ENSURING A STRONG SMALL BUSINESS COMMUNITY 

HASBAT, a non-profit organization, was founded in May of 1993 by local small technology companies to represent and promote the views and interests of small businesses in advanced technology and to support the development of opportunities within the federal, state, and/or local governments. We host training sessions, monthly meetings to include speakers from Government as well as industry, and present multiple awards and scholarships. 

SB ADVOCATE OF THE YEAR 

Each year, HASBAT recognizes local individuals or organizations who have been instrumental in fostering a culture of identifying innovation in small businesses and partnering with those businesses to win government contracts. Awardees contributions may also have been demonstrated by activities and/or undertakings accomplished in advising and advancing business interests for local high tech small businesses.
