The last evening of our Veterans Entrepreneurship Program, we recognized the delegates and congratulated them on their completion of the program. Thank you to all of the delegates, speakers, judges, and everyone who helped make this program so special.

Every year at our Veterans Entrepreneurship Program, delegates spend the week practicing their elevator pitch and building a poster to compete in a Pitch and Poster Contest. They compete in two tracks, Ventures and Concepts. Here's how it went!

Congratulations to the 2025 VEP Pitch and Poster Winners:

Concept Track:
1st Place: Kevin Farrell

Venture Track:
