Sereth Design, a full service graphic design, website design and development studio, is proud to announce national certification as a Women’s Business Enterprise by the Women's Business Development Center - Midwest, a regional certifying partner of the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC).
WBENC Certification is the gold standard for women-owned business certification in the United States.
“We are thrilled to have obtained our WBENC Certification to be able to connect with more nonprofits and businesses who can benefit from our design services. Being certified gives us more authority in our space, and it’s an honor to be recognized among other women-owned businesses who are championing entrepreneurship across the world.”
— Esther Knox-Dekoning, Founder & Creative Director at Sereth Design
The WBENC standard of certification implemented by the Women's Business Development Center - Midwest is a meticulous process, including an in-depth review of the business and a site inspection. The certification process is designed to confirm the business is at least 51% owned, operated, and controlled by a woman or women, and that the business has appropriate structure and strategic business planning and implementation in place.
By including women-owned businesses among their suppliers, corporations and government agencies demonstrate their commitment to fostering diversity and the continued development of their supplier diversity programs, which in turn empowers women as leaders and brings about a more diverse, balanced and sustainable economy.
WBENC Certification combined with professional development and engagement in the WBENC network provides unsurpassed opportunities year-round, both virtually and in-person, for women-owned businesses to grow and expand their business and innovation through events, programming and connections with major corporations and other WBEs.
