About National Small Business Week
For over 50 years, The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has celebrated National Small Business Week (NSBW). This year, NSBW begins on April 28th and ends on May 4th. NSBW recognizes the critical contributions of America’s entrepreneurs and small business owners.
Register for the NSBW Free Virtual Summit on April 30th and May 1st. This two-day event, hosted by the SBA and co-hosted by SCORE, will include educational sessions, networking, and expert resources.
More than half of Americans either own or work for a small business; they create about two out of every three new jobs in the U.S. each year.
