Sean Fitzpatrick, Eric Easterbrook, and Bruce Izard took part in VETCON on Nov. 28-29 in Albany, New York. 

VETCON is the premier annual conference dedicated to the education and professional growth of veterans through networking with entrepreneurs, state agencies, and industry leaders. Each year, VETCON brings together a growing number of state agencies, owners of veteran-friendly businesses interested in growing their state government portfolios, veterans in transition, and hundreds of visitors over the course of two days. 

This conference encompasses a large gathering of state agencies and public authorities with the mission of teaching Veterans how to get certified and do business with New York State government.

There were over 500 current and potential Veteran-owned businesses that attended.  This was a great opportunity for our NFTA team members to speak to veteran-friendly business owners and other individuals on appropriate NYS certification processes and benefits.
