The National Veterans Small Business Engagement (NVSBE) is the Department of Veterans Affairs’ flagship event for Veteran and other small businesses pursuing Federal contracting opportunities. NVSBE delivers something rare: a hybrid engagement that begins virtually in September with business opportunity sessions. It culminates in a December finale of direct, face-to-face engagement, including one-on-one sessions, targeted networking, and key leader discussions with procurement decision makers from VA, other Federal agencies, and industry partners, all in one place. This structure means attendees come prepared and ready to engage, maximizing the value of attending NVSBE. Attendees leave with a single outcome in reach: positioning to compete for and win Federal contracts.
