The National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC) is proud to welcome PuroClean as the Presenting Sponsor of the 2026 NVBDC National Conference: Mission: POSSIBLE, taking place October 4-6, 2026, at MotorCity Casino Hotel & Conference Center in Detroit, MI
As NVBDC prepares to launch NVBDC 3.0 under this year’s theme, Mission: POSSIBLE, PuroClean’s partnership represents far more than sponsorship, it reflects a shared commitment to creating opportunities for veterans and strengthening veteran-owned and service-disabled veteran owned businesses across the country and globally.
A Partnership Built on Service
PuroClean has long demonstrated that supporting veterans is part of its culture. Through its nationally recognized PuroVet program, the company has helped military veterans transition from military service into successful franchise ownership by providing training, mentorship, financial incentives, and ongoing business support.
Beyond entrepreneurship, PuroClean actively partners with veteran organizations nationwide, supports military-focused initiatives, and continues to invest in programs that empower veterans long after their service has ended.
That commitment makes PuroClean an ideal partner as NVBDC enters its next chapter.
Advancing Mission: POSSIBLE
2026 NVBDC National Conference: Mission: POSSIBLE marks the official launch of NVBDC 3.0, an expanded vision focused on helping veteran-owned and service-disabled veteran owned businesses succeed through innovation, education, technology, and stronger corporate engagement.

“PuroClean represents exactly the kind of corporate partner that helps turn our mission into reality,” said Elaine Taylor, Executive Director of NVBDC. “Their investment goes far beyond sponsorship. Through the PuroVet program, they have demonstrated a long-term commitment to creating meaningful opportunities for veterans and military families. As we launch NVBDC 3.0, partners like PuroClean help us expand what’s possible for veteran-owned businesses through collaboration, innovation, and shared purpose.”
Mission: POSSIBLE is more than a theme, it is a commitment to building stronger businesses, stronger partnerships, and stronger opportunities for America’s veteran entrepreneurs.
Leadership That Creates Opportunity
PuroClean’s support reflects a philosophy that veterans possess the leadership, resilience, and discipline needed to succeed in business ownership.
“Veterans bring unmatched leadership, discipline, integrity, and resilience to business ownership,” said Frank Torre, Vice Chairman of PuroClean and Co-CEO of Signal Restoration Services. “Through PuroVet, we’ve seen firsthand how those qualities translate into successful businesses and stronger communities. Supporting NVBDC as the Presenting Sponsor of this year’s conference reflects our belief that when veterans are given the right opportunities and surrounded by the right partners, there is no limit to what they can accomplish. That’s what Mission: POSSIBLE means to us.”
Stronger Together
For NVBDC, partnerships with companies like PuroClean help create real opportunities for certified veteran-owned businesses by connecting them with organizations that understand the value veterans bring to the marketplace.
“PuroClean has consistently demonstrated that supporting veterans is part of its culture, not simply a corporate initiative. Their leadership, investment, and commitment to veteran entrepreneurship embody the spirit of Mission: POSSIBLE, and we are honored to welcome them as our Presenting Sponsor.” said Jim Cowper, Chair of the NVBDC Board of Directors.
