There will also be an executives roundtable where leading experts from the SBA lending world will provide an in-depth conversation about their business challenges, their approaches to resolving these challenges and the results they have achieved.

Additionally, experts will discuss the SBA's 504 green loan policy and reveal how your clients can go green to get more green and the secret to financing multiple 504 loan projects. The latest on getting franchise deals approved and which ones to avoid will also be discussed.
