November 2023: Certification Overview for Veteran-Owned Businesses

View Presentation Slides Here

As a veteran-owned business you may qualify for certifications that give you a leg up in the government marketplace and increase your chances of winning more contracts!

Getting certified allows your veteran-owned business to compete for special “set-aside” contracts with limited competition. These certifications include Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) with the State of California, and Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) with the U.S. federal government.
