Spotlight on Business Magazine - August 2019

In this issue

In this month’s issue we take a deeper look into festivals, events and farming and see what all the buzz is this summer as we kick on the second half of 2019.

If you are on the lookout for the best iconic Canadian Music then New Glasgow is the place to be in Nova Scotia this summer for the 24th Riverfront Jubilee. We chat with Jubilee organizers about the 3-day event that is affectionately called, “The Jube” to find out how they have been so successful over the past 23 years and what Jube goers can expect from this year’s event.

In this month’s issue we chat with Dan Barry (President and Owner of the PEI-based event security company Toursec) about Toursec and their focus on making your event memorable for all the right reasons.

Brian and Owen Manzer, the founders of Manzer Apiary Inc are the brains behind the E-Z Hive, a modified top bar beehive, have already answered the call and are capturing the attention of researchers and hobby beekeepers alike. Spotlight on Business Magazine spoke with Manzer brothers about their knowledge-based start-up success story – one that has the potential to make a positive global impact (not to mention an impact on Digby County’s future).

Summer is not only a time to work on your tan, but it is also an excellent time to work on your brand. Brand and Design Expert, Brittany Pickrem, takes you through 5 ways to boost your brand this summer.
