    VermontBiz April 2024

    In April’s edition of VermontBiz, we profile Suresh Garimella,
    a mechanical engineer and scientific researcher who took over as
    UVM’s President in 2019, bringing rapid changes to Vermont’s
    flagship land grant University. UVM is benefitting from the fresh
    perspective of new leadership much needed at this critical time.

    VermontBiz dives deeper into the never ending work of
    VTrans. While the most urgent problems created by last July’s
    floods have been resolved, numerous “permanent emergency
    relief projects” are still being scheduled. There are also several
    big multi year projects in process including Burlington’s
    Champlain Parkway and revamping the I-89 interchange in
    Colchester

    And don’t miss our special insert in partnership with the
    Vermont Chamber announcing the 18th annual Best Places to
    Work in Vermont!

    VermontBiz March 2024

    VermontBiz March 2024

    In March’s VermontBiz we profile Jean Giard, President and CEO of Vermont Federal Credit Union. Credit unions may look like banks and act like banks, but they are, in reality, nonprofit membership-driven financial cooperatives - and under her leadership, Giard has plans to make this Vermont’s Credit Union.

    Check out the Vermont Biz feature on the progress of CityPlace development in downtown Burlington! After 15 Months of construction, the $200 million-dollar project will have 350 apartments, 2 hotels, retail space and is on pace to be completed by its target date of summer 2026!

    And our Windsor County economic report shows that businesses are back on good solid ground. After the pandemic's upheaval and summer floods that left communities playing a form of economic pick-up sticks, “good and solid” are a reprieve.

    VermontBiz February 2024

    VermontBiz February 2024

    In February’s Vermont Biz we bring you a profile of Lindsay DesLauriers, CEO and President of Bolton Valley Ski Resort. Founded and developed by her father Ralph in the 1960s, this is as much a story of a family as it is of a business. In an era of consolidated ski resorts owned by out-of-state corporations, a family- run ski resort is a treasured rarity.

    Attention rail lovers - An increase in federal funding could mean the addition of 2 more Amtrak routes!

    Vermont Biz’s Economic Report focuses on Lamoille county - The economy is strong, and good things are happening but living here is beyond the means of many.
    And we take a closer look at Lamoille County projects in progress, including Johnson Light Industrial Park, Smuggler’s Notch Natural Resources and Parking and the Wolcott community wastewater system.

    Finally - we are pleased to honor outstanding business of
    the year: Bourne’s Energy!

    November’s VermontBiz profiles Maura Collins, the executive
    director of the Vermont Housing Finance Agency, which was
    recently awarded $50 million to try and make a dent in the
    housing shortage. From building loans to building infrastructure,
    this brilliant and compassionate woman is up to the challenge.

    We also look at the Washington County Economic report: After
    adapting to the post-pandemic economy, Washington County
    now has to adapt to the consequences of climate change - call it
    “washing away the new normal…”

    there new incentives business owners can offer employees? How
    did the summer flooding affect transportation around the state?
