Military Transition Readiness
We believe that service members are natural-born entrepreneurs. Our work aims to help ease the transition from military to civilian life by providing expertise on self-employment after service.
Background on the Problem
The qualities that make great servicemen and women – good decision-making, discipline, confidence, and the willingness to take calculated risks – are the same qualities that make successful entrepreneurs. It comes as no surprise that military veterans are more than 45 percent more likely to attempt to be a business owner.
Studies show that nearly 80 percent of service members leave the military without a job, so we realize the transition from military to civilian life can be difficult and that entrepreneurship for all must include this important group. Our program prepares service members with the skills and support they need to launch their own businesses.
