National Invest in Veterans Week®: A Transformative Alternative to NVSBW
As the SBA marks its 11th annual National Veterans Small Business Week (NVSBW) from November 11-15, 2024, National Invest in Veterans Week® (NIVW) is redefining the scope and impact of veteran entrepreneurship. While NVSBW celebrates the contributions of veteran-owned businesses, NIVW offers a comprehensive, year-round framework designed to address systemic challenges, foster innovation, and expand opportunities for veterans globally.
