    Kevin Speers Gets Technical About his Technology Company

    In today’s podcast, we visit with a Virginia company, and we get rather technical with you.  That’s because our guest, Kevin Speers, is CEO and Co-Founder of SPLICE, a technology company that has created a data sharing and translation system that automates processes.  Mouthful? yes.  Understandable?  Of course, because Kevin talks to us about his company, and explains the services they offer the export/import community.

    Dr. Sonat Birnecker Hart Shares Koval Distillery’s Remarkable International Story

    With this episode, I’m going to introduce you to a company that offers products with such intriguing flavors as Rose Hip, Chrysanthemum Honey, Ginger, and Cranberry .  The company is Koval Distillery, and I had a marvelous conversation with our distinguished guest, Dr. Sonat Birnecker Hart, co-founder and President. Prior to opening KOVAL Distillery, one of the largest fully independent and woman-owned craft distilleries in the US, she spent over a decade as a full professor in both the United States and Germany.  In 2008, she gave up tenure in hopes of a different quality of life; one that would afford an opportunity for her to work with her husband, give up commuting, and return to the city she loved: Chicago.
