In this first of five special editions of the Florida Specifier Podcast, Ryan and Brett take a look back at the Environmental Permitting Summer School through the eyes of its founders and supporters – both past and present – to provide a snapshot of who they are; what they do; why they’ve continued their support over the years; and what the conference means to them.  

This volume begins with the Florida Chamber of Commerce’s Frank Walker, whose organization is a founding and continuing sponsor of Summer School.  He discusses his work at the Chamber; what Summer School means to them; and how he became the best-dressed man in Marco Island. The episode continues as Jeff Littlejohn and Ryan Matthews provide a eulogy for this year’s conference; take a look forward at the year to come; and reminisce about what the conference has meant to them over the years.

But before that, Ryan and Brett kick things off by discussing The Florida Specifier itself and the goal of making Summer School extend year-round.  They cover the great work that Patrick Gillespie and the team are doing to constantly improve and expand resources for professionals and policy makers; what already makes The Specifier the go-to destination for environmental news and discussion; and discuss the benefits of partnering with the Specifier and gaining exposure to the most focused environmental group of professionals in Florida to keep the operation growing and sustainable over time.

Writing articles, advertising in the paper and website, and sponsoring the newsletter and podcast are a few ways to reach new customers and expand your company or organization’s profile throughout Florida.
