THE LOCAL BUZZ
Fueled by:

|
While San Diego may have its own tech veterans of the early digital age, our strong military-based local economy supports a significant amount of programs to help transitioning military service people find their inner entrepreneur. The Navy, for example, hosts its own at sea pitch competition,
the Athena Project
, while UCSD has created a program at Camp Pendleton for the Marines,
Startup Battlefield 101
, and the UCSD Rady School of Management has the
Veteran Ventures
program. The EDC and San Diego Military Advisory Council (SDMAC) have also created a program to assist
Defense Innovation
-focused startups.
Are you a military veteran founder? Drop us a line at
techos@freshbrewedtech.com
and tell us what you are up to, and thank you for your service!
Cheers,
