A message to our readers

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Virginia Business continues to gather the most timely and informative news each day, disseminating it through our daily e-newsletter, as well as breaking news alerts. Our upcoming April issue, which will be available both in print and online, will include a cover story special report on the coronavirus crisis.

Although news about the pandemic and its financial impact is largely unpleasant, we are doing our best to deliver the latest and most accurate information we can get to our readers and business leaders around the state. Facts are important and you can trust us to deliver them reliably, even when they are unpleasant. COVID-19 isn’t just the biggest news story or health story in the world right now, it’s also the biggest business story — possibly the biggest business news story we have ever reported in our almost 35-year history.

Under difficult circumstances, our mission to be Virginia’s Source for Business Intelligence takes on even more importance. Many thanks are due to our readers and advertisers for their ongoing support. Thank you for all that you do.

Stay well. We are all in this together.

Bernie Niemeier, president & publisher
