The Miller School serves as a sponsor of the national conference and one of SBI’s journals, the Journal of Small Business Strategy (JSBS). Dr. Dennis Barber III serves as the Editor-in-Chief for JSBS. Dr. Barber has volunteered for five consecutive years on the SBI Board and was elected as President in Denver. He will serve in this role until the 2024 conference in Orlando, FL.
