Small Biz Basics: Small Biz Graduation

The goal of the small business program is ultimately to develop these small companies into larger companies that no longer need to the compete only among like-sized peers.  However, many small businesses have difficulty navigating the transition from small to large business and competing against all interested companies.  This session will discuss 8(a) required transition periods, tips and strategies to consider as small businesses near their size graduation, and future contractual relationships.  Finally, as mergers and acquisitions increase, the session will discuss the potential sale of a small business to another business or owner and what small businesses should bear in mind in advance of related discussions.
