SUMMARY:HUBZone Program
DESCRIPTION:Presented by SBA's Michigan  District   Office\n\n \n\nThe HUBZone program fuels small business growth in historically underutilized business zones with a goal of awarding at least 3% of federal contract dollars to HUBZone-certified companies each year.\n\n\nJoining the HUBZone program makes your business eligible to compete for the program's set-aside contracts. HUBZone-certified businesses also get a 10% price evaluation preference in full and open contract competitions.\n\nHUBZone-certified businesses can still compete for contract awards under other socio-economic programs they qualify for.\n\n\n\nSpeaker:\n\n\nGabrielle Coner is a Business Opportunity Specialist with the Michigan District Office of the U.S. Small Business Administration. She currently manages the entire 8(a) Business Development portfolio throughout the State of Michigan and specializes in Federal Contracting opportunities for small business owners.\n\n\n\nhttps://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/0666a7ab-88b6-4ff7-a96a-b970a0a373ae@253e7787-672d-4071-9290-fc3db5246db7
