| BTG Enterprises, Inc. Named
among Georgia’s Top Woman Owned Businesses |
| ATLANTA, GA November 14, 2005
In recognition of the economic power of multicultural
businesses, DiversityBusiness.com, the nations’
leading multicultural internet site, recently named BTG
Enterprises, Inc. as one of the top woman-owned businesses
in Georgia. |
| The ranking is the 6th annual
listing of the Georgia’s top 50 woman-owned businesses.
Ranging in revenue size from $1M to over $232M, the companies
listed represent Georgia’s top multicultural earners
and challenge the long-held notion that a woman-owned
business is small or insignificant. Members are sought
after by major corporations wishing to increase spending
with woman-owned companies. |
| The Impact of Woman Owned Business |
|
| Affected by recent economic and demographic trends
and changes, corporations throughout the country
have recognized that buying products and services
from diversity owned companies positively impacts
their business. Diversity-owned businesses contribute
over $1.4 trillion in sales to the U.S. economy. |
| “Diversity businesses and consumers are
a growing force in the U.S. economy, and a force
to be reckoned with,” said Kenton Clarke,
CEO of Computer Consulting Associates International,
the company that built DiversityBusiness.com. “It’s
no longer only about the Fortune 1000. This is a
whole business segment that can carry its own, that
provides jobs, products and services, and generates
wealth for their communities. These are the new
leaders in American business.” |
| “Increasingly, women are taking on leadership
roles as this list would indicate, “ said
Brenda Porter, CEO of BTG Enterprises, Inc. “More
and more, women are stepping up to take advantage
of the opportunities and realizing success.” |
|
|
| This is a classification that represents the top
woman-owned businesses in Georgia, in sectors such
as technology, manufacturing, food service and professional
services. Large organizational buyers throughout
the country that do business with multicultural
and women-owned businesses use the list. This list
is produced annually by DiversityBusiness.com, the
nation's leading multicultural B2B Internet portal
that links large organizational buyers to multicultural
product and service suppliers. |
|
| The winning companies will be honored at a special
awards ceremony at DiversityBusiness.com’s
6th Annual Multicultural Business Conference, taking
place March 29 – March 31, 2006 at the MGM
Mirage in Las Vegas, Nevada. |
|
| “The listed companies are the heroes of
woman-owned business in America,” said Kenton
Clarke. “While Fortune magazine lists the
best companies for women and minorities to work
for, we list the top woman owned businesses. These
are the people that have conquered the hurdles and
made the sacrifices, building and strengthening
their communities, providing jobs and helping to
keep the fabric of the U.S. economy together.”
