This month’s Changemakers LA podcast episode is hosted by Deborah Membreno, LISC LA Program Officer. It covers Preparing Small Business for Eligibility and Accessibility in Supplier Diversity Programs. Each guest provides unique insights on how they are helping impacted businesses increase their overall sustainability and eligibility for contracting.

  • Dr. David Choi, Award-winning professor of Entrepreneurship, Loyola Marymount University (LMU)
  • Claudia Morales, Small Business Owner and Business Consultant
  • Rene Cota, President of CMG Alliance
  • This episode began by discussing how many workers are motivated to leave the traditional 9-5 to pursue their passions, exit corporate America, or take on new opportunities like starting a business. Each guest serves the diverse capacity gap needs of new and disadvantaged businesses. In addition, our guests’ business development efforts increase access to supplier diversity initiatives, which facilitate measurable and equitable outcomes towards upward mobility.
