If you’re a veteran entrepreneur in Michigan, there’s one certification that opens the door to major corporate and government opportunities: the Service-Disabled and Veteran-Owned Business (SD/VOB) Certification powered by the National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC).
Through its partnership with NVBDC, the Small Business Association of Michigan (SBAM) has solidified its commitment to helping veteran-owned businesses succeed. SBAM proudly recognizes NVBDC as the nationally accepted gold standard for verifying veteran business ownership and it’s the certification Michigan Veteran businesses trust to gain access to a $122 billion corporate procurement marketplace.
