The Vidal Edition The Board Brief · 11 October 2026

In your field

Edelman's parent buys the 21% stake in PRAP Japan that WPP has held since 2002

Earned First · 1 Oct 2026 · about ¥1.27bn (US$8m) · PRAP: 378 staff, ¥7.68bn revenue · closing end of October

Why for you: You are weighing a minority investor: the deal is a fresh reference for your board's valuation talks, and the buyer is an independent, not a holding group.

For owners and boards

Four months after the deadline, most EU countries have yet to write the pay transparency directive into law

Ius Laboris · 30 Sep 2026 · in force in Italy and Slovakia, drafts in seven countries · pay-gap reporting for employers with over 100 staff

Why for you: With about 150 staff your agency will report its gender pay gap once the national laws arrive, and the individual rights, such as asking about pay levels, apply at any size. Review your salary bands and job-ad templates before the next hiring round, not after the law lands.

Questions

Before you sign up

Business or Professional?

Business is for those who run or oversee a company: owners, CEOs, board members and their advisors, with a brief every weekday morning on top of the weekly edition. If you work in a company rather than run one, the Professional edition follows your field, the companies you deal with and your interests outside work, once a week for €10 a month.

How is this different from media monitoring?

Media monitoring picks up mentions by keyword and is priced for organizations. Edition of One is written for one person: it follows all your companies and your industry at once, leaves out what you already know, and says why each item matters to you.

Why not just ask ChatGPT?

You can, if you know what to ask. We start from your work instead, and find the moves, deals and rule changes you had no reason to search for, each linked to its source. More on this.

Which countries do you cover?

Wherever your companies operate. We read sources in their own language and summarise them in yours, with the original linked.

How does payment work?

Your first week is free. Before it ends we ask whether you want to continue; if you do, you pay by card through our payment provider, monthly, and receive a VAT invoice for your company.

Can I order it for a colleague or a whole board?

Send a colleague the link to this page: we send issues only to people who have signed up themselves. For a board or leadership team, write to .

What do you use about me?

Public information about your work, with your consent, and what you tell us. You can see and correct it on your own page. Details in the privacy notice.
