First Thursdays with the SBA: SDVOSB/VOSB
Grab your lunch and join us the first Thursday of each month to learn more about SBA programs and network with other small business owners.
Topic: Service Disable Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB)
The federal government aims to award at least 3% of all federal contracting dollars to Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) each year. Joining the SDVOSB program makes your business eligible to compete for the program’s set-aside contracts. You can still compete for contract awards under other socio-economic programs you qualify for.
Key Takeaways:
- What is a SDVOSB?
- Who is eligible for the program?
- What to expect with the recent changes to the program?
