National Veterans Small Business Week: Vets First - Marching Orders for Procurement #NVSBW26

Event description

Government contracting can be tough to navigate, but visibility is key to securing opportunities. Built specifically for veterans and military spouses, this workshop delivers clear, actionable guidance to help you stand out, complete your certifications, and succeed with the VA.

This session is built for veterans and military spouses who want to break into government contracting with good actionable intel — no scuttlebutt.

• SBA Presenters from Seattle, Portland, Sacramento, and Fresno District Offices
• Tron Shephard, Boots to Business Facilitator with the PNW VBOC, Business Consultant, and former Soldier of the Year. Tron will walk you through SDVOSB, VOSB, and DVBE certifications with straight-talk guidance and tips you can put to use immediately.

Camouflage, cover, and concealment work great in the field — but in small business and contracting, invisibility will cost you. You’ve got to be visible. Join us to learn a proven framework for success with the VA plus insider strategies for standing out, certifying, and securing opportunities.
