Military Entrepreneurship: Advice from the Experts

Participants of our courses frequently tell us that one of the major advantages of American Dream U is that we provide our participants with advice and connections that are like shortcuts to the top. In fact, one of our participants describes us as giving our participants “the key to the side door.”


We pride ourselves on being able to give back to the military community in this way, especially to entrepreneurs. You have all already sacrificed so much to make our country a better place and you have many more unique talents, passions, and abilities to continue to improve our nation in the civilian sector. We’ve seen it time and time again – those connected to the military bring something special.

One of the ways we provide a “key to the side door” is by getting our participants access to training from the people at the top. We don’t want you to hear how to be a successful entrepreneur from just anybody. We want you to hear it straight from those who have done it best.

Travis Kraus is one such expert. Travis is a retired combat veteran of the U.S. Special Operations Command, serving in 1st Ranger Battalion and 1st SFOD–D. Following active duty service in special operations, he was selected as a civilian instructor and trainer for Special Forces and then Joint Special Operations Command.

Travis eventually transitioned into the corporate sector and assisted in business development. He has since founded the development of Operational Postured Security Alliance, LLC (OPS Alliance). OPS Alliance designs and executes training exercises and programs all around the country, primarily for the DoD and DoS Special Operations sector, but also within the corporate arena providing various security services, to include electronic information exploitation and red cell operations.

Travis knows all about how to leverage your military skills in the entrepreneurial arena. Who better to guide you on your entrepreneurial journey? To hear Travis speak and have a chance to ask him your specific questions, register for ADU LIVE: May. This sprint course is completely free for all past/present service members and spouses!
