Connect with buyers and suppliers in NI’s public sector market
Businesses from across Ireland have been invited to hear about upcoming procurement opportunities available within the public sector in Northern Ireland.
A ‘Meet the Buyer’ event will take place in Belfast City Hall on Wednesday 25 March 2026, 9am to 1pm, organised by Belfast City Council, in partnership with InterTradeIreland.
Open to businesses, social enterprises and voluntary and community organisations across the island of Ireland, the event will highlight a wide range of public procurement opportunities, including contracts available through the £850 million Belfast Region City Deal.
The council, other local authorities, Translink, NI Water, Belfast Health and Social Care Trust, the Department for Infrastructure, the NI Housing Executive, Education Authority, Construction and Procurement Delivery (CPD) and the Office of Government Procurement (Ireland) are among those taking part.
Attendees can chat directly to buyers and support organisations, including InterTradeIreland, the Federation of Small Businesses and Belfast Chamber, to hear more about how the procurement process works within the public sector in Northern Ireland and get practical advice and support on how to find and submit tender bids.
Places for the event are limited, and registration is essential. To sign up, visit the Belfast City Council website.
