It may have been a knockout in the ring last night, but the UFC championship fight between Alex Pereira and Jirí Prochazka also showcased PGT Solutions’ unwavering support for veteran entrepreneurs.
Dana White and Warrior Rising: A Knockout Collaboration
Months ago, UFC President Dana White made a meaningful donation—auctioning off the chance to announce weights at the Las Vegas event. Proceeds benefited Warrior Rising, a national organization dedicated to empowering veteran entrepreneurs with tools, resources, and mentorship to thrive in business.
PGT Solutions: A Veteran-Owned Business Giving Back
As a service-disabled veteran-owned business, PGT Solutions remains deeply committed to the military community. For me personally, as a former U.S. Army combat trainer and longtime MMA fan, being ringside was a surreal experience—a unique way to connect my passion for combat sports with my dedication to helping fellow veterans succeed.
Veteran Entrepreneurs: Driving Impact and Innovation
Veterans play a pivotal role in our economy and communities:
- 1.9 Million Veteran-Owned Businesses in the U.S. generate $1 Trillion in Annual Revenue.
- These businesses employ nearly 5 Million People, many prioritizing fellow veterans.
Veterans bring unmatched leadership and problem-solving skills from their military service into the business world. Warrior Rising harnesses this potential, helping veterans transition successfully into entrepreneurship.
Why It Matters
Being part of such a high-energy, impactful event reinforced our mission to support veteran entrepreneurs. Every contribution to organizations like Warrior Rising helps empower military veterans and their families to build brighter futures.
