This year’s conference moves to Asheville, where you’ll find luxury at the Omni Grove Park Inn. As one of the first SBA lending events in 2024, sponsorships and attendance will SELL OUT quickly, so we recommend registering early. Take note of this year’s NEW Agenda – we will begin our conference on Wednesday afternoon and end with breakout sessions on Friday for even more learning time and a less hectic schedule on Thursday!
Extend your trip by adding the Friday and Saturday nights after the conference (space is limited) to enjoy all that Asheville has to offer and enjoy the mountainous scenery in style with us.
We will provide some of the top training in the industry over a 3-day period with keynote speakers on SBA relevant topics, economic forecast, and breakout sessions with topics for all levels and roles in SBA lending. Take advantage of this opportunity to participate in collaborative small-group discussions that include colleagues from broad SBA lending roles and tenures. Past speakers have included representatives from the U.S. SBA’s Office of Capital Access, Office of Credit Risk Management, Office of the Administrator, Export and International Trade, as well as representatives from NAGGL and NADCO, Economics professors and other engaging keynote speakers.
Sponsorship opportunities are currently available. Registering early will provide you the best selection of sponsor choices and exhibit table locations.

We are excited to announce the new schedule for the 2024 conference. As per the feedback and suggestions from our attendees, we have made some changes to the schedule to make it more convenient and enjoyable for everyone.
The opening session of the conference will now take place on Wednesday afternoon at 3:00 pm, allowing attendees to settle in and get ready for the exciting days ahead. The conference will conclude with breakout sessions on Friday, providing ample time for attendees to network, share ideas, and learn from each other.
Our conference offers a robust itinerary with quality educational opportunities. This year’s keynote speaker will be Dr. Roger Tutterow, Director of the Econometric Center and Professor of Economics at Kennesaw State University.
Our breakout sessions include relevant topics applicable to every role in the SBA lending process and level of experience. Look for updates to this year’s general session and breakout session topics to be announced via email blasts and on our website as the agenda evolves.
