VBIA Regional Roundtable Meetings

A primary objective of the VBIA is to organize and present regional roundtable discussion meetings throughout Virginia. The purpose of the roundtable meetings is to further the process of business incubation by bringing together both public and private organizations engaged in business support. Through these discussions, the VBIA tries to help integrate the overall business incubation and support process and therefore enhancing business development and growth in Virginia.

Next Roundtable

The Virginia Business Incubation Association (VBIA) invites you to attend our Regional Roundtable discussion on Entrepreneurship and Small Business Development. Small entrepreneurial companies have been important drivers for growth in our country. They have been change agents in the economy and the society, forcing the country to new productivity levels and radically transforming whole industries. According to the Small Business Administration an estimated 44 percent of all new jobs in the US are created by startup companies that often begin with only a few employees and grow into large successful firms.
 
VBIA is hosting meetings throughout the Commonwealth to discuss entrepreneurship and to promote new ideas and strategies.  Join us for the Northern Virginia Roundtable in Fairfax County on September 14, 2010 from 11:00 a.m.to 2:00 p.m. located at:
