(Schools, universities, hospitals, etc., are not described.) For public companies, to give a sense of the size and scope of the enterprise, we also include revenues (or, in some cases, assets for banks and certain financial institutions). The companies and directors spotlighted in the published roster are only a sample of those included in the online roster, which will be available soon to subscribers.
