About The Event

Small Business, Big Changes 

Small businesses and government contractors may be facing significant changes as the SBA considers proposed updates to its size standards. These changes could reshape small business eligibility, growth strategies, government contracting opportunities, and the broader M&A landscape. 

The Indian American International Chamber of Commerce (IAICC) invites business owners, C-suite executives, government contractors, technology leaders, entrepreneurs, and M&A professionals to an exclusive private dinner and discussion focused on understanding the proposed SBA rule changes and what they could mean for businesses. 

The discussion will provide an opportunity to hear from experienced industry leaders, exchange perspectives, and explore how businesses can prepare for the potential changes and make their voices heard before the comment deadline closes.
