The Delaware Division of Corporations receives award

You probably already know that The State of Delaware is the legal home to more than 750,000 business entities, including 61% of Fortune 500 companies. Do you where all of those companies come from? The Division of Corporations, a part of the Delaware Department of State, processes more than 500,000 corporate and commercial filing and information requests annually and is responsible for handling 22 percent of the state's general fund revenue.

We have long known that the Division personnel pride themselves on working with legal professionals, the legislature, and the Courts to develop leading edge services and technologies designed to meet the needs and exceed the expectations of the international business community. Thanks in no small part to the hard work by everyone at the Division of Corporations; Delaware is known as the “Corporate Gateway to the World”.

This past week, they were recognized for their efforts and honored as the recipients of the 2006 Delaware Quality Commitment Award.

The Delaware Quality Award is designed to support the development of and recognize the achievement of organizational excellence in Delaware.

Delaware Secretary of State Harriet Smith Windsor had this to when the award was announced:

"Delaware is the national leader in business entity formations, and we are excited about this independent recognition of our commitment to providing the world's corporate and legal services community with high-quality products and first-class customer service”

Congratulations to everyone at the Division of Corporations, and thanks for making Delaware the #1 place to incorporate!
