When Thelma Ferguson leads initiatives targeting billions in diverse supplier spend, every vendor must deliver both diversity impact and banking-grade compliance. We're the women-owned event partner that checks both boxes.
Discuss Your Diversity + Security RequirementsYour Global Head of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Thelma Ferguson oversees supplier diversity initiatives across Commercial Banking, balancing ambitious spend targets with the rigorous security standards that define banking operations. Meanwhile, Frederick Royall III's National Head of Diverse Businesses role requires event platforms that both demonstrate commitment to supplier diversity and meet enterprise operational standards.
The challenge isn't finding event vendors—it's finding women-owned, WBENC-certified suppliers who can also pass JPMorganChase's financial services security reviews. Your Microsoft Office Suite ecosystem demands platforms that integrate seamlessly rather than adding new security review overhead. This is where most event vendors fail the procurement test.
EventBuilder was built for exactly this intersection: we're a women-owned, WBENC-certified Microsoft Preferred Supplier with ISO 27001/27701 certification, delivering enterprise-grade events inside your existing Teams environment without requiring new platform reviews or data governance exceptions.

"We have been using EventBuilder for our partner events and have great success with the platform. The EventBuilder team is very responsive with excellent customer service. We always get a thorough answer the first time."— Mike Iem, Senior Program Manager, IoT Marketing and Partner Events, Microsoft
Unlike Zoom Events or ON24, EventBuilder extends your existing Microsoft Teams environment rather than adding another platform for IT to secure and govern. We delivered 75,000+ events for Microsoft itself because we eliminate the "second security review" problem.
Where Cvent sells software you administer, we own the outcome. Real humans plan your program, build the registration, moderate live events, and deliver post-event reporting with 24/5 coverage—no help desk tickets.
Our WBENC certification satisfies supplier diversity requirements while ISO 27001/27701 compliance meets banking security standards. Most event vendors offer one or the other, never both.
