Supply chain resiliency and diversity initiatives are both high on corporations’ priority lists right now, and a new grant program combines the two into one. Siemens USA is providing a total of $140,000 in grants to Black-owned businesses to support diversity and inclusion in entrepreneurship and business development.
Working with the Atlanta chapter of the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA), Siemens will select businesses to receive the grants in seven U.S. cities, including Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Orlando, and Pasadena, Calif.
