Why the SBA Mentor-Protégé Program is Strategic:

The SBA Mentor-Protégé Program is a powerful strategy for small businesses aiming to enhance their capabilities and compete for government contracts. By partnering with experienced mentors, protégés receive critical business development support in areas such as internal management, financial assistance, federal contract bidding, and strategic planning. This program not only facilitates growth but also enables small businesses to qualify for set-aside contracts, fostering significant opportunities for expansion and success in the competitive federal marketplace.
