In 2001, AB 1084 established the definition of a microbusiness as a subset category of a small business.  It's the state's intent that microbusinesses are afforded the same entitlements and business participation benefits as a small business.

A microbusiness is:

• A small business that, together with affiliates, has an average annual gross receipts of three million five hundred thousand dollars ($3,500,000) or less over the previous three years, or
• Is a small business manufacturer with 25 or fewer employees.
