VBM January 2021 issue

In February’s Vermont Business Magazine we invite you
to curl up with a good book – perhaps one of 31 written
by Newfane native, Archer Mayor featuring fictional
Brattleboro detective Joe Gunther. In this profile, Mayor
advises that creative writing is often all business.
We also spotlight diverse Vermont entrepreneurs: South
Burlington and Williston’s Beta Technologies manufactures
electric vertical-takeoff-and-landing aircraft that will
transport organs for transplant patients and cargo for the
US Air Force. Environmental Entrepreneur David
Blittersdorf wants to power passenger rail service with
Tesla batteries and Aqua Vitae founder Jeff Weaber urges
people to trust their gut and drink Komboucha – a fuzzy
probiotic drink that might just save lives.
Vermont Business Magazine’s Economic Report focuses
on Lamoille county - who are the COVID winners and
losers so far? Plus a Q&A with Stowe Area Association
Executive Director Carrie Simmons
