The Business Journal asked six different local businesspeople about what their hopes were for 2007. By Mark R. Madler Staff Reporter What is the one thing you want to accomplish in your career or at your business in 2007? Kristin Petrovich Chief Executive Officer and Founder HD EXPO Burbank HD EXPO is looking at 2007 as yet another year of great growth. With entertainment technology, such as HD, digital cinema, streaming content ( I could go on and on) I see that our workshop division will play a larger role in educating all content sectors with these technology transitions. We will also play a larger role with this technology through HD EXPO’s Virtual HDE.com where we will be streaming both industry entertainment, interviews, education and panels from the HD EXPOs. Growth, education and community are the focus for us in 2007! Heidi Baker, Chief “Jane” Officer Eden Jarrin, Chief Executive Officer Be Jane, Inc. Burbank In 2007, Be Jane’s resolution is to empower over half a million women and expand our community through mass outreach efforts such as our new book, Be Jane’s Guide to Home Empowerment, our continued online video series at BeJane.MSN.com, our content rich website at www.BeJane.com and our nationally syndicated newspaper columns. In addition, we will also directly reach these women through local efforts such as Home & Garden Shows, Women’s Shows and Charity and Group events where we can have one-on-one relationships with our community of Janes. We will also continue to grow our business even larger by partnering with national and multi-national brands to increase the targeted reach of Be Jane’s home improvement message.
