Behind the Lines
A Year in Review
Excellence in business. It’s not a phrase many people
are uttering these days as 2008 rushes toward a tenuous close.
With Wall Street wobbling and Washington in transition, it
would be easy to overlook the success stories documented
in this 19th edition of KLEOS Richmond. Perhaps more than
ever, now is the time to recognize the strength and continued
growth of the Greater Richmond Region and applaud the many
noble strides made by some of Central Virginia’s most
exemplary businessmen and women.
As true visionary Virginians, the business leaders featured
in this publication continue to excel in their respective
fields and industries despite imperfect conditions. Between
the covers of this publication, you will find many illustrations
of the entrepreneurial spirit that pervades our region – a
spirit that is nurtured by the vibrant commercial environment
and protected by legislators who believe in an economy of
free enterprise.
This year’s honorees come from every corner of the
business community and represent public, private and non-profit
sectors, from canine health to managed wealth. KLEOS is also
thrilled to recognize the ongoing work of both the Greater
Richmond Partnership and the Greater Richmond Chamber of
Commerce who carry the great responsibility of protecting
Central Virginia’s commercial viability.
Join me in acknowledging achievement in Richmond commerce
as KLEOS Magazine highlights those who contribute to the
region’s growing reputation for excellence in business..
Also, we’d be honored to hear your comments, so please
contact us to let us know what you
think of KLEOS Magazine.
Sincerely,
R. David Ross, Publisher
