Who is SBA

Stirling Business Association is all about community. Our aim is for you to feel a part of something; part of a community who is just like you. A community who understands what it’s like running your own small business. A community where you can share your story and let others know what you do. You could be the answer everyone else is looking for. Stirling Business Association hosts breakfasts, networking sundowners and engages local guest speakers throughout the year for our members to catch up, meet new members, and reciprocate business. We want to support you in keeping your enthusiasm for your idea. No one said being in business was easy!
