A certification from the NACD (National Association of Corporate Directors) is not an easy task. I have studied governance (failed one test!) of companies based on USA regulations and best practices and appreciated how they apply globally, and size doesn't really matter on the below topics:
- ESG - Environment Social and Governance
- Regulatory shifts and strategic implications
- Risk Management
- Cybersecurity
- Talent Recruitment
are all challenges on the agenda of the boards of any company, being public in USA, or medium and small size in Europe.
RxPack being a pharma packaging company serving global, and local international companies is managing all of the above, by its teams, and with customers, supplyers and partners.

Memo to all business owners: Do you know the 25X and 40X financial rules?
Background: As Tony Thomas said & Arlin Sorensen reinforced, a gathering in #tampa last week was more of an #experience than an IT event. My three biggest takeaways from this gathering, which was designed to help attendees with long-term financial and business planning...
FIRST: You owe it to your family to effectively plan for the successful exit of your business.
SECOND: If you're looking to sell your business and want to retire, you need to know these numbers:
1. X = Your annual spend for the rest of your life. Let's use $100,000 as a hypothetical number.
2. 25X = The amount of tax-free money you will need to retire comfortably. In this hypothetical case, 25 X $100K = $2.5 million.
3. 40X = The amount of tax-free money you will need to create "generational wealth" that potentially lasts beyond your lifetime. In this case, 40 X $100K = $4 million.
THIRD: In the hypothetical scenario above, you need to sell your business for at least $5 million, minus 20% capital gains tax, to achieve your generational wealth target number of $4 million.
