BBC Friday 21 Sept 2018 – “Bainbridge Biz Bytes” w/ Kevin Dwyer

Join us this brisk BBC Friday for a community business innovation discussion with founding BBC Regular and journalist-comedian Kevin Dwyer: “Bainbridge Biz Bytes” [working title] is a proposed “local/regional Web Site/Blog, by local contributing writers, focused on the business niche. Experts say niche publishing can be more successful in the long run.” 

The Idea. With the proposed subtitle “Celebrating Business and Entrepreneurship on Bainbridge Island and throughout the Kitsap Peninsula,” the site will be an aggregater and pollinator (originator) of stories focusing primarily on such categories as: Non-Profits, Real Estate, Trends (business, demographics, economics, technology), Tourism & Travel, plus Point Of View (columns from contributors on subjects such as Leadership, Investing, Human Resources, Business & Politics). Some sub-categories: Second Acts (seniors with a passion, doing neat business or community stuff in retirement); Business Books (good reads for biz folks); After Hours (interesting and fun stuff business people are doing in their free time, such as art, acting, coaching, playing music, running a non-profit or running with biker gangs like the Geezers Of Furry).

An interesting and creative brainstorming session for a creative new idea. A fun idea. Let’s see what might happen. BBC, the home of crazy … er, fun stuff. Kevin on LinkedIn: linkedin.com. Geezers Of Fury: facebook.com/groups/107291689320212/.
