About this Talk

Veteran entrepreneurship is a critical cause "often overlooked or underfunded by mainstream philanthropy" and corporate sponsors. In fact, there are over 42,000 Veterans Services Organizations (VSOs), corporations, and foundations all focused on helping veterans with their incapacities (including mental illnesses, physical disabilities, homelessness, food insecurities, underemployment, etc.). But, veterans are more than their incapacities and veterans deserve to live the American dream of small business ownership. Its time to CHANGE THE NARRATIVE. https://youtu.be/KGxODCNp9XQ Its time to highlight the value of veteran-owned businesses that exponentially impact the entire military connected ecosystem: 1. Veterans hire veterans. 2. Veterans give back to veteran causes. 3. Veterans build capacity.
