About Us

In 1989 Greg and his late father John Krikorian co-founded Cal-Conn Enterprises
Inc., which publishes Business Life Magazine, Senior Living Magazine and
Businesslife.com.


Business Life Magazine is the only business publication to link the San Gabriel and
San Fernando Valley business markets, with the tri-cities of Burbank, Glendale
and Pasadena. Now includes bonus circulation in the Inland Empire, City of
Ontario, and Santa Clarita Valley. With Business Life Magazine you can put your
message in front of thousands of decision makers in the most vibrant business
market in Southern California.


In September 1990 Business Life published its first issue dedicated to recognizing
diverse women in our region who are making a difference for all. Business Life is
privileged to have the opportunity of recognizing local Women Achievers for the
past 32 years in Los Angeles County. We take pride in being able to honor
outstanding women who make a positive impact in our communities.


The Women Achievers events enable area women who are in business, real
estate, banking, small business owners, finance, healthcare, education,
entertainment industry, government, technology, and CEO’s along with those
who are in civic and professional organizations to inspire, engage and connect
with each other to elevate opportunities for reaching their goals.

“We are pleased to have publicly recognized so many amazing women since 1990 at our annual
Women Achievers event. That has set us apart and we pride ourselves on being one of the first
to shine a spotlight on women from all backgrounds including veterans, disabled persons,
company presidents, CEO’s, civic leaders, and

non-profit leaders – all of whom are Business
Life’s Women Achievers.”
