Caribbean Fortress Ltd. is a company dedicated to bridging the divide between English and Spanish-speaking business communities in the Caribbean, and beyond, through laid back, irie, networking events. The Jamaica-based company has a track record for executing memorable events with global personalities, including one of Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN)’s television hosts, while delivering maximum exposure and Bolt-styled results.

The company also publishes #FortressBusiness, the Caribbean’s FORTUNE, and #DigitalLyme on engaging e-platforms to keep ambassadors, professionals, investors and more, abreast of investment trends, high-value stories and interactions to improve trade and lives. Internships are offered to sixth form & college students to hone their bilingual writing and networking skills and to advance digital literacy for a stronger Caribbean.

Gale Peart started this networking business to leverage her diverse background in event planning and hospitality, financial reporting and philanthropy and to align her strong, international reach and award-winning social media skills with helping others make solid business connections. As a testimony to the power of digital gateways, Gale had the honour of posing a question to Sir Richard Branson via FORTUNE (2008). Since then she has been dreaming of meeting Branson, and shamelessly beating him at backgammon, in Jamaica.
