Here’s a quick look at the SBM 2022 Conference held in May. Thank you again to our amazing speakers, generous sponsors, and to everyone who joined us. If you weren’t able to make it, we hope to see you next year!
We’ll be back again for the 7th annual SBM Conference on May 17, 2024!
On Friday, May 20, the Small Business Matters Conference took place at the City Springs Conference Center in Sandy Springs, Georgia. The theme for this year’s event was Celebrating Small Business, and it was quite a celebration with over 200 registered guests, 10 great speakers, and a surprise visit from one of our country’s forefathers, Ben Franklin.
The cause for the celebration was twofold: First, the Small Business Administration recognized May as National Small Business Month, and second, it was our first opportunity to meet and gather at a large in-person event in over two years.
Speaker presentations touched on several key areas for small business leaders including customer-centricity, understanding your brand, and leadership in uncertain times.
Mark your calendars for May 17, 2024!
The SBM 2024 Conference will be held at City Springs Conference Center in Sandy Springs.
