One room, three jurisdictions, one economy
DMV founders already work across state lines every week. BarterCon puts DC, Maryland and Virginia business owners in the same room so referrals, contracts and trades can happen face to face in a single day.
DC, Maryland, Virginia
The DMV Business Conference for Founders Who Want Progress

BarterCon™ 2027 gathers entrepreneurs from across DC, Maryland and Virginia in Landover, Maryland on February 19, 2027. It is the five-year anniversary conference of Barter Black® and it is designed as a working day, not a lecture hall.
Trade credits keep the value in the region
Barter Black® is a bartering marketplace where entrepreneurs can earn our trade credits, Barter Bucks℠, by selling their products and services and use them with other businesses in the marketplace. Every ticket includes 100 Barter Bucks℠ to spend with BarterCon vendors and hosts on the day.
You can hire a photographer, a designer or a strategist in the room without draining your cash reserves.
A schedule you can commit to
Doors at 9:00 AM, programming 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, marketplace and celebration until 5:30 PM. One day, no travel budget, no lost week.
