SAN FRANCISCO — Oct. 22, 2024 — Bospar, the “politely pushy” PR and marketing firm that puts health and tech companies on the map, today announced its certification as an LGBT Business Enterprise® (LGBTBE®) through the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC) Supplier Diversity Initiative. The NGLCC is the business voice of the LGBTQ community and serves as the nation’s exclusive certifying body for LGBTQ-owned and operated businesses.
“We are so pleased to welcome Bospar to the ever-expanding network of NGLCC certified LGBT Business Enterprises and the hundreds of corporations and government agencies eager to put them to work,” said NGLCC Co-Founder and President Justin Nelson and Co-Founder and CEO Chance Mitchell. “According to NGLCC’s groundbreaking America’s LGBT Economy report, America’s estimated 1.4 million LGBTQ business owners, many of them NGLCC certified, add over $1.7 trillion to the GDP and create tens of thousands of new jobs. We are proud to count Bospar among those who prove every day that LGBTQ businesses are the future of the American economy.”
Thanks to this recognition, Bospar is now eligible to bid on contracts through the NGLCC’s corporate partners’ supplier diversity programs, access exclusive educational resources made possible through NGLCC and work to develop business-to-business relationships with other LGBTBEs from around the world throughout the year but especially at the NGLCC International Business & Leadership Conference.
