SBA: National Small Business Week 2017 Kicks Off April 30

WASHINGTON –U.S. Small Administration kicks off National Small Business Week 2017 on April 30 in the nation’s capital by having SBA Administrator Linda McMahon recognize and award the nation’s top small businesses, entrepreneurs, small business advocates and champions.

Since 1963, the president of the United States has issued a proclamation calling for the celebration of National Small Business Week. This year National Small Business Week will be recognized from April 30-May 6 with national events planned in Washington, D.C, New York City, Indianapolis, Dallas and Fresno, California. Events throughout the week will be live-streamed on SBA’s website at www.sba.gov/nsbw.

Every year, National Small Business Week is made possible thanks in part to the support of cosponsors.  Our Silver, Bronze and Supporting level sponsors have provided the resources to make this recognition week possible.
