Do you enjoy it when people ask you tough questions? I have to be honest… I do. This week, Stephan and I attended the Berenberg and Baader Bank AG conferences in Munich. After every conference, I take a moment to reflect on the most thought-provoking question that came up. This time, one stood out: How much capital do you need to grow 5x in size (sales)? Why do I love this question? ⚫️It shifts the focus from short-term concerns like personnel changes or governance. ⚫️It’s forward-looking, sparking a conversation about the long-term vision beyond the next quarter. ⚫️It invites deeper discussions about growth opportunities and the resources required to achieve them.
