HUBZone National Conference: Advancing Opportunity, Advocacy & Growth

The 2026 National HUBZone Conference is not an entry-level government contracting event. This conference is designed for procurement-ready companies, active federal contractors, manufacturers, infrastructure firms, technology companies, large prime contractors, and organizations serious about building strategic teaming relationships and pursuing federal opportunities.

Hosted July 21–22, 2026, at the Westfields Marriott in Chantilly, Virginia, this year’s conference will focus heavily on HUBZone advocacy, U.S. manufacturing, infrastructure, energy, federal modernization, and the power of teaming within today’s evolving government contracting environment.

This is not a conference built around passive attendance. It is designed to bring together decision-makers, industry leaders, federal agencies, primes, manufacturers, suppliers, and small businesses looking to build real partnerships, identify teammates, strengthen supply chains, and pursue opportunities together.

Conference Focus Areas

This year’s event will focus heavily on:

  • HUBZone advocacy and policy discussions
  • Federal acquisition and FAR modernization
  • U.S. manufacturing and industrial base expansion
  • Infrastructure and energy opportunities
  • Workforce development and talent pipelines
  • AI, emerging technologies, and innovation
  • Strategic teaming and partnership development
  • Public-private collaboration
  • Federal and commercial contracting opportunities
  • Building industry ecosystems and collaborative networks

The conference is designed to move beyond traditional panels and create real engagement opportunities between businesses, government agencies, primes, manufacturers, and industry leaders.


What Attendees Can Expect

  • One-on-one matchmaking opportunities
  • Oral capability briefings
  • Networking with federal buyers and large businesses
  • Mini industry day-style sessions
  • Exhibitor demonstrations and technology showcases
  • Advocacy discussions impacting the HUBZone community
  • High-level conversations around manufacturing, infrastructure, and economic revitalization
  • Opportunities to connect with potential teaming partners and subcontractors

The event will also feature dedicated networking and engagement areas designed to encourage collaboration and relationship building throughout the conference.

  • HUBZone-certified businesses
  • Small businesses seeking federal opportunities
