SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn - Built to Last with Ruby Tuck
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, Ruby Tuck founded Program Management & Technology Services\, Inc. (PMTS) in Montgomery\, Alabama. Over the next decade\, she built it into a competitive woman-owned 8(a) business providing IT and medical staffing — winning contracts across nine states\, growing her team by 70%\, and significantly expanding office space along the way. In 2024\, Ruby Tuck and PMTS were named Alabama Woman-Owned Small Business of the Year by the U.S. Small Business Administration. \nThat recognition didn’t happen by accident. It happened because of a series of deliberate decisions: how to use COVID-19 relief to maintain stability rather than retreat\, how to leverage the SBA T.H.R.I.V.E. program to build a real strategic growth plan\, and how to use SBA certifications as a competitive tool rather than just a credential. \nBuilt to Scale is SBOSS’s celebration of that journey — and a practical\, honest conversation about what it actually looks like to scale a small business in Montgomery. \nThe format is two parts: a 20-minute featured conversation with Ruby Tuck on what it means to Build to Scale — the decisions\, the pivots\, the programs\, and the mindset — followed by a fireside chat with the Small Business Administration on the specific tools\, certifications\, and resources available to businesses ready to move to the next level. \nThis is not a motivational talk. It is a case study with the person who lived it\, and a direct line to the federal resources that helped make it possible. Lunch is provided. The format is conversational. Space is limited. \nIf you are past startup and ready to grow with intention — this session was built for you. \n🏅 SBOSS Score: Stamp-eligible event. Check in within the first 20 minutes of the 11:00 AM start (by 11:20 AM)\, attend the full two hours\, and complete the post-event survey to earn your credit. \n Register Now
