8. Martin V. Smith The acumen of Bud Smith was renowned. Facts, figures and projections for an empire that stretched over 200 properties and businesses were constantly swirling in his head primarily because technology had not evolved to today’s standards that are critical to decision-making. Therefore, the MVS Center is an appropriate link to the future in his memory. 7 Decision Making
