In October 2021, the U.S. Census Bureau reported that an estimated 18.7% (1.1 million) of U.S. employer businesses were minority-owned, veteran-owned businesses made up about 5.7% (331,151) of all businesses. About 20.9% (1.2 million) of businesses were owned by women.
While minority-owned and veteran-owned businesses make up only a fraction of all businesses, each of these sectors are growing rapidly and are making a significant impact on the growth of the U.S. economy.
