SBC Informational Update
SAME’s 2025 Federal Small Business Conference will proceed Nov. 19-21 in Phoenix, regardless of the status of the government.
While we know the lapse in appropriations raises questions, SAME remains committed to enabling our mission of industry-government engagement. The conference will continue as scheduled, focusing on building essential relationships and partnerships within the federal A/E/C sector. With registration currently at 4,000 and growing daily, SBC will bring together the largest number of stakeholders that support America's engineering and technology needs.
We are in constant communication with our federal partners about planning for the event, and we are exploring contingency approaches to the program should they be necessary. We also are closely learning from other similar events that have been held this fall and which have had to adjust due to the shutdown and the extent or nature of government participation.
SBC’s core mission of fostering partnerships, developing trust and highlighting innovation among the nation's industrial base remains unchanged. We look forward to seeing you in Phoenix to accelerate readiness for our nation.
