I had a terrible, sinking feeling that everything we had worked so hard to build was suddenly at risk.After the initial shock, my first thought came to me with surprising clarity: We had to…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. I’ve written several articles about the rise of non-alcoholic (NA) beverages, from Dry January to the “sober curious” movement that’s gone from niche to mainstream. While I still enjoy a craft cocktail with my husband once in a while, alcohol rarely fits into my routine.I enjoy alternatives that feel intentional, functional and are crafted with purpose.

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Ted Xenohristos, co-founder and chief concept officer of Cava, drew inspiration from his immigrant parents’ Greek heritage and the food he ate growing up. What began as a humble restaurant inside an old Russian bakery in Rockville, Maryland, blossomed into a national brand with 380 locations across 28 states and Washington, D.C.”We wanted to do it for an affordable price and [offer] something that people could share,” Xenohristos says. “We built that first restaurant with our bare hands. Everything [was] from the Dollar Store, Target, Home Goods.”The first few weeks of business…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. I own a firm dedicated to business optimization. Since the passage of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” or OBBBA, I’m now more inclined than ever to advise my larger and more growth-focused clients to consider the C corporation over other popular entity types such as LLCs and S corporations. That said, for smaller businesses and owners who rely year-by-year on their business profits for personal living expenses, the LLC or S corporation may still be the right fit for maximum tax savings.A refresher on pass-through incomeIn order to understand the impact…

Over the last few years, we’ve witnessed a fundamental shift in the global capability center (GCC) narrative. What was once viewed as a cost arbitrage model has matured into a more strategic engine, fueled by the dual forces of talent and transformation. And from where I sit, India is now central to that conversation.The pandemic wasn’t just a temporary disruptor. In fact, it accelerated what I would call the “realignment” of global operations.Within the first few months, companies that had previously been cautious about scaling operations remotely found confidence. And that confidence turned into conviction. The pace of GCC expansion…
