Description:
The 8(a) Program is SBA's effort to promote equal access for socially and economically disadvantaged individuals to participate in the business sector of the nation's economy. Socially and economically disadvantaged individuals include Black Americans, Hispanic Americans, Native Americans, Asian Pacific Americans, and Subcontinent Asian Americans. Individuals not members of these minority groups who can demonstrate that they are socially and economically disadvantaged also may be eligible. SBA may provide participating firms with procurement, marketing, financial, management or other technical assistance. SBA may also enter into prime contracts with departments and agencies of the U.S. government to provide goods and services and subcontract the actual performance on the contracts to 8(a) approved firms. To assist 8(a) firms to develop self-sufficiency and successfully compete in the commercial market, SBA also provides a series of marketing tools to help participants obtain the support of major businesses. This workshop explains 8(a) eligibility requirements and application procedures. *Note: Firms should be in business for at least two years. Presented By: SBA 8(a) Program Representative
