Global mobility leader supports veteran-owned businesses and corporate supplier connections at Mission: POSSIBLE in Detroit, October 4–6
The National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC) is proud to announce that Stellantis will serve as the Exhibit Hall Sponsor for the 2026 NVBDC National Conference, taking place October 4–6 at MotorCity Casino Hotel in Detroit, Michigan.
This year’s conference, themed Mission: POSSIBLE, will bring together certified veteran-owned businesses, corporate supplier diversity professionals, procurement leaders, and resource partners for three days of meaningful connections, learning, and opportunity.
The Exhibit Hall is one of the most active and valuable spaces at the NVBDC National Conference. It is where veteran-owned businesses can introduce their capabilities, meet directly with corporate representatives, develop relationships with fellow suppliers, and begin the conversations that can lead to future business.
Stellantis’ sponsorship helps make those connections possible.
“Stellantis’ commitment as our Exhibit Hall Sponsor helps create the environment where meaningful connections happen,” said Elaine M. Taylor, Executive Director of NVBDC. “The Exhibit Hall is where veteran-owned businesses can showcase their capabilities, engage directly with corporate leaders, and begin conversations that can lead to real opportunities and lasting partnerships.”
As a global mobility company, Stellantis understands the importance of innovation, quality, operational excellence, and strong supplier relationships. Its support of the NVBDC National Conference reflects the value of bringing capable veteran-owned businesses into conversations with corporations seeking qualified, competitive suppliers.
For certified Service-Disabled and Veteran-Owned Businesses, the Exhibit Hall offers more than visibility. It provides an opportunity to tell their story, articulate their value, and make the personal connections that move a business relationship forward.
Attendees are encouraged to come prepared with a clear elevator pitch, a strong capability statement, and a willingness to start the conversation. Whether a business is looking to build corporate relationships, identify new partnership opportunities, or better understand the expectations of major buyers, the Exhibit Hall is an important place to begin.
The 2026 NVBDC National Conference will also feature one-on-one matchmaking, corporate networking, educational breakout sessions, procurement insights, and the Veteran Marketplace.
Join us in Detroit and experience the connections, conversations, and opportunities that make the mission possible.
