Winners and finalists will be honored in a special San Diego Business Journal supplement.
To be nominated, the individual must be a veteran or military spouse of the U.S. military — Navy, Marines, Army, Coast Guard or Air Force, or a military spouse. Self-nominations are accepted.
An independent panel of judges will select winners from among these categories:
• Veteran-owned businesses
• Veteran business leaders in the private sector
• Businesses that advocate for veterans
• Other individuals, such as emerging business leaders,
