Published on November 11, 2025

The U.S. Small Business Administration announced the 12th annual National Veterans Small Business Week will take place November 3‑7, 2025, honoring the roughly 1.6 million veteran‑owned small businesses across the United States. With a theme of “Honoring Veteran‑Owned, American Made,” the week will feature events on manufacturing, capital access, government contracting and veteran‑entrepreneur support.

Administrator Kelly Loeffler emphasised that veteran‑entrepreneurs are vital job creators and innovation drivers in sectors tied to national defence and domestic supply chains. The announcement also signals increased visibility and institutional support for veteran business ownership by the public sector.

For veteran‑business leaders and ecosystems, the early declaration of NVSBW provides a planning window: time to align events, network opportunities and internal strategy so that veteran‑business owners can engage meaningfully with resource partners and procurement channels.
