About Boots to Business Reboot
Boots to Business Reboot is an entrepreneurial education and training program offered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). The course provides an overview of entrepreneurship and applicable business ownership fundamentals. Veterans of all eras, Active Duty Service members (including National Guard and Reserve) and spouses
are eligible to participate.
During Reboot, participants are introduced to the skills, knowledge, and resources they need to launch a business, including steps for developing business concepts, how to develop a business plan, and information on SBA resources available to help. The program is facilitated by subject matter experts from the SBA and their extensive network of skilled business advisors.

Supporting Veterans is Our Priority.
As the Veterans Business Outreach Center, we want to promote New Mexico’s veteran-owned businesses. We have built a directory of veteran-owned businesses across the state. These business listings include all of the military branches — the Army, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. This directory is still in development. Join the registry by completing this form.
Veterans: Get Your Business Started!
New Mexico veterans, the Veterans Business Outreach Center can help you get your small business started and growing. Our team exists to help you successfully transition from military service to business ownership. We want every veteran in our state to be aware of the training and resources available to create or expand veteran-owned businesses. Our services are for military spouses, too!

Veterans Business Outreach Centers can be found across the United States. Each one helps veterans in their communities start and grown their own businesses. The national website has online courses, resources, and helpful information, too. |
The VBOC is just one of the services and resources available to local veterans. Sign up for the DVS Network to receive a monthly newsletter and updates on outreach clinics, events, programs for veterans, and more.
The U.S. Small Business Administration is a cooperative funder of our work as a VBOC. You’ll find lots of great business resources through SBA, too.
