First, I wish to thank Jerry Bologna, his staff, and the entire JEDCO board for honoring Renaissance Publishing as JEDCO’s 2014 Small Business of the Year. My partner, Errol Laborde, and I accepted the award on behalf of our team of dedicated employees, who truly deserve the recognition for all the hard work they put into producing outstanding, award-winning products. Thank you JEDCO.
Now onto 2015. This month I begin my term as chairman of the Jefferson Chamber of Commerce. Call me crazy, but I look forward to all the board meetings, committee meetings, ribbon cuttings and other networking events to follow. These are all opportunities to see many of you involved in activities that continue moving the business community forward throughout not only Jefferson Parish, but also our entire region. I am honored to serve as chairman of the four star accredited Jefferson Chamber – a leader for business growth. If you are not yet involved, why not? I would be happy to discuss the great opportunities that exist for you in the Chamber. You can reach me anytime at (504) 830-7247 or Todd@BizNewOrleans.com.
At Renaissance Publishing, we are getting the year started with two big events this January. Our bi-annual Bridal Show for New Orleans Bride magazine is Jan. 20 (BrideNewOrleans.com) and New Orleans Magazine’s annual Tops of the Town (TopsofNewOrleans.com) is Jan. 22. Come and celebrate New Orleans Magazine’s readers’ top picks in nearly 100 categories “Under the Big Top” at the New Orleans Public Belt Railroad.
Happy New Year!
