We are delighted to unveil the winner of the contest to name Miami Herbert's newsletter: Marlen Lebish, with her submission of "Miami Herbert Ticker."
The name draws inspiration from the pulse and dynamism of the financial markets. Much like a financial ticker provides real-time updates, the Miami Herbert Ticker aims to not just facilitate the flow of information but also foster the constant, vibrant exchange of ideas, achievements, and insights within our community.
Our sincere thanks go to Marlen and we invite the entire Miami Herbert community to contribute to and help shape the identity of our newsletter.
