History

The Chicago Minority Business Development Council, Inc. (CMBDC) is one of the nation's premier organizations fo r minority business development in the nation. For over twenty years, CMBDC has championed the interests of minor ity entrepreneurs in the Metropolitan Chicago Area and nationally. CMBDC's Chicago Business Opportunity Fair, which is in it's third decade, was the impetus for the founding of t he National Minority Supplier Development Council, Inc. (NMSDC), a network of over 40 regional Councils in major cities across the country. CMBDC was born out of a direct initiative of corporate, government and civic leaders in response to a call from the minority community for business access and economic parity.
