PORTSMOUTH, Va. (WAVY) – We’re saluting our veterans all this week on HRS, and there’s one place veterans and their families can go to learn how to start, grow and succeed at owning their own business. The ODU Veterans Business Outreach Center offers free classes, counseling, resources and networking.

Be sure to Join ODU VBOC at The HIVE to Celebrate National Veterans Small Business Week Celebration. The free event is Friday, Nov. 15, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 140 Independence Blvd. in Virginia Beach.
