Program. This data collection is an online form to be completed by
small business and partner organization members of RICs funded through
SBA. The form enables SBA to track membership of RICs.
Through the RIC Program, the SBA invests regional clusters--
geographic concentrations of interconnected companies, specialized
suppliers, academic institutions, service providers, and associated
organizations with a specific industry focus--throughout the United
States that span a variety of industries, ranging from energy and
manufacturing to advanced defense technologies. The standardized
membership information will enable SBA to more rigorously track small
