At the Maryland Veterans Chamber of Commerce (MDVCC), we are dedicated to empowering and supporting veteran-owned businesses throughout the state. Organized for veterans, by veterans, our mission is to promote entrepreneurial efforts, provide education, and increase economic value for veteran-led businesses. As our members have served our country in uniform, they are now serving our economy—driving innovation, creating jobs, and strengthening our communities.
Our Mission
Our goal is simple but powerful: to support and encourage businesses owned by military veterans in Maryland. We believe that veterans bring unmatched leadership, resilience, and problem-solving skills to the business world. By fostering a strong network of veteran entrepreneurs, we help our members succeed in their ventures while contributing to the overall economic growth of our state. But our vision extends far beyond just business success.
MDVCC is committed to building an extensive support network for veterans and their families, offering resources that span well beyond entrepreneurship. We aim to create an all-encompassing information hub where veterans can easily access essential services, guidance, and opportunities. Whether it’s business mentorship, continued education, mental health support, or employment assistance, we are working to ensure that every veteran has the tools they need to thrive in civilian life.
What We Do
We are committed to opening doors to business opportunities and fostering strong social connections. Through networking events, educational programs, and advocacy efforts, we provide veterans with the tools and resources they need to thrive in the competitive business landscape. Whether you’re launching a startup, scaling an existing business, or seeking guidance on government contracting, we are here to support you every step of the way.
Our hope is to expand our reach to provide veterans and their families with access to critical services. Our long-term goal is to integrate vital resources such as:
Seamless Reintegration into Society – Helping veterans transition smoothly from military to civilian life.
Education and Skill Development – Providing access to higher education, trade programs, and professional certifications.
Mental Health and Wellness Support – Offering guidance, resources, and connections to mental health professionals.
Employment and Career Assistance – Partnering with companies to create job opportunities tailored to veterans' skills and experiences.
Community Engagement – Encouraging camaraderie, peer support, and networking to strengthen veteran connections.
By establishing this information hub, we strive to become the go-to resource for veterans and their families, ensuring they have access to everything they need to succeed.
With a deep understanding of the unique strengths and needs of those who have served, our board leads with purpose and compassion. We work tirelessly to create lasting, positive impacts for veterans and their families, ensuring that their entrepreneurial dreams become a reality. Our leadership is dedicated to advocating for veteran business owners, providing access to vital resources, and building a community where veterans can support one another.
