Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Business Briefcase! Well, it’s finally here… 2018! Can you believe how quickly the last year passed by? December truly is a time of year that I feel should never end; but nevertheless, I am excited for whatever challenges or achievements the new year may bring. As we roll into January, many will likely be making their New Year’s resolutions. Start going to the gym? Eating healthier? Whatever your resolution may be, you can do it, and with effort, anyone can make 2018 the success they likely hope it will be. And beyond that, let’s hope the New Year brings plenty of great business to the West Valley. With today’s roundup ranging from new developments to business launches, if January is any hint at the rest of the year, there shall be plenty to look forward to in the rest of 2018. Here’s the news!
