Please join me at the SAME Small Business Conference (SBC) on Friday, November 17 for the Minority Owned and 8(a) Certified SB Luncheon!

How will you learn how to stay on the cutting edge and win contracts on your time-strapped schedule?
This Small Business Networking Luncheon has the answer for you. We have four industry experts from different segments of the 8(a) and minority business development arena to help you move your business ahead of the curve on your lunch hour!
