We are proud to announce that MA Design has achieved Women Business Enterprise (WBE) certification with the City of Columbus. This certification marks a significant milestone for the firm, especially under the new leadership of CEO, Carrie Boyd and COO, Lori Bongiorno. The WBE certification is a pivotal step in leading MA Design into its next phase of growth and innovation.

The leadership team is committed to driving the firm’s success and making substantial contributions to the community. This certification not only opens doors for MA Design but also aligns with the City of Columbus’ efforts to promote diversity and equity in contracting. MA Design’s participation in city contracts will now be part of the annual Diversity Utilization Reports, reinforcing the city’s commitment to creating equitable opportunities.

The WBE certification provides MA Design with enhanced access to crucial resources such as funding, education, partnerships, and support networks specifically designed for women-owned businesses. This achievement positions the firm to connect with larger corporations that have set spending goals or targets for minority and women-owned businesses, further expanding MA Design’s opportunities and impact.

“We are thrilled to receive the WBE certification,” said Carrie Boyd, co-leader of MA Design. “This recognition not only validates the hard work and dedication of our team but also empowers us to contribute more significantly to the local economy and community.”

Lori Bongiorno added, “This certification is a testament to our commitment to excellence and diversity. It opens up new avenues for growth and collaboration, enabling us to take MA Design to new heights.”

MA Design looks forward to leveraging this certification to foster new partnerships, drive creative design solutions, and continue its mission of enriching lives through innovative design.
