  The 2026 National HUBZone Conference is almost here, and we are excited to welcome government leaders, prime contractors, HUBZone small businesses, exhibitors, sponsors, and resource partners from across the country to the Westfields Marriott Washington Dulles in Chantilly, Virginia, on July 21–22, 2026. This year's conference will feature two days of keynote presentations, educational workshops, executive panel discussions, networking opportunities, AI-powered business matchmaking, and one of the largest gatherings of the HUBZone contracting community. The final conference agenda is now available, and we encourage all attendees to review the schedule and begin planning their conference. 

  
  

  Due to the overwhelming response to this year's event, the Exhibit Hall is officially sold out, and Government Buyer and Prime Contractor matchmaking has reached capacity. Because of space limitations within the matchmaking area, we are unable to accept additional Government agencies or Prime Contractors requesting dedicated matchmaking tables. However, conference registration remains open, and attendees who have not yet registered are welcome to register online or on-site at the conference. We are still accepting HUBZone small businesses interested in participating in networking and matchmaking activities. Small businesses that register for the conference, including those who register on-site, will be eligible to participate in matchmaking by creating and completing their Proximity Intel company profile, which powers our AI-assisted networking and matchmaking platform.

  
  

  Although the conference hotel is currently sold out, several nearby hotels remain available, and additional lodging information, conference details, registration information, and attendee resources can be found on the conference website at

  •  
    2:00 PM

    Webinar

  

  Breaking into federal contracting and sustaining success requires more than just a certification. Small businesses that strategically sequence their growth from local and state opportunities to federal contracts have a clear competitive edge. This session will unpack a practical roadmap for leveraging certifications (8(a), WOSB, HUBZone, SDVOSB, MBE, and more) alongside targeted contract pursuits to build past performance, strengthen capabilities, and position for long-term wins.

  Using the Crawl-Walk-Run-Fly model, our panel will share real-world examples of businesses that started with local government contracts, built strong teaming relationships, and scaled into multimillion-dollar federal opportunities. We’ll explore the evolving federal landscape, including current industry trends, SBA program updates, and high-growth areas like cybersecurity, AI, and infrastructure. Attendees will walk away with actionable strategies to identify the right opportunities, create winning proposals, and manage compliance for sustainable growth whether they’re just starting or ready to graduate to larger contracts.

  Discover how to strategically grow your government contracting portfolio starting with local and state opportunities, then scaling to federal success. Learn how to leverage certifications, build past performance, and adapt to market trends to win more contracts.

• How Small Businesses Can Turn Compliance into a Competitive Advantage

  • When
    29 Jul 2026
  •  
    2:00 PM
  • Location
    Webinar

  

  Many small-business owners believe regulations don’t apply to them and that compliance is only for big companies. They assume they can fly under the radar. But that’s simply not the case. While larger businesses face more complex requirements, small businesses still have legal obligations—and ignoring them can lead to serious consequences. In this session, we’ll debunk common compliance myths and explore why staying on top of filings, permits, and licenses is critical—no matter the size of your business. Attendees will learn: Whether you’re a solopreneur or running a fast-growing business, this session will give you actionable insights to turn compliance from a burden into a growth driver. Leave with a clear roadmap to ensure your business stays protected and is always ready to seize new opportunities.

  • The real risks of non-compliance, from financial penalties and reputational damage to administrative dissolution, all because of overlooked requirements.

  • Why an annual “compliance check-up” is essential to identify gaps before they become costly problems.

  • How compliance can be a strategic advantage, opening doors to government contracts, geographic expansion, and new revenue streams.

  • The role of technology in simplifying compliance, including how modern tools provide real-time visibility, automate deadlines, and keep businesses in good standing.

• Managing ADA Accommodation Requests in the Modern Workplace

  • When
    30 Jul 2026
  •  
    1:00 PM - 2:30 PM
  • Location
    Webinar

  

  Overview

  Learn how to handle ADA accommodation requests, hidden requests, documentation, remote work, and interactive process risks.

  Overview:

  Disability accommodation requests have become one of the most difficult areas of workplace compliance because they rarely arrive in a clean, textbook form. An employee may mention anxiety, chronic pain, diabetes, pregnancy-related restrictions, recurring absences, a food allergy, difficulty standing, a need for extra breaks, a request to work from home, or trouble meeting performance expectations — and suddenly the employer must decide whether the ADA, the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, leave laws, internal policies, medical documentation rules, and business operations are all in play.

  The risk is not limited to denying the wrong request. Employers can create legal exposure by missing an informal request, waiting too long to respond, asking the wrong medical questions, forcing leave when another accommodation may work, withdrawing a prior accommodation, applying attendance or performance rules too rigidly, or allowing a supervisor to handle the conversation without proper documentation. Recent EEOC activity continues to show that accommodation mistakes can quickly turn into charges, settlements, policy changes, training requirements, and federal lawsuits when an employer cannot show that it engaged in a good-faith interactive process.

  This webinar will help employers understand what the interactive process should look like in real workplace situations. What should you do when an employee never uses the word “accommodation,” but clearly signals a medical limitation? How should HR respond when a disability disclosure appears in the middle of discipline or performance management? When should remote work, schedule changes, extra breaks, leave, modified duties, or other alternatives be considered? And how can an employer support the employee without simply agreeing to every request?

  Led by Janette S. Levey, Esq., a Workplace Legal Strategist and Employment Law expert with more than 20 years of legal experience, this session will give attendees a practical employer-side roadmap for managing accommodation requests before they become larger legal and employee-relations problems. Drawing from her work helping big, small and mid-sized businesses manage workforce legal risk, Janette will explain how employers can recognize accommodation triggers, conduct and document the interactive process, avoid common legal traps, and make decisions that are consistent, defensible, empathetic, and compliant.

  Areas covered in the session:

  • The Modern Definition of Disability: Who is genuinely entitled to an accommodation under the ADA and current EEOC enforcement priorities.
  • The "Hidden" Request: How to recognize a request for accommodation even when an employee doesn't use legal terminology.
  • Performance vs. Disability: How to legally address conduct or performance issues when a disability is suspected or suddenly disclosed mid-discipline.
  • Step-by-Step Interactive Process: How to initiate, conduct, and document the initial discussion to protect your organization.
  • Beyond the Pandemic: Navigating modern accommodation battlegrounds, including remote work mandates, chronic illnesses, and mental health challenges.
  • Collaboration Without Capitulation: How to host an interactive meeting without simply giving in to an employee's exact demands.
  • The Finish Line: When and how can an employer legally deny, alter, or bring an accommodation to an end.

  Handouts:

  Attendees will gain access to exclusive handouts, including presentation materials provided by the speaker and additional resources developed by Amorit Education to aid your teams in post-session implementation.

  Why should you attend?

  Disability accommodation requests are rarely simple, and one mishandled conversation can create serious legal and employee-relations problems for an organization. Many employers struggle with knowing when an accommodation request has actually been made, what medical information they can ask for, how much flexibility is required, and how to balance employee needs with the realities of running the business.

  This webinar will help you understand how to manage accommodation issues before they turn into EEOC charges, lawsuits, workplace conflict, or inconsistent decisions across departments. You will learn how to recognize informal or “hidden” accommodation requests, respond when disability issues arise during performance or disciplinary situations, document the interactive process, evaluate remote work or modified-duty requests, and determine when an accommodation may be changed, denied, or ended.

  By attending, you will gain practical guidance from employment law attorney Janette S. Levey, Esq. on how to handle accommodation requests with confidence, consistency, empathy, and legal defensibility.

  Who will benefit?

  This webinar is designed for professionals responsible for handling disability accommodation requests, leave issues, employee medical disclosures, workplace flexibility, performance concerns, and ADA compliance decisions. It will be especially valuable for those who need to manage the interactive process correctly, document decisions properly, and reduce the risk of EEOC claims or employment-related disputes; those include:

  • Human Resources Directors
  • Human Resources Managers
  • Human Resources Generalists
  • ADA Coordinators
  • Leave of Absence Managers
  • Leave Administrators
  • Benefits Managers
  • Employee Relations Managers
  • HR Compliance Managers
  • Workplace Compliance Officers
  • In-House Counsel
  • Employment Law Counsel
  • Business Owners
  • Operations Managers
  • Department Managers
  • Front-Line Supervisors
  • Payroll and Benefits Administrators
  • Risk Management Professionals
  • Disability Management Specialists
  • Workers’ Compensation Coordinators
