The glossy 104-page magazine titled Business BVI is designed to be a well-respected, high quality, annual publication that promotes the British Virgin Islands as an attractive jurisdiction for international business and foreign investment, while also stimulating greater interest and growth in the domestic business sector.

The magazine will be launched at the new pool side deck at Maria's by the Sea on Thursday, January 25.

CEO of Oyster Global Publications and Publisher of Business BVI Mr. Russell Harrigan said that the magazine provides readers with information, analyses, ideas and solutions about doing business and investing in the BVI.
“Business BVI is an idea whose time has come,” Mr. Harrigan said. “The BVI's economy is growing and the opportunities for business are expanding. The magazine will serve as a guide for readers who want to understand the dynamics of this vibrant economy now, and in years to come.”
Editor-in-Chief Mrs. Portia. Harrigan said that an Editorial Board comprising prominent business leaders provided advice during production of the magazine. “We were privileged to have leaders from the financial services, tourism, real estate, international business and legal sectors as editorial advisors on this project. The result is a magazine which is relevant and thought-provoking,” she said.

Mrs. Harrigan said that articles in Business BVI 2007 address topics including the BVI's legal framework, its telecommunications sector, real estate trends, sports and recreation, and much more. In addition, there is a comprehensive Fast Fact Guide of useful information about the Territory.
