The SEC’s 45th Annual Small Business Forum is coming up on Monday, March 9th from 1:00 to 5:00 pm ET. As Dave shared earlier this month, it’s happening at the SEC’s Headquarters – and there’s also a live webcast if you want to watch virtually. Here’s the registration page – for if you’re attending in person or want to be able to participate virtually.

The agenda includes a session on “Public Company Perspectives: Considerations for IPOs and Small Caps” – at 3:35 pm ET. That’s followed by a 25-minute “open mic” – not for jokes but for an audience opportunity to discuss policy recommendations. Email smallbusiness@sec.gov with your capital-raising policy ideas by noon on March 5th.
