NEWS | NSBA attends NVBDC Veterans Event in Louisville

NSBA loves our corporate partner, NVBDC, and our work together supporting Veterans in small business.


Last week, NSBA travelled to Louisville, Ky., for the 2023 NVBDC Veterans Business Matchmaking Conference.


NSBA staff Ian Elsenbach and Pat Post, with Leadership Council member Jeff Anderson of ATEK Distribution.

There, NSBA joined the largest gathering of Certified Service Disabled and Veteran-Owned Businesses in the country to learn more about the challenges facing veterans in small business, including a keynote address from Undersecretary of Commerce Donald Cravins, Jr.


Attendees and NSBA were also lucky enough to receive a special tour of the Jim Beam bourbon distillery, followed by valuable networking time with business leaders from across the U.S.


A special thank you to all the NSBA and NSBA Veterans’ Network members who came by our booth.


It was great to see you, and we were proud to support our partner NVBDC in helping connect veteran-owned businesses with meaningful opportunities.
