UTICA, N.Y. — Laurie Schoen, president and CEO, and Amy Mielnicki, executive VP, of Paradigm Consulting, Inc., recently announced that their firm has been granted Woman-Owned Business Enterprise (WBE) certification by Empire State Development’s Division of Minority and Women Business Development.
Paradigm Consulting says it provides group retirement consultation and investment advisory services in Central New York, as well as across the United States. The firm is headquartered in the Utica Business Park at 133 Business Park Drive.
The WBE certification may benefit an organization that receives state funding and is required to create relationships with minorities or women-owned businesses, Paradigm said in a news release.
Under state law, a WBE is a business enterprise in which at least 51 percent is owned, operated, and controlled by citizens or permanent-resident aliens who are women, according to Empire State Development’s website.
