SBA Mentor-Protégé Program
Also called: SBA Mentor-Protege Program, Mentor-Protégé program, Mentor Protege Program, MPP, All Small Mentor-Protégé, 8(a) Mentor-Protégé
A US Small Business Administration program in which a small business (the protégé) learns from an experienced government contractor (the mentor) and can bid with it as a joint venture on contracts set aside for small businesses. It is not a matchmaking service: the protégé applies with a mentor already identified, and SBA must approve the pair.
For example: A small Tulsa software firm partners with a large defense contractor through the Mentor-Protégé Program to bid together on an Air Force contract.
