WASHINGTON, October 8, 2019 – Networking For Future, Inc.

NFF is proud to have been named to the ICIC Inner City 100 list for six years and as a Hall of Fame recipient for two years.
The 2018 Quality Jobs Champion Award recognizes Inner City 100 alumni companies that have demonstrated a commitment to creating quality jobs for inner city residents. This award ranks companies based on their share of full-time employees, employees who are inner-city residents, and a score that measures five dimensions of a quality job (a competitive wage, basic benefits, career-building opportunities, wealth-building opportunities, and a flexible and stable workplace).
“Inner City 100 companies are forces of economic opportunity, optimism and transformation in their communities. They lead the way in innovation, job creation and economic revitalization, and it’s an honor to shine the spotlight on their leadership and accomplishments,” said ICIC CEO Steve Grossman. “In addition to excellence in business, these pioneering entrepreneurs have demonstrated a deep commitment to and passion for their communities, which significantly impact the well-being of their local economies.”
“These businesses and their owners are a testament to the impact innovation and entrepreneurship have had in rejuvenating urban areas across the U.S. Companies like Networking For Future are experiencing revenue growth and increased investment, which are in turn creating more jobs and economic opportunity for citizens in the communities where these companies reside,”
ICIC President and COO Matt Camp.
“NFF is honored to be recognized as a role model for quality job creation that positively impacts our community.”, commented Majid Saadat, president of NFF. “Our work culture establishes a progressive employee environment, which, in turn, creates a more vibrant and vital inner-city experience.”
