Invenio SEO Certified NGLCC Supplier Diversity Program
Invenio SEO is now certified in the supplier diversity program through the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC).
With this certification, Invenio is now known as a LGBT Business Enterprise® (LGBTBE®) participant.
What this means is that the NGLCC corporate partners have the opportunity to receive SEO training and enterprise-level program support and consulting services from Invenio SEO.
A short list of the eligible corporate partners include:
- Allstate

Invenio went through a certification process that included a committee of peer business leaders and NGLCC staff. The committee reviewed financials, references, business offerings and a site visit to determine final eligibility.
Each business that is granted LGBTE status must be at least 51% gay owned and operated to be eligible. This includes the ability to dissolve the company, make final decisions on hiring and firing, and have signature authority for contracts.
Re-certification occurs every calendar year, with the same criteria applied as during the original certification process.
