Overview

Background:  This effort began in earnest in 2003 with the local stations.  By themselves, they do not have the bandwidth for more local productions, especially a production about business.

The First Presentation: In 2005 the first presentations were made with an eight-page, 11x8 format which is still online.    To review that work, please click here. 

It quickly became obvious that SBS had to offer even more and focus on the key business organizations within the USA and around the world.  The largest and most ubiquitous is the Chambers of Commerce.  Our hope is that this presentation finally pushes this project into gear.
