Veteran Media

The transition seeks to explore Veteran Entrepreneurs’ journey from the military to entrepreneurship, providing lessons learned, their failures, their successes, and anything else that can be plucked out along the way.

Not only will this provide insight for those currently serving, but it will also be incredibly valuable for anyone who is interested in entrepreneurship.
