“The 2023 EYE
cohort is the largest in NMSDC’s history and reflects our commitment to
accelerating MBE growth as we march towards our goal of $1 trillion in annual
revenue for NMSDC-certified MBEs,” said NMSDC Senior Director of Strategic
Alliances and Programs Jetheda Hernandez.
NMSDC provides
cohort members the skills, tools, and strategies to start or grow their innovative
businesses. EYE participants are matched with mentors from corporate sponsors,
MBEs, and additional stakeholders and engage in an interactive pre- and
post-conference (NMSDC Annual Conference & Exchange) curriculum along with
five days of hands-on training and practical application.
