About the Greater New England Minority Supplier Development Council (GNEMSDC)

The goal of GNEMSDC is to provide a space that promotes and advances business opportunities for certified Asian, Black, Hispanic and Native American businesses by providing a network that connects these businesses with corporate members. The GNEMSDC is honored nationwide and recognized by organizations ranging from major U.S. corporations to public agencies and nonprofits.

The Certification Process

In order to qualify as a Minority Business Enterprise, at least 51% of the business must be owned by minority individuals. Businesses must submit an application to the GNEMSDC and complete an extensive business review to become a certified MBE. For Galatea, this included a pre-certification webinar, an interview with our Managing Member, Anirban (Raj) Basu (photographed above!), a virtual office tour and supporting documentation. The GNEMSDC has a very thorough process and high standard when certifying businesses to include in their MBE community.

Looking Forward…

Galatea is very excited to be officially recognized and certified by the GNEMSDC and to align our values and high standards to an organization whose mission is to expand business opportunities for MBE’s and ultimately increase economic opportunities for the minority business community.
