DVBE & SDVOSB Overview
The Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) program was created to honor the service and sacrifices of California’s disabled veterans in a meaningful and impactful way. In partnership with federal initiatives, the program provides unique opportunities and competitive advantages to DVBEs and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs). Additionally, businesses that strategically partner with a certified DVBE or SDVOSB can also benefit from a wide range of incentives, fostering mutually rewarding collaborations.
Beyond meeting compliance standards, engaging with the DVBE or SDVOSB program also contributes to strengthening local communities and empowering veterans to thrive in the business sector. By supporting veteran-owned enterprises, companies play a vital role in creating job opportunities, fostering economic growth, and recognizing the invaluable skills and leadership that veterans bring to the table. This collective effort not only drives business success but also reinforces a culture of gratitude and respect for those who have served our country.
Partnering with Anchorpoint to fulfill your DVBE or SDVOSB requirements means working with a company built on the principles and values of a proud United States Navy Veteran. With a deep-rooted commitment to excellence and a legacy of selfless service to our nation, Anchorpoint delivers unwavering dedication to your success.
