INDIANAPOLIS — The 2025 WNBA All-Star Game is coming to Indianapolis in July, and it will bring a boost for some local, women-owned businesses with it.
WBE certifications verify a company is at least 51% led, owned and controlled by women, which can open doors for businesses.
“Our goal is to use the excitement and energy behind WNBA All-Star 2025 to engage and empower women business owners here in Indiana,” said Tracy Ellis-Ward, WNBA All-Star 2025 Host Committee legacy staff lead and senior vice president for diversity, equity and inclusion at Pacers Sports & Entertainment. “By obtaining their certification, entrepreneurs will not only have more visibility but more access to resources and opportunities that can take their business to the next level.”
Women business owners who are interested in the program should send an email to supplierdiversity@pacers.com by 5 p.m. on April 4. Those who are selected will have the opportunity to earn their WBE certification by July.
