Using MBE Status to Win Business

Have any other operators had success leveraging MBE status to win new business with private companies or government? We run a B2B service business mostly focused on private life-science companies and recently got our MBE status. Would be interested to hear how others have leveraged it.

Great thought, Xander. There's great opportunity for MBE's in this market as many Fortune 50/100/500 companies struggle to meet their minority quotas in their supply chain. MBE status requires creative structuring in search -- and there are other options. The Promise Venture partners with diverse entrepreneurs in the context of MBE status opportunities and beyond.
