National Invest in Veterans Week® Celebrates Passage of Service-Disabled Veteran Opportunities in Small Business Act
As part of this year’s National Invest in Veterans Week® (NIVW) celebrations, Congressman Brian Mast, a long-time advocate for veterans, has proudly announced the unanimous passage of the Service-Disabled Veteran Opportunities in Small Business Act in the U.S. House of Representatives. This landmark legislation, strongly supported by NIVW, aims to provide essential federal guidance for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, driving growth and fostering new opportunities for veteran entrepreneurs.
National Invest in Veterans Week Celebrated Across the U.S.
National Invest in Veterans Week® (March 1-7) is an annual celebration dedicated to honoring the economic contributions of military veterans who have transitioned from service to entrepreneurship. The week provides an opportunity for the public to show their support for veteran-owned businesses by recognizing the leadership, innovation, and resilience veterans bring to the business community.
A video produced by Pfc. Jared Simmons of the 19th Public Affairs Detachment has been released, showcasing the importance of National Invest in Veterans Week and encouraging everyone to participate in this important observance. The video highlights the entrepreneurial spirit of veterans who continue to serve their communities through successful business ventures.
