Military Appreciation Night

Honoring Veteran-Owned Businesses

As you know, our area is home to thousands of military Veterans, their families, and their businesses. That's something special because Veterans stimulate economic growth in our local communities.

America's Veterans own and operate almost one-tenth of small businesses in the US, and your businesses generate more than $1.4 trillion every year, employing nearly 6 million workers.

We want to say THANK YOU!

To show our gratitude to the service men and women who continue to give to our country, we've partnered with community leaders like AFCEA and MAC to provide an educational networking opportunity that will help secure your business.

Veteran-owned business leaders are invited to spend a day gaining educational content around cybersecurity for your business, as well as receive the opportunity to network, enjoy food, drinks, and entertainment on us! It all happens on Friday, August 19, 2022 - Your exclusive VIP Access starts at 3:30 pm.

Together with AFCEA and MAC, we have dedicated resources to bring you exclusive access to business insight and networking opportunities along with other veteran-owned businesses within the SOMD Region.

To RSVP, please fill out the form located on this page or contact John Flores, Business Development Manager for eTrepid, at jflores@etrepid.com.

We salute our Veteran Owned Businesses and recognize the importance the military has in our community.

See how eTrepid and area sponsors are teaming up to honor and grow your veteran-owned businesses.

We can't wait to see you there!
