Stronger Businesses.
A Stronger Community.
We are building a bridge between Armenian entrepreneurs, businesses and community leaders and the institutions, capital, expertise and opportunities that power the Santa Clarita Valley.
More than networking. A bridge to opportunity.
SCV Armenian Business Alliance (SABA) is an Armenian-led, inclusive business organization created to strengthen businesses and deepen connections throughout the Santa Clarita Valley and surrounding communities.
Our purpose is not simply to put people in the same room. We want to connect entrepreneurs and established businesses to banking, capital, professional services, commercial opportunities, education, mentorship, local institutions and the people who can help turn an idea into a sustainable business.
We are proudly Armenian and open to everyone who shares the goal of strengthening business, opportunity and community.
Connect → Launch → Grow → Give Back.
Whether you are opening your first business, expanding an established company, looking for capital, searching for professional guidance, or seeking a meaningful way to support the Armenian business community, SABA is designed to help connect the dots.
A business ecosystem built around action.
Our goal is to make SABA a practical gateway into the Santa Clarita business ecosystem, while celebrating Armenian entrepreneurship, culture and community contribution.

SABA Member Opportunity Fund
A designated portion of paid membership revenue is intended to support the SABA Member Opportunity Fund, helping create future grants, micro-grants and approved business-assistance opportunities for eligible members pursuing entrepreneurship, launching a business, expanding an existing company or facing a qualifying business need.
Important: Membership does not guarantee a grant or financial award. Funding is subject to available funds, eligibility requirements, application procedures, review and approval. SABA may adjust allocations and programs through its approved budget and policies. Membership dues do not include every event, sponsorship, advertising opportunity or special program. Optional event and sponsorship fees may vary based on venue, audience, event style, theme, benefits selected and the member's desired level of participation.
Good ideas deserve a chance to grow.
The SABA Member Opportunity Fund is designed to turn community participation into opportunity. A designated portion of membership revenue, together with eligible sponsorships, donations and partner support, can help fund future grants, micro-grants and approved business assistance for qualified members.
From an idea to an operating business.
Future SABA grants and awards may support qualified startup costs, equipment, expansion, marketing, technology or other approved business needs. Eligibility, award amounts and application rules will be published when funding is available.
Membership does not guarantee grants, loans, investments, approvals or funding. Assistance is subject to available funds, published eligibility criteria, application review and applicable program rules. Sponsors and partners may be recognized for supporting programs, but financial-award decisions should be made under SABA's approved review process.
Discover. Refer. Support local.
