Just got back from the 2024 National HUBZone Conference in Chantilly, Virginia, and it was a brief, but highly productive trip! I had the opportunity to connect with Michelle Burnett Executive Director of the HUBZone Contractors National Council, and Shirley Bailey the Board Chair. The sessions were packed with valuable information, particularly from Lori Gillen SBA Director of the HUBZone program, and Laura Maas Deputy Director, who shared some exciting news and updates on the program. I connected with SBA Associate Administrator of the Office of Government Contracting and Business Development (GCBD), Jackie Robinson-Burnette who along with Sam Le, SBA Director of Policy Planning and Liaison, provided an in-depth look at the latest policy developments and regulatory changes from the SBA and DCMA. It was incredibly helpful to get these insights and understand how they might impact HUBZone businesses. #HUBZone #HUBZoneMatoc #SBA #Networking #SmallBusiness #GovernmentContracting #PolicyUpdates
