Just
for Vets - Vets Talk
About Running a Business
Veterans are building
and growing their own
companies all around us.
But how did they get
started? Where are
veteran business owners
having success and where
are they struggling?
Are they facing issues
specific to
veteran-owned
businesses, or just
businesses in general?
This workshop
features a panel of
veteran business owners,
who will talk about
growing a business from
a veteran’s perspective
and what it takes to be
successful.
The speakers will be
announced later.
