Herndon, VA (PRWEB) May 6, 2009 -- On Friday, May 8th, Roy Dunbar, CEO of Network Solutions®, the leading provider of Web-based solutions for small business, will be delivering the Morning Address entitled: "Small Businesses and How They Measure Success" at the 2009 DC Chamber of Commerce Business Summit and Expo. Dunbar's discussion will focus on a recently released Small Business Success Index, jointly researched and prepared by Network Solutions and The University of Maryland's Robert H. Smith School of Business. This "report card" provides examples of how small businesses are faring during these uncertain times. The discussion will be followed by a Q&A session.
 The Business Summit and Expo is hosted each year by the D.C. Chamber of Commerce and the Washington Business Journal and focuses on the unique advantages of doing business in the nation's capital. This year's Summit - "After the Storm: Emerging Stronger than Before," will explore what businesses should be doing during this recession to position themselves for economic recovery.
The event includes a keynote speech by Richmond Federal Reserve Bank President Dr. Jeffrey Lacker, as well as opportunities to exchange ideas, explore business partnerships and gain access to an advanced copy of the "State of the Business Report" prior to its release in the Washington Business Journal. The State of the Business Report, created annually by a local economist, highlights the challenges and opportunities faced in the D.C. area.
Additionally, the following educational seminars will be conducted throughout the afternoon:
Accessing Capital: Focusing on available sources of capital for companies, such as federal and local government grants, credit unions, traditional banks, and angel investors.
How Healthy is Your Business: Providing general guidance on how to ensure the overall health of a business from financials to HR practices to operational standards.
Strategic Management: Discussing how to utilize the down economy to prepare for the future, whether it is through employee skill improvement, workforce development, or savings policies that will allow businesses to be best prepared to seize the time when the economy rebounds.
Construction Bonding: Speaking to the growth in the capital area given the amount of stimulus money coming for shovel ready projects that will require companies to secure bonds prior to performance.
