Testimonials

“WBE Canada aide un cabinet d’avocats de taille modeste, tel que Walker Law, à rencontrer d’importants fournisseurs qui, autrement, ne le sauraient pas ou ne se rendraient pas compte de leurs capacités. Ils recommandent que les entreprises appartenant à des femmes soient certifiées afin de pouvoir se connecter avec des entreprises qui recherchent des fournisseurs diversifiés auxquels elles n’auraient autrement pas accès.

Walker Law
“WBE Canada helps a boutique-sized law firm, like Walker Law, get in the room with other larger suppliers that otherwise might not know about them or might not realize what their capabilities are. They recommend that women-owned businesses be certified to get the chance to connect with corporations who are looking for diverse suppliers they wouldn’t otherwise have access to. That kind of partnership, community and mentorship opportunities are a huge benefit WBE offers as well.”

CIBC Is Committed To Diversifying Its Supply Chain
“Le principal avantage a été d’être exposé à des penseurs stratégiques de haut niveau qui ont apporté des enseignements clés qu’ils ont volontiers partagé avec nous. Cela m’a permis de penser plus largement et de me concentrer sur des activités plus rentables, en laissant de côté tout ce qui ne contribuait pas à la rentabilité.”
