BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WBRC) - The economic impact of the coronavirus is starting to hit local businesses in Birmingham and surrounding areas.
Business owners who rely on products shipped from China can't get them right now, aren't sure when they'll get them, and are having to start turning customers away.

LDS Business College will become Ensign College, offer some four-year degrees - The Salt Lake
The name LDS Business College, which the Salt Lake City school has worn since 1931, doesn't fit the college's curriculum, Kusch said. "Today, we offer more than just programs in business, so the name was somewhat confusing to people," he said in post-devotional interview.

Marin County approves cannabis business at Mill Valley's edge
Marin County awarded a cannabis license Tuesday to a business just outside Mill Valley’s boundary, despite opposition from some residents within city limits.

The city of Mill Valley has adopted an ordinance to prohibit all cannabis dispensaries within its limits.
San Anselmo moves to tighten pot business ban
The San Anselmo Planning Commission voted unanimously on Monday in favor of an ordinance that would close what some say is a loophole in the town’s ban on marijuana businesses.
Though pot dispensaries, commercial grow operations and other types of cannabis businesses allowed under state law are forbidden from operating in San Anselmo, the town code allows prospective businesses to apply for permits anyway.
That provision gives the Town Council the ability to make exceptions to the ban, which was passed in 2017 after California voters legalized marijuana. But the town’s planning director, Elise Semonian, told the commission on Monday that “it’s almost like an encouragement for someone to apply.”

Use Data to Answer Your Key Business Questions
Many organizations are investing billions of dollars in analytics with minimal return — hardly a recipe for success. Oftentimes, this disconnect stems not from faulty data science, but from an organization’s failure to consider the activation-readiness of their approaches to real-world applications of analytics.
According to Gartner, the global analytics and business intelligence software market reached $21.6 billion in 2018 . The firm has also predicted that, "through 2022, only 20% of analytic insights will deliver business outcomes." That means that organizations are investing billions of dollars in analytics with minimal return — hardly a recipe for success.
