MINORITY BUSINESS EXCELLENCE AWARD
COMPANY NEWS
GEM is a proud recipient of the 2020 Pinnacle Business Award in the Minority-Owned Business Excellence Category as a result of our investment in the greater Knoxville region!
Each year, this award is presented by the Pinnacle Business Awards and the Knoxville Chamber of Commerce to an outstanding East Tennessee minority-owned business which is not part of a regional, national or global franchise, is independently-owned and operated, and controlled by ethnic minority group members. Minority group members are defined by the Small Business Administration as United States citizens who are Asian Indian American, Asian Pacific American, Black American, Hispanic American, or Native American. Ownership by ethnic minority individuals means the business is at least 51-percent owned by such individuals and the management and daily operations are controlled by those minority group members.
