National Invest In Veterans Week Wins Multiple Awards in 2021

A team of military veterans recently racked up a string of impressive wins for their revolutionary social impact organization. Coined National Invest In Veterans Week, the organization's mission is to empower the public to invest in the veteran population through veteran-owned business sustainment, educational development, and mental health empowerment. Celebrated during the first week of March, National Invest In Veterans Week's vision has made its way to South Carolina's legislatures. Concurrent Resolution 3825 was passed in February to honor veteran business owners during the week-long celebration statewide.

National Invest In Veterans Week Launches The American Society of Veteran Business Owners

Earlier this year, National Invest In Veterans Week, a Tech From Vets brand, launched the American Society of Veteran Business Owners to help veteran entrepreneurs nationwide. Created to help veteran entrepreneurs build a community of like-minded warriors that served our nation with distinction, the society is aimed at connecting veterans at every stage of business development. "With so many veterans exiting the military interested in starting their businesses, the need to create an organization catered to serving their needs is an essential element to National Invest In Veterans Week," stated ASVBO co-founder Jeff Shuford. A 2018 study by the Small Business Administration (SBA) discovered numerous issues facing aspiring veteran business owners, and the American Society of Veteran Business Owners intends to highlight those issues.
