WASHINGTON, DC - ZGS Communications was inducted into the Minority Media and Telecommunications Council (MMTC) Hall of Fame earlier today. Ronald J. Gordon, Chairman and CEO of ZGS, accepted the award during the organization's 11th Annual Access to Capital and Telecom Policy Conference Awards Luncheon.  David Honig, President of MMTC, bestowed the honor to Gordon speaking about ZGS's long history and extensive record of serving the Hispanic community.

"We are extremely honored to receive this special recognition from MMTC. The organization has been championing minority rights and opportunities in our industry for close to three decades. This award is a tribute to my business partner Eduardo Zavala, as well as the entire ZGS family for all of their hard work and commitment," said Ronald J. Gordon.
