HUBZone Certification Program-Updates & Overview

NOTE: The Alaska PTAC has been renamed as Alaska APEX Accelerator. This change occurred on September 15, 2023. Learn why.

The Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) Program helps small businesses in urban and rural communities gain preferential access to federal procurement opportunities. The mission is to promote job growth, and capital investment to small businesses located in these economically distressed communities. The HUBZone program fuels small business growth in historically underutilized business zones with a goal of awarding at least three percent (3%) of federal contract dollars to HUBZone-certified companies each year. SBA has made it easier for qualified small businesses to participate in the HUBZone program. Join the Alaska Procurement Technical Assistance Center (PTAC) and the US Small Business Administration (SBA) for this free webinar to see how the HUBZone program can benefit your business. During this webinar we will provide overview of the program, including the new changes, explain the eligibility criteria in detail, discuss the benefits to be derived from HUBZone Certification, and how to apply.
