Did you know?

Nearly one out of ten small businesses across the United States is veteran owned — from Main Street store fronts to virtual high-tech startups that advance America, veteran owned small businesses are pillars of our economy and contribute to the foundation of our nation.

Why is this Important?

Because veteran small business owners are resilient, disciplined, and mission-oriented, and commitment to serving our country and communities.

SBA celebrates and recognizes our veteran entrepreneurs during National Veterans Small Business Week by highlighting the programs and services available to our military community.

Please share this information with your favorite service member, veteran,  National Guard member, Reservist, or military and veteran spouse.
