The Veterans Who Build Show

Adam Stark

Booking Overview

This is an interview show focused on veterans’ transitions into construction, real estate, entrepreneurship, and leadership, typically featuring veteran founders, executives, and construction professionals as external guests. PR agencies could credibly pitch veteran business owners, real estate developers, construction executives, military-to-civilian leadership experts, and trade or workforce advocates; booking difficulty is medium because guests need both military experience and relevant built-environment or business credentials.
