EDITORIAL
 A YEAR OLD
On 8.09.2006 I received the very first issue of Business Spotlight. On the 22.09.2006 we invited English Teachers from leading language schools and universities to take part in the Launch Ceremony for Ukrainian version of Business Spotlight, which took place in Lipsky Osobnyak. This September we celebrate our first anniversary and wish to thank all of you, our faithful readers, for being with us this year and encourage you to remain with us as subscribers. We are proud to have you.
Among those who subscribed for the 2nd half of 2007 we drew the names of 15 lucky individuals or companies - who won The Oxford Business Dictionary. The main prize of this subscription campaign
