Please describe the publication's mission and readership:
Florida Trend magazine is the only publication that covers business-related news and public policy issues in Florida from a statewide perspective. In that role, it has two major responsibilities:
One, to reflect the diversity of the various city-states within Florida, which have widely varying business communities and interests. Two, to foster a sense of statehood and promote democracy by illuminating the issues shared by all of Florida's communities. This has traditionally meant a strong commitment to investigative reporting, analysis and context.
The magazine enjoys an audience of the state's most influential business and political leaders and decision-makers, from the governor to the CEOs of virtually every significant company in the state.
Please describe the enterprising work that went into this entry and its significance or impact on readers:
Florida Trend readers count on the Around the State section to keep them informed on the important news events and trends happening in parts of the state where they do not live. Each of our Around the State writers lives in his or her area and has a first-hand knowledge of the communities. Florida is made up of six distinct regions. The Around the State section allows business leaders in one part of the state to learn from events in other parts of the state - especially handy when they are traveling around Florida. Readers tell us repeatedly that the section is the most valuable part of the magazine.
