On Friday, SBA hosted hundreds of small business suppliers at our Supplier Matchmaking Expo in Washington, D.C.
SBA is proud to bring major corporations together with small manufacturers - strengthening domestic supply chains, supporting reshoring, and building a more resilient industrial base.

Get ready to see @NICKIMINAJ, @GrantCardone, @jgebbia, and @Deancain take the stage for SBA's MILLION DOLLAR PITCH COMPETITION alongside our five amazing finalists.
May the best small business owner win!
This morning, @SBA_Kelly previewed our upcoming Million Dollar Pitch Competition.
President Trump is honoring the best of America’s small businesses - who will soon compete for a share of $1 million sponsored by @clovercommerce.
Over the last year and a half, SBA has heard repeatedly that CMMC compliance is the single most costly and burdensome regulation that America’s small manufacturers face.
Today, following engagement with SBA, @DeptofWar has announced that they are suspending CMMC Phase II requirements – and reviewing the regulations to chart a path forward that protects cybersecurity without driving small businesses out of the defense industrial base.
This Administration will safeguard federal data. We will not let red tape choke off the innovation and supply chains our warfighters depend on.
Thank you @SecWar and @SBA_Kelly!

.@SBA_NewEngland Regional Administrator Peter Steele on the local impact of tax cuts this year in Vermont:
“The Working Family Tax Cuts extends the 199A passthrough deduction for small businesses. There are about 13,000 firms in Vermont that could be eligible for the deduction, or about 43% of all firms.”
