Spotlight Presentation Recap 🇺🇸🐾

At this week’s AmSpirit Always Doing Business Chapter meeting, we heard from Dan DiMaria, Mortgage Lender with Fairway Independent Mortgage.

Dan's presentation focused on the power of relationships and the impact that a strong network can have, not only in business, but in our communities as well. He shared how meaningful connections often create opportunities to serve others, support important causes, and make a lasting difference.

One cause that Dan is especially passionate about is the American Warrior Initiative. Through this initiative, funds are raised to provide life-changing service dogs for veterans and first responders while also empowering local communities to support those who have sacrificed so much for others.

Rather than focusing solely on business, Dan reminded us that the relationships we build can become a force for good, helping connect resources, people, and opportunities to those who need them most.

Spotlight Presentation Recap 🔐

At this week’s AmSpirit Always Doing Business Chapter meeting, we heard from Mary Jane Alagheband, Representative at Coyne Insurance.

Mary Jane walked us through the growing importance of cyber insurance and how it fits alongside traditional commercial and residential coverage.

She explained how cyber insurance helps protect businesses from risks like data breaches, cyberattacks, and other digital threats that are becoming increasingly common in today’s landscape.

A key takeaway from her presentation was that cyber coverage is not a standalone consideration, but something that should be integrated into your overall insurance strategy. She also shared best practices for reducing risk, including proactive security measures and making sure your policies are properly structured.

As more business operations move online, understanding and preparing for these risks is becoming essential.
