Baltimore, MD—October 27, 2023— JuneBrain Inc., a business specializing in accessible monitoring for eye care and neurology, is proud to announce national certification as a Women’s Business Enterprise by the Name of Women’s Business Enterprise Council Greater DMV (WBEC Greater DMV), 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.
As JuneBrain's CEO, obtaining WBENC certification was crucial to us. It highlights our commitment to promoting diversity and opportunities for women-owned businesses. By joining a community of like-minded corporations and vendors, we aim to advance opportunities for women entrepreneurs and drive growth through new partnerships and sourcing initiatives.
The WBENC standard of certification implemented by the Women’s Business Enterprise Council Greater DMV 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.
