Disabled American Veterans Hosting Entrepreneurship Bootcamp in Kentucky

Posted on 4 years ago

The Disabled American Veterans, DAV, will be hosting a Patriot Bootcamp at their National Headquarters in Erlanger, KY from February 9th to February 11th. 

Up to 50 participants will receive access to mentors, educational programming, and a robust community of experts and peers to help them innovate and build impactful businesses.

Event pitch contest finalists will go on to compete for thousands of dollars in obligation-free funding.

There is no cost for registration or participation beyond personal travel-related expenses and lodging. Those who apply will be contacted regarding future opportunities and programming to support their entrepreneurial journey.

Entrepreneurs, investors, venture capital firms, and business leaders nationwide will converge for the event. 

During its 10 years of operation, the program has helped more than 1,000 entrepreneurs start successful businesses. Alumni have raised over $150 million in capital and created nearly 2,000 jobs.

In addition to founders, DAV is seeking leaders to serve as mentors, presenters, panelists, and event volunteers. 

If you are interested in supporting the event, please contact info@patriotbootcamp.org.
