Getting Down to (Small) Business
Each month, NSBA holds a Leadership Council orientation, where new members can learn about our advocacy efforts and your role in promoting the needs of small business.
NSBA also holds a monthly networking meeting or programming designed for our Leadership Council, where you can tell everyone about yourself and your business, as well as meet with other small-business leaders from across the country.

LC Councils
Did you know NSBA also has two additional councils focusing on technology and exporting? The Small Business Exporters Association promotes policies that help small exporters expand their global footprint, and NSBA's Small Business Technology Council is the preeminent small-business expert on Federal Innovation Programs SBIR/STTR and IP rules protecting small business.
NSBA is truly a member-driven organization, with our policy issues and initiative mandates set biennially at our Small Business Congress. Already on track with two big wins for our agenda this Congress, we hope you'll use your voice in a big way to help small business and join us to amplify NSBA's mandate from the small-business community.
