Description/Abstract
This poster presents findings from the National Survey of Military-Affiliated Entrepreneurs (NSMAE), the largest ongoing study of veteran and military spouse entrepreneurs in the U.S. It explores how military experience shapes entrepreneurial pathways, and identifies key challenges such as access to capital, resource navigation, and post-service transition. The data informs research, policy, and program development to strengthen support for military-connected small business owners.
