lead to future collaborations and business opportunities.

Attendance is free for all guests, making it an excellent opportunity to expand your network and engage with the local business community. Businesses and organizations interested in exhibiting may reserve a vendor table for $100, which includes the opportunity to showcase products, services, and resources directly to attendees. Vendor space is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Of course, the opportunities to promote your business don't have to wait until September. You can start building visibility and connecting with new audiences this summer through the Union County Watch Party Hub. As Union County welcomes visitors and World Cup fans during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, businesses, restaurants, breweries, and community organizations are encouraged to showcase watch parties, special events, and promotions through this free promotional platform. To learn more and register your event, visit https://ucnj.org/ucwatchparty/ and be sure to use #UCWatchParty on social media to help spread the word.

We encourage you to register today and join us for what promises to be our largest and most impactful Expo yet. Additional event information and registration can be found at ucnj.org/ucmb .

We look forward to seeing you on September 9th and continuing our shared commitment to supporting economic growth, entrepreneurship, and business success throughout Union County.
