CHICAGO, November 19, 2003—DiversityBusiness.com, the nation's leading multicultural B2B online portal, recently named Bronner Group, LLC as one of the top 50 diversity-owned businesses in Illinois.

The Div50 is a classification that represents the top 50 diversity-owned businesses in the United States in sectors such as technology, manufacturing, food service, and professional services. The Div50 is produced annually by DiversityBusiness.com. The companies listed on the Div50 represent the State's top multicultural earners and challenge the long-held notion that a diversity-owned business is small or insignificant.

"The Div50 companies are the heroes of diversity-owned business in America," said Kenton Clarke, CEO of Computer Consulting Associates International, the company that built DiversityBusiness.com."While Fortune magazines lists the best companies for minorities to work for, we list the top businesses owned by minorities. These are the people that have conquered the hurdles and made the sacrifices, building and strengthening their communities, providing jobs and helping to keep the fabric of the U.S. economy together."

BRONNER is a multi-disciplined, professional services company that provides comprehensive management and technology consulting, large-scale workforce training, and financial and electronic assurance services to federal, state and local government. With offices in Chicago, Washington, D.C. and Atlanta, BRONNER has grown its client base to include over 100 different units of government across the United States.

BRONNER is a certified women-owned business (WOB) and small business enterprise (SBE).
