Warrior Rising is an organization founded in 2015 by veterans for veterans, offering free online courses to provide business support to veterans. Their goal is to help create sustainable businesses and jobs by providing a united front using both the internet and in-person networking events.

Their latest initiative, a one-month free online service, the Disabled Veteran Entrepreneur (SDVET) program, will launch on June 13, 2024. The U.S. Small Business Administration supports the program, which includes a variety of resources such as Warrior Academy, Warrior University, a dedicated accelerator program, and virtual coaching sessions.
