Why Veteran Enterprise Matters – Peter Liston\nIn Part 2 of the series, VBC Co-Founder Peter Liston looks at the long history of veteran entrepreneurship in Australia and how skills developed through service have helped veterans build businesses, create jobs and contribute to the national economy.\nPete explains why veteran enterprise is about more than Defence industry. Veteran-owned businesses operate across almost every sector, and their success can create further employment and opportunities for other veterans. He also discusses the need for veteran businesses to be recognised for their capability, quality and commercial value—not as recipients of a handout.\nThe episode explores VBC’s work to increase demand through government and corporate procurement, verification and the Buy Veteran movement. Pete also shares VBC’s goal of creating $1 billion in recurring revenue opportunities for Australia’s veteran business community by 2029—and challenges veteran business owners to support the movement by buying from one another.\n\n🌐 Find and support veteran-owned businesses:\n👉 https://business.veteranbc.com\n\n🌐 Join the VBC Community:\n👉 https://veteranbc.com/join-our-community\n\n#VBC #VBCPodcast #VeteranBusinessCommunity #VeteranBusiness #VeteranEnterprise #BuyVeteran #VeteranOwned #Procurement #AustralianBusiness #StillServing","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/OaiqbbOhuyBMWpqL2EZvL_qF3U_9DnwkpvSO28x-lzc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS82YjBl/NTljZWJjZTFlZmNm/ZmI1NDg4NWViZjZm/MmIzZC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
