Cross RF is registered at the California Network® – Connectory

June 5th, 2009

In conjunction with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and the San Diego East County Economic Development Council, Cross RF is now registered on the online economic development website, Connectory.com – the California Network®. The goal of the Connectory is to capture the capabilities of California companies and provide a searchable directory for finding products and services.

Connectory.com® is California’s premier Buyer-Supplier Network; part of an ongoing project in support of an effort funded by public and non-profit sector partners in addition to DTRA, including the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), the Department of Labor (DOL), Department of Commerce, the California Space Authority, and others.

Now it is easier for government and private buyers to find Cross RF(www.crossrf.com) products and services they need in California.
