LGBTBE Certification

Verified LGBT-owned businesses. Expanded opportunities.

At the Massachusetts LGBT Chamber of Commerce, we partner with the NGLCC to help LGBTQ+-owned businesses access supplier diversity opportunities and national recognition. Certification verifies your business as majority-owned, operated, and controlled by LGBTQ individuals and opens doors to new growth opportunities.

Why Become Certified?

LGBT Business Enterprise (LGBTBE) certification gives your business a competitive edge and access to resources designed to help you thrive. Benefits include:

  • Standing out from competitors in procurement processes
  • Access to major corporations and organizations seeking diverse suppliers
  • Networking and collaboration with other LGBTQ+-owned businesses
  • Eligibility for scholarships, mentorship, leadership training, and business development resources

Who This Is For

Any business that is majority-owned, operated, and controlled by LGBTQ individuals and is ready to leverage certification to grow its visibility and opportunities.

Certification is nationally recognized and can be a game-changer for businesses looking to expand their reach, connect with corporate partners, and build a stronger, more sustainable operation.
