The Link Between Economic Competitiveness and Workplace Equal Opportunity in Florida

“When you have an almost 200 year business heritage and are active in more than 100 countries world-wide, diversity is part of your core, part of your fabric—you live it, you breathe it and you respect it.” -Louis V. Buccino, Citi

“It doesn’t make sense from an economic development standpoint for the state to fail to support non-discrimination. Our leadership has been so engaged with local government on these issues because it has business impact.” -Jason Altmire, Florida Blue

“At C1 Bank and at all of our investments around the world, we strive to hire the very best people and we realized early on that to compete for the very best talent on a global scale we needed to not only have inclusive policies, but inclusive practices.” -Trevor Burgess, C1 Bank
