We’re proud to announce that Isaac Belden, the Founding Executive Director of the Veteran Entrepreneur Alliance, has been named one of Idaho Business Review’s 2025 CEOs of Influence! This honor isn’t just about leadership—it’s about service, community, and action.
Isaac’s journey from the military to entrepreneurship wasn’t a straight line. Like many veterans, he faced the chaotic, often overwhelming transition into his post military life. It was this struggle that eventually inspired him to create the VEA. A community focused on supporting the men and women who choose this path.
Under his leadership, the Veteran Entrepreneur Alliance (VEA) has become a force in Idaho, providing veteran business owners and their families with resources, connections, and a real support system. It’s not just about learning and networking—it’s about building legacies, strengthening communities, and proving that veterans don’t just survive in business—they thrive.
"I have had the privilege of knowing Isaac for several years, and his recognition as a CEO of
Influence is well deserved. He is a cornerstone of the Idaho veteran entrepreneur community. For many veterans, starting a business can be overwhelming, with an overload of information and competing demands. The community he has built within the VEA is more than just a support organization, it is a family. The rapid growth of the VEA and its impact over the past year is a direct result of Isaac’s relentless dedication to serving others. I am honored to work under his leadership."
– Adrian Moreno, VEA Marketing Director
This recognition is a reflection of Isaac’s passion, leadership, and unwavering commitment to the veteran business community. Please join us in congratulating him on this well-earned Honor!
