Connect with qualified buyers through the AMPP Connect Contractor Program

AMPP launched an exclusive hosted buyer program in 2023, creating a new way for industry buyers and sellers to connect during the AMPP Annual Conference + Expo. With the AMPP Connect Contractor Program, corrosion mitigation companies (sellers) are matched with decision makers (buyers) who have expressed an interest in learning more about material protection products and solutions.

What is the AMPP Connect Contractor Program?

AMPP Connect - Contractors

Industry buyers and sellers waste a lot of time and resources trying to find each other to make those important business connections. The AMPP Connect Contractor Program is a hosted buyer program where pre-qualified buyers are invited to attend the AMPP Annual Conference + Expo for free, in exchange for attending brief and structured meetings with participating sellers. 

This year the program is focusing on helping contactors such as those involved in AMPP’s QP Program participate as a buyer. We see how important contractors are to corrosion mitigation and want to make sure they get the opportunity to make important connections and discover the latest products and services.
