Small Business Federal Contracting Forum, 6/28/10

On April 26, 2010, President Obama issued a Presidential Memorandum establishing an Interagency Task Force to develop proposals and
recommendations for enhancing the use of small businesses in Federal contracting, including businesses owned by women, minorities, socially and
economically disadvantaged individuals, and service-disabled veterans of our Armed Forces.

The Small Business Administration (SBA), the Department of Commerce (DOC), and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), who serve as co-chairs of the Task Force, invite interested parties from both the public and private sectors to offer their views on the challenges small businesses face in pursuing federal contracts, on best practices for overcoming these challenges and increasing small business participation in the Federal marketplace.

The Small Business Federal Contracting Forum will be conducted on June 28, 2010 at 1PM Eastern time to allow interested parties the opportunity to voice comments on these and related issues. This public meeting will be held in the auditorium of the Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington DC 20230.

The public is asked to pre-register by 5PM Eastern time on June 21, 2010, due to security and seating limitations. Registration is on a first-come first-served basis and space is limited. To pre-register, please send an e-mail to SB_TaskForce_Comment@sba.gov with your name, organization or small
business that you represent, along with contact information, any special accommodations that you may require, and the topics that you are interested
in. Please put “Registration” in the subject line of the email.  Registration on June 28, 2010 at the meeting location will begin at 12PM Eastern time on June 28, 2010 and the meeting will start at 1PM Eastern time.

Parties are also encouraged to provide written comments directly to SB_TaskForce_Comment@sba.gov  by June 30. Please put “Comment” in the
