From networking and mentorship to business funding and strategic programming, VWEC is designed to empower HER—because when a woman veteran succeeds in business, she strengthens her family, community, and economy.
VWEC was founded to address the economic disparities and unique challenges that women veterans and military spouses face in the business world. While many organizations support general veteran entrepreneurship, few provide a targeted approach tailored specifically to the needs of women who have served.
Since our founding, we have established key initiatives that provide:
✔️ Business mentorship and training from industry professionals
✔️ Direct access to funding and capital growth opportunities
✔️ A national platform for women veteran entrepreneurs to connect, learn, and thrive
What started as a local initiative has grown into a national movement, expanding its reach across multiple states and impacting hundreds of veteran women-led businesses. Our programs continue to evolve, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of business innovation and advocacy for women veterans.
