In addition to our longstanding support of the State of Texas Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) and Federal Small Business programs, UTMB proudly supports and promotes VetHUB, a focused initiative dedicated to increasing opportunities for Veteran-owned and Service-Disabled Veteran-owned businesses. Through VetHUB, we strengthen our outreach, engagement, and utilization of veteran suppliers, reinforcing our commitment to those who have served while enhancing supplier diversity across our organization.
UTMB's State of Texas Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) Program and Federal Small Business Program actively encourage the use of minority- and women-owned businesses (HUBs), as well as companies classified as Small Businesses (SB), Small Disadvantaged Businesses (SDB), Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB), HUBZone Small Businesses (HUBZone), Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSB), and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SD-VOSB), in securing products and services needed to fulfill UTMB's education, research, patient care, and mission.
We are proud to support the continued growth and success of State and Federal Small Business Programs, along with the expansion of VetHUB within the Houston/Galveston business community.
