AMERICA'S SMALL BUSINESS SUMMIT

The 2009 Summit, now in its fifth year, will return on Monday, May 11 at the Renaissance Washington, DC Hotel.

America's Small Business Summit provides an opportunity for small business supporters to come together around common concerns, hear the latest on pressing policy issues from the experts, and bring the collective voice of business to Congress.

Register for the 2009 Summit

"From networking to lobbying, America's Small Business Summit provided a wealth of knowledge to help you and your business needs.  Being a President of a company can be overwhelming and challenging at times and I find it so helpful to join others in this great organization so focused on our business issues."
