Kingston’s business community now has its very own source of local business news, thanks to Great River Media, publisher of the Ottawa Business Journal.

Great River Media is launching Kingston Business Journal, a sister publication to the already existing Eastern Ontario Business Journal. Debuting Oct. 24, KBJ will serve as a resource for business leaders across Kingston and the surrounding areas.

“With the launch of the Kingston Business Journal, we aim to provide local businesses with the insights and resources they need to thrive. Our goal is to become a trusted source for Kingston’s business community, delivering timely and relevant content,” says Great River Media president Michael Curran. 

Informing and inspiring the local business community

Designed to inform, inspire, and connect local entrepreneurs and executives, KBJ will provide business coverage tailored to the local community. Readers can expect insightful content delivered via print, digital editions, and a regular podcast. Whether you’re seeking industry trends, expert insights, to learn about your neighbours, or enjoy success stories, KBJ will become a part of your routine and an essential source of information for Kingston’s thriving business ecosystem.

Donna Gillespie, CEO of Kingston Economic Development, says the Kingston Business Journal will serve as a vital news platform to showcase the innovation and resilience that define our local economy for small businesses to major industry players. 

As economic developers, we have the privilege of witnessing firsthand the incredible journeys of businesses across Kingston. Whether it’s groundbreaking innovations or the steady efforts of companies that form the backbone of our economy, these stories deserve to be shared. The launch of the Kingston Business Journal marks a new chapter in telling these stories of grit, achievement, and local pride, and we celebrate this important addition to local business news coverage,” she says.
