Sponsors & Volunteers
Sponsorships provide support for our Veterans and military families by providing opportunities to:
-
transition from a military mindset to an entrepreneurial mindset
-
develop viable business ideas into a sustainable business
-
create jobs for other Veterans in Veteran-owned businesses
Sponsorships demonstrate a company's or individual's commitment to our Veterans and military families who have sacrificed so much in service to our country.
Sponsor a Veteran
Support a Veteran through a learning program that leads to the successful development of a viable, sustainable business. Your generosity could make the difference for one Veteran or military family seeking financial independence through business development.
Sponsor a Class
Support a class of Veterans, military spouses and dependents through mindset exploration and business development training. Your sponsorship directly contributes to new businesses and new jobs in Tampa and around Florida.

Mentors & SMEs
Subject matter experts (SMEs) provide workshops teaching practical business skills all business owners need to run a business. Mentors work one-on-one with a Vetpreneur or military spouse or dependent to ensure they receive appropriate guidance during the development and execution of their business.
Speakers & Facilitators
Speakers and facilitators serve as classroom resources during specific course instruction periods. Speakers are invited to share their expertise and experience on relevant and applicable topics in conjunction with the curriculum. Facilitators may lead or assist in teaching courses or programs offered as stand-alone workshops or on-going classroom learning.
