Kingsport, TN, November 15, 2012 --(PR.com)-- The Kingsport Office of Small Business Development & Entrepreneurship (KOSBE) today announced the first-ever release of their 2012 Annual KOSBE Awards eMagazine. The magazine features the event’s sponsors, finalists, past winners, as well pictures and details regarding the event itself. Content includes but is not limited to descriptions of the award categories, the judges, ticket information, and even news briefs on past winners’ businesses.

The eMagazine will publish two issues biannually – once in June and again in November.
