In this popular 2018 webinar, GovCon Chamber president Neil McDonnell explains how the SBA's HUBZone Program promotes small businesses in "Historically Underutilized Business Zones" across America.

➡ The government limits competition for certain contracts to businesses in HUBZones. It also gives preferential consideration to those businesses in full and open competition.

Joining the HUBZone program makes your business eligible to compete for the program’s setaside contracts.

. HUBZonecertified businesses also get a 10% price evaluation preference in full and open contract competitions. HUBZonecertified businesses can still compete for contract awards under other socioeconomic programs they qualify for.

Many small businesses may qualify or have certifications in multiple categories–
➡ Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB) & 8(a),
➡ ServiceDisabled VeteranOwned Small Business (SDVOSB),
➡. VeteranOwned Small Business (VOSB),
➡. WomanOwned Small Business (WOSB), and
➡ Economic Disadvantaged WomanOwned Small Business (EDWOSB).

✅ Qualified Business must be :
• a small business according to SBA size standards
• at least 51% owned and controlled by U.S. citizens, a Community Development Corporation, an agricultural cooperative, an Alaska Native corporation, a Native Hawaiian organization, or an Indian tribe
• Have its principal office located in a HUBZone
• Have at least 35% of its employees living in a HUBZone

ALERT | The HUBZone map is changing on July 1, 2023. Visit the SBA for details
