As the National Small Business Week gets underway, TransLingua is celebrating its 2016 Award for Top 500 Women Owned Business in the United States, the 16th annual national listing of top businesses by DiversityBusiness.com. Companies listed on the Top Business List represent the Nation’s top multicultural and diversity owned earners and challenge the long-held notion that a privately held business is small or insignificant. Winners are sought after by major corporations wishing to increase spending with MBEs.
“As a women-owned small business, we at TransLingua are delighted and honored to be recognized for all our hard work and effort in the translation industry with this award” said Nicole Michel-Deshagette, Co-Owner of TransLingua Associates, Inc.
“In 2016 diversity does not just mean that you are minority owned or small business anymore. Diversity in our organization and our business approach helps us leverage our difference. It is an excellent tool that allows us to make a real impact in a world where not only people, but also markets, products and services are multicultural.” said Nicole.
