The nexus of Florida business, politics and policy.

We are a digital media team providing original reporting, analysis, and aggregated news. We are focused on the nexus of Florida business, policy and politics, bringing together government and elected officials, business leaders and influencers.

We seek to tell more complete stories about the businesses, industries and policy initiatives that drive Florida’s economy, recognizing that today’s legacy media too often oversimplifies or overlooks these important stories.

We’ve been in operation since 2016 with a track record of strong growth. Now, we are in the process of expanding our coverage of the industries that are essential to Florida’s growth, including energy, healthcare, agriculture, telecommunications, tourism, financial services, insurance and gaming, among others.
