Women's Business Certification Program
New England Corporate Partner
Ongoing
Annual Membership Dues: $2,500
CWE is the New England regional affiliate of the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC). The New England Council joins corporate supplier diversity managers with certified Women’s Business Enterprises (WBEs) to provide the means for increasing the number of contracts awarded to women-owned firms. Corporate partners are an integral part of the Council. They receive assistance with WBE sourcing, including a regional and nationwide referral network. CWE has partnered with leading corporations that are committed to enhancing opportunities for women’s business enterprises. Some of our partners include Microsoft, Mellon New England, Ahold USA, TJX Companies, Staples, and UPS. Our partnership helps set the New England agenda for women business owners and ensure women’s access to public and private contract procurement. Membership on the council is an opportunity to reach out to Women’s Business Enterprises (WBE’s) and other major corporate entities. It is also an important partnership because CWE is the only New England affiliate to certify WBE’s.
