Veterans Florida Entrepreneurship Program at FGCU – Pitch Event 2026

Veteran Entrepreneur Pitch Event at FGCU

Watch military veterans participating in the Veterans Florida Entrepreneurship Program at Florida Gulf Coast University pitch their early-stage businesses to a panel of judges for the chance to secure non-equity seed funding.

Most ventures are pre-revenue and actively refining their business models, customer discovery, and growth strategies.

Attendees will have the opportunity to:

• Watch veteran founders pitch their businesses
• Learn about emerging veteran-owned ventures
• Support Florida’s veteran entrepreneurship ecosystem

All participants are military veterans supported through the Veterans Florida Grant, which provides education, mentorship, and resources to help veterans successfully transition into entrepreneurship.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
