Hearing agenda and witness details

The House Committee on Small Business said it will hold a hearing titled "From Startup to Scale: The Role of the SBA Office of Investment and Innovation in Powering America’s Small Businesses" on Thursday, June 25 at 10:00 AM ET in Room 2360 of the Rayburn House Office Building.

Implications for small business policy

The hearing places focus on a part of the SBA tied to financing and innovation support for small businesses moving from startup stage to broader scale. That makes the session relevant to entrepreneurs, investors and policymakers tracking how federal programs are used to expand access to capital and growth support.

By centering on the office's role in powering small businesses, the committee is also signaling continued oversight of SBA operations and leadership priorities. The discussion may help shape how lawmakers assess the agency's support framework for high-growth small firms.
