New Orleans, LA, January 2009 In recognition of the economic power of multicultural and privately held businesses, DiversityBusiness.com, the nations’ leading multicultural internet site, recently named DYKON Computer Help Center as one of the top businesses in the United States.  DYKON is specifically ranked in three categories this year.    

 

DYKON was Ranked 471st among in the Top 500 List of African American Owned Businesses in the United States

DYKON was ranked 15th among Diversity Owned Businesses in Louisiana

DYKON was ranked 44th nationally among the Top100 Privately Held Businesses in Louisiana

 

This marks the 4th consecutive year that DYKON has been recognized by DiversityBusiness.com in their national rankings.

The Div100 is the 9th annual listing of the top 100 diversity-owned businesses. The companies listed on the Div100 represent the top multicultural earners and challenge the long-held notion that a diversity-owned business is small or insignificant. Div100 members are sought after by major corporations wishing to increase spending with diversity owned companies.

 

The Impact of Diversity Business

“Entrepreneurs are a growing force in the U.S. economy, and a force to be reckoned with,” said Kenton Clarke, CEO of Computer Consulting Associates International, the company that built DiversityBusiness.com. This is a whole business segment that can carry its own, that provides jobs, products and services, and generates wealth for their communities.  These are the new leaders in American business.”

                                                                                                                               

Affected by recent economic and demographic trends and changes, Fortune 1000 corporations throughout the country have recognized that buying products and services from diversity owned companies positively impacts their business. Diversity-owned businesses contribute over $1.4 trillion in sales to the U.S. economy.

 

 

Here is what Eben Dike, President and CEO of DYKON Computer Help Center, Inc. had to say about winning the awards a third consecutive year,
