MGM Resorts honor for its support of women-owned businesses

The company was honored as one of four organizations of America’s Top Corporations
MGM Resorts International has received recognition by the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) as one of 2023 America’s Top Corporations for Women’s Business Enterprises (WBEs).
The company earned a spot on the list with three other organizations that are part of the travel, hospitality, art and entertainment industries.
Company Executive Director of Supplier Diversity & Sustainable Procurement Kenyatta Lewis summarized MGM’s commitment to diversity and inclusion.
Lewis commented: “MGM Resorts values the innovation, motivation and drive that WBENC-Certified Women’s Business Enterprises bring to our business ecosystem and supplier diversity initiatives.
“We’re honored by this recognition and look forward to even more collaboration in the coming years.”
Because of this achievement, MGM Resorts will be acknowledged in March during the WBENC National Conference in Nashville.
WBENC President and CEO Pamela Prince-Eason commented: “America’s Top Corporations set the standard for leadership in corporate supplier diversity programs and supply chains, as well as in development and support for women-owned businesses.
“Top Corporations are valued partners in our now 26-year strong WBENC commitment to providing essential growth and opportunities to women entrepreneurs and business owners.”
In addition to this recognition, MGM Resorts International was recently named by the Seramount Inclusion Index as a leader in diversity, equity and inclusion. The company was ranked as a leading inclusion index company, along with 36 other organizations.
Seramount is a group that recognizes companies for their ongoing commitment to creating solutions for cultural change.
MGM was recognized by the group for meeting criteria in three key areas that include recruitment, retention and advancement of racial and ethnic minorities, women, LGBTQ+ community members and people with disabilities. Organizations that foster an inclusive work environment and strive to maintain demographic diversity and leadership accountability are among those Seramount considers leaders.
