EO Nerve 2017

| SFBW Staff

Hundreds of highly successful business owners descended on the Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort and Spa in October for EO Nerve 2017.

The event involved members of the Entrepreneurs Organization, the world’s only peer-to-peer network exclusively for entrepreneurs. EO has 12,000 members internationally whose businesses have median sales of $4.7 million.

The Oct. 5-8 event involved networking, learning and having fun. Among the big-name speakers were Andy Lark, former chief marketing officer at the accounting software firm Xero; Keith Cunningham, author of The Ultimate Blueprint for an Insanely Successful Business; Victor Antonio, CEO of sales management firm Selinger Group; Debbie Gordon, president of the Master Key executive consulting firm; Ami Kassar, CEO and founder of business loan adviser MultiFunding; Corey Kupfer, founder and president of Authentic Enterprises and the Authentic Business Academy; and Mark Moses, founding partner at CEO Coaching International.

The EO crowd also had plenty of fun with Club EO in the Ocean Ballroom, an event at Xtreme Action Park, and a performance by singer Flo Rida.

Drew Limsky

Editor-in-Chief

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
