The Governor's Council on Small Business, formed by Executive Order 2004-12, consists of 25 members, each of whom is appointed by the Governor, and serves without compensation at the pleasure of the Governor.

	Creating a common licensing portal that serves as a liaison between businesses and licensing agencies
	Increasing the number of women and minority business owners
	Improving the network and supply chain between Arizona businesses
