    Military Veterans are Important to Colorado’s Economy

    During November, we celebrate National Veterans Small Business Week, which runs Nov. 11-13. Throughout the month, we recognize those veterans, service members and military spouses who work to realize their goal of small business ownership.

    Historically, veterans are more likely to start a small business than non-veterans. Veterans own nearly 10% of all American businesses. Colorado is home to more than 410,000 veterans, with more than 50,000 of them making the jump to small-business ownership.
