In 1982, the National Business Association
(NBA), a non-profit organization for the Self-Employed, Small Business Owners,
Entrepreneurs and professionals, was founded. The NBA continuously strives to
provide its members with vital support programs, cost and time saving products
and services in the areas of Business, Lifestyle, Education, and Health.
In
addition to the various support programs available to NBA members, the NBA also
maintains close working relationships with organizations throughout the nation
that assist the Self- Employed and Small Business Community. The NBA's affiliation
with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) in Washington, D.C., as well
as its regional and district offices nationwide is instrumental in the association's
success. The NBA is highly supportive of the SBA's major programs, and the Service
Corps of Retired Executives (SCORE) chapters. The association assists SCORE offices
in various ways, as well as co-sponsoring forums and seminars to provide a means
of education and training to the Self-Employed, Small Business Owners and Entrepreneurs
everywhere. The NBA participates in numerous national and local small business
events such as:
- the White House Conference on Small Business
- the SBA's Small Business Week
- Women Owned Business Conferences

The Story of the"Keystone"
The keystone, an architectural wonder designed by the Romans,
is the one critical or "key" stone in an arch that holds the two sides
together. Without the support of the keystone, the arch could not remain standing.
The NBA chose the arch with the keystone to represent the NBA's role as the critical
or "key" element linking small businesses with support programs, resources,
and benefits to ensure personal and professional success. The NBA is striving
to be successful in its mission to bring together the small business community
and the self-employed in the free enterprise system.
