About CVE

Our mission in CVE is to improve the business climate for veterans, to minimize access barriers and to inform the public about the benefits of working with veteran-owned small businesses.

What We Do

We create breakthrough opportunities for veteran-owned small businesses by collaborating with like-minded individuals and organizations who passionately believe that Veterans in Business are Still Serving America!

We trust our partner organizations to provide local support to veterans because we understand that small business is, at least initially, local business and face-to-face meetings are immanently better when considering business ownership, seeking financing or making marketing calls.

We support acquisition teams through procurement coaching, free market research, awareness briefings and awards for noteworthy achievements.

With our strategic partners, we continually seek to stretch performance and improve benefits for veterans in business.
