Abstract
Pursuant to the Federal Advisory Committee Act, the National Women's Business Council (NWBC) announces its first public meeting of Fiscal Year 2022. The 1988 Women's Business Ownership Act established NWBC to serve as an independent source of advice and policy recommendations to the President, Congress, and the Administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) on issues of importance to women entrepreneurs. This meeting will allow the Council to recap its activity and engagement over the course of Fiscal Year 2021. Each of the Council's three subcommittees (Access to Capital & Opportunity, Women in STEM and Rural Women's Entrepreneurship) will present their policy recommendations and current projects to the full body for deliberation. The public will have the opportunity to provide feedback.
