“Every day, our vast network of diverse suppliers helps the University of Illinois System fulfill its educational, research, and outreach missions. Through the Diverse Supplier Development Program, the U of I System is giving back to these businesses by utilizing our transformational, land-grant power to remove some of the barriers to growth that many diverse businesses face. That will, in turn, benefit each community that these businesses call home and promote inclusive growth throughout Illinois.”
