The SBAM Leadership Council is a special, secret group formed over 10 years ago by your very own peers. This is a statewide network of over 200 second-stage small business owners from all across the state, and they are in the prime of their careers. This group of owners are genuinely interested in connecting with peers and growing their network, not so much selling their products and services. But, the selling does happen once relationships are formed, which makes this group that much more powerful!

SBAM brings the Leadership Council together three times a year for in-person events that include education and peer-to-peer connection in a safe space.

The events are:

• DATE CHANGE: March 5, 2025 (Winter Advocacy Day at Grewal Hall, downtown Lansing) with PAC Fundraiser to follow
• June 17, 2025 Event (Full Day Event at Eagle Eye Golf & Banquet Center, Lansing)
• October 22-24, 2025 (Fall Summit, usually 2 nights away)
