We are excited to announce that WT Group has officially obtained Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) certification from the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC). This prestigious recognition highlights WT Group as a for-profit business that is at least 51% owned, managed, and controlled by members of qualified minority groups. An MBE achievement is a testament to the diverse leadership of WT Group, guided by CEO Karel Gomez, and the company’s strategic partnership with draftPros. Since 2023, our collaboration has brought together two industry leaders with draftPros’ telecommunications expertise and WT Group’s renowned engineering, design, and consulting capabilities. Together, we’ve elevated our ability to address the evolving needs of our clients and industries.
Being a certified MBE underscores our commitment to fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion within our organization and beyond. "WT Group’s recent certification as a Minority Business Enterprise marks an exciting milestone for both WT Group and draftPros," said Karel Gomez, CEO of draftPros and WT Group. "With draftPros proudly holding MBE certification for years, this shared achievement deepens our commitment to diversity, growth, and delivering exceptional value to our clients. Together, we continue driving progress in engineering, design, and telecommunications as minority-owned companies."
"Partnering with draftPros has allowed us to deliver exactly the kind of services and benefits we envisioned for WT Group," said Troy Triphahn, President of WT Group. "It’s about creating more opportunities, extending our reach, and broadening our impact - all key elements in driving our growth and shaping the future."
