The Business of Pride awards ceremony presented by the San Francisco Business Times was held on June 2, 2026, at the Westin St. Francisco Hotel in San Francisco. Following the LGBTQ+ Business Expo organized by the Golden Gate Business Association (GGBA), the ceremony honored San Francisco Bay Times columnist and Openhouse co-founder Dr. Marcy Adelman with the Selisse Berry Legacy Leader Award. This year’s Corporate Pride honoree was the firm Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani.
Recipients of the Outstanding Voices honor included Tessa Brown (Germ), Nathan Blum (Arup), Mackenzy Calvin (EY), Peter Gamez (Visit Oakland), Scott Gatz (q. digital), Jackie Gross (Zscaler, Inc.), Lindsay Kauffman (Girls Unite), Natalie Le (Northwestern Mutual, San Jose), Sarah Lynn (BPM), Tom Magnani (Arnold & Porter), and Jen Valles (SF LGBT Center).
The San Francisco Bay Times—often confused by name only with the Business Times!—congratulates all of this year’s awardees as well as Business Times publisher Pete Casillas, Business Times Bay Area Events Director Felicia Brown, and their team on another very successful event. The new partnership with the GGBA also garnered praise all around.
