Blue Cross Blue Shield Association Named One Of America's Top 50 Organizations For Multicultural Business Opportunities
CHICAGO, Jan. 26, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Blue Cross Blue Shield Association (BCBSA) has been named as one of "America's Top 50 Organizations for Multicultural Business for 2016" by DiversityBusiness.com.
Known as the Div50, the list recognizes the top 50 organizations that differentiate themselves in the marketplace by providing the best opportunities and the most business for companies owned by minorities and women. BCBSA ranks 27th on the 2016 list and is joined by some of the largest and most recognized brands in the U.S.
"We are proud that our record of inclusion has won recognition on the Div50 list, which recognizes the commitment that the Association and its 36 independent Blue Cross and Blue Shield licensees have in cultivating successful business partnerships with diverse suppliers across the country," said Jody Voss, vice president of strategic business services for BCBSA. "Blue Cross and Blue Shield companies believe that strengthening business diversity contributes to our organizational success and the overall economic well-being of the communities we serve."
The 16th annual list was produced by DiversityBusiness.com, the nation's leading multicultural B2B online website. This year's Div50 was determined based on responses to an online survey from 1.5 million diverse business owners. The businesses that completed the survey based their responses on factors such as volume, consistency and quality of business opportunities granted to women and minority-owned companies.
