While the annual NMSDC Conference is already behind us, here at COGENT InfoTech, the theme of the conference carries on.  At COGENT, we are still “Playing to Win”, and with the continued support, guidance and networking afforded us through our NMSDC membership, we expect to be “winning” for years to come.  We anticipate “winning” the trust, the opportunities and, ultimately, the privilege of doing business with the marketplace of both today and tomorrow.

We write to you today to simply say “Thank you!” Thank you for the example that you have set, the reputation that you have established and the platform that you have provided. The model that you have put in place is both simple and effective – bring MWBE firms together with the corporate entities that can benefit from their services AND their diversity - examples of success abound!.  The reputation established by the NMSDC precedes all MWBE firms and provides immediate credibility. At COGENT InfoTech, our most valuable asset is our reputation and we thank you for sharing that view.  As for the platform, we could not ask for a loftier pedestal from which to market our services and value. Whether it be through the local minority councils across the country or on the national level like the recently completed event in Las Vegas, we have gained significant exposure to likeminded suppliers as well as potential customers.

COGENT InfoTech is a turnkey IT Services firm, but more importantly, we are an MBE firm with a clear understanding that it is our diversity that sets us apart.  Our diversity is not limited to our backgrounds but rather it includes a diversity of talent, a diversity of strengths and a diversity of ideas. In combination with the continued guidance from the NMSDC, it will be our commitment to both diversity and quality that will allow COGENT to experience what we anticipate to be consistent and incremental growth.

Thanks for a great event in Las Vegas and thank you for what you do every day on behalf of companies like COGENT. We would not be where we are without you!
