The History of bizSanDiego

Fresh And Original

Entrepreneur and publisher Brian Sacks first introduced the "biz" brand in 1997 successfully launching a magazine that truly reflected the voice of Arizona's growing business community. Unlike any other regional magazine, the publication grew beyond it's own pages growing to encompass special resource guides, definitive "best of" lists, executive seminars and online resources. In 2005, a global news corporation expressed interest in purchasing the magazine and Sacks decided to sell.

Seeking to once again create a community of conversation among innovative and provocative business leaders, in 2006 Sacks joined forces with David Anderson and Roger Hurni, two marketing professionals with national and international pedigree, to reach the growing market of San Diego County.

The result - bizSanDiego.
