The NMBC’s programs are designed to increase
purchases by member corporations from minority-owned
businesses and to broaden the base of minority suppliers in
high growth, technologically sophisticated industries and
professional services. These programs promote the
establishment and implementation of working relationships
between major corporations and minority suppliers through
joint ventures, subcontracting and mentoring.
