The National Veteran-Owned Business Association (NaVOBA) invites the Veteran-owned business community to attend the Veteran Institute for Procurement (VIP) Corporate Training and the Joint Forces Forum (JFF), taking place May 5–7, 2026, in Potomac, Md.
VIP Corporate Training prepares Veteran-owned businesses to better understand corporate expectations, sourcing practices and procurement realities. Immediately following the training, the Joint Forces Forum (JFF) provides the opportunity to apply those insights through direct engagement with corporate allies in focused, high-value conversations.
Together, this integrated experience ensures participants leave with practical strategies, meaningful connections, and clear next steps for business growth.
And the best part? This event is at no-cost to the Veteran business owner. NaVOBA corporate allies have generously covered the cost for Veteran-business owners to attend the VIP Corporate class & the JFF conference. Lodging and meals are included, however, VIP Corporate students must cover their travel costs.
Requirements to apply:
Must be a for-profit Veteran-owned business.
Must be in business for at least 3 years.
Must have annual revenue of $3,000,000 or more.
VIP Corporate Training includes access to JFF.
Interested in attending the JFF only?
