Tech Start Ups

Lighting Up Hollywood and NYC

Each month our friend Mike Colwell from the Business Innovation Zone has a luncheon that features a start-up success story. (That event is this Wednesday the 19th for tickets head to the Biz Zone!) And, each month Mike brings us folks like Garrett Young the founder of Prism Lighting based in tiny Sully, Iowa.  While Garrett might be based in small-town Iowa his products light the sets for The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and ESPN along with several other sets.  What is remarkable about this adventure is the fact that detractors said..."It can't be done.".Insight on Business the News Hour with Michael Libbie is heard Monday - Friday from 5PM to 6PM on 1350-KRNT, Des Moines.  Connect with us on Twitter @IoB_NewsHour and, for more fun, here is our Facebook Page

Insight on Business 3 October 2012

Insight on Business the News Hour with Michael Libbie is a production of our advertising agency, Insight Advertising, Marketing & Communications and is heard each day M-F on 1350-KRNT, Des Moines. This podcast has the interviews of the day and today we welcomed Aaron Hoffman from I/OWA the start-up and tech conference coming to Des Moines next week.  Then we heard from the world of small retail with Lexi Wornson who is a second generation owner of Back Country Outfitters in Beaverdale.  We rounded up the hour with a conversation with Rick Davis from the Rick Davis Team on a new way for buyers to get what they want and sellers to get what they want when it comes to a home purchase.  We monitor Twitter @IoB_NewsHour before during and after the broadcast...in case you have a question.  Our Facebook Page is right here.
