A search targeting a US small business designation (WOSB, SDB, Veteran)?

by a searcher from Iowa State University of Science and Technology

I was talking with an investor today and he mentioned that they typically skip over Women-Owned small businesses (WOSB) and other special designations because they can't support them. Has anyone had success flagging small business designations if they fit one of the categories? Or have you passed on opportunities because the current owner is in one of the designations and you aren't?
