The best place according to me to know if a person's business or any recent topic is google and to know more about the work that person does is LinkedIn.

Knowing where to go to conduct research is very important! For me, when I need to research a business or topic, Google is usually my first go-to. While this may feel like an obvious choice, Google has so much information available right at my fingertips! If I need to research a person, LinkedIn is usually the first site I visit, as I'm usually able to immediately learn more about that individual and their work.
