Veteran Business Facts

According to the SBA, veterans are roughly 45% more likely to form their own business compared to people who haven’t served any time in the military.

78% of veteran-owned small business owners are retiring from the military with 20 years of service – that’s a lot of experience to bring to any organization.

Not only are veterans diving into the entrepreneurial game, but they are also sticking around. Last year, the SBA reported that military veterans owned as many as 2.4 million businesses. That means on average, 1 out of every 10 business in the U.S is owned by a veteran.

According to the SBA, 13.2% of all companies in the finance and insurance sector were veteran-owned firms.

Out of the more than 20 million veteran owners in the U.S., an estimated 8.3% have a service-related disability.

SBA data showed that veteran-owned SMBs generated $120 billion in payroll last year and employed almost 6 million people.

Testimonials

The VEA provides crucial guidance on how to start and grow your business. Without their assistance, I would have missed out on SBA programs and networking opportunities. Thank you VEA!

The VEA has provided me with tools, contacts, and opportunities throughout my startup phase. I wouldn't be where I am today without the guidance of the Veteran Entrepreneur Alliance.

What an Awesome Organization. I went to their second summit and for any veteran starting, or running a business, this is invaluable. The information, guest speakers and contacts were really great!
