Charleston, South Carolina • Veteran-Led • Community-Driven
Where Business Becomes Brotherhood.
Stronger relationships. Stronger leaders. Stronger communities. Business & Brotherhood brings entrepreneurs, veterans, first responders, professionals and civic leaders together around leadership, trust, opportunity and service.
The Mission
More Than Networking. A Community Built to Serve.
Founded and hosted by U.S. Navy veteran and entrepreneur Justin Myers — The Pirate Hunter — Business & Brotherhood is a Charleston-based leadership and relationship-building community. We bring together people who believe the value of a connection is measured by what it builds: trusted friendships, mentorship, new opportunities, stronger businesses and lasting service to our neighbors. Whether you're launching your first business, leading a growing team, transitioning from military service, or finding new ways to give back, there's a place for you at the table.
Our Foundation
Four Pillars
01
Authentic Relationships
Make introductions that turn into meaningful professional connections, lifelong friendships and mutual support.
02
Leadership & Mentorship
Learn from business owners, veterans, first responders and community leaders who have earned experience by serving and leading.
03
Entrepreneurship & Collaboration
Share ideas, discover partnerships, support local enterprise and help others move from ambition into action.
04
Veterans & Community Impact
Put relationships to work for veteran-support initiatives and the Charleston community through opportunities to volunteer, sponsor and serve.
