Veterans Entrepreneurial Jumpstart (VEJ): This free program is a product of Saint Joseph’s University. Delivered in three phases: Phase I (August-September) consists of an online self-study program designed to provide a foundation in business fundamentals and develop a draft business plan; Phase II (October 14-22) is a nine-day on campus residency at St. Joe’s, complete with guest lecturers, panel discussions, one-on-one mentoring, and social outings, culminating in a “shark tank” presentation by all veterans and a graduation dinner and awards ceremony; Phase III (November 2017 to May 2018) is the execution component, and consists of in-kind services ranging from website development to accounting assistance to legal support, as well as the use of a mentor.
