meet zyylk
My name's Jack Z. Sherman, with the "Z" representing "zyylk", my nickname I got in showbiz years ago, hence my company's name.
Let my years of experience speed up your corporate development! Alongside my personal network of worldwide contacts and confidants, hence the ".net" added to the name.
I think I'm kind of a «digital nomad», because I travel permanently and feel at home all over the globe. Therefore, wherever in the world you need me, I'm ready to deliver! Flexible, adaptable, and focused on results.

YOUR CHALLENGE
Times like these teach us that you better safeguard your business from regional disruptions, whether it's conflicts, civil unrests, trade wars, tariffs, or sanctions.
MY SOLUTION

Professional Background
My entrepreneurial spirit already showed at the young age of 16 (while still attending school) with developing a computer program I sold to a major European bank.
The first experience as an advisor dates back to the late 90ies, when I was co-founder and CEO of a transatlantic management consultancy headquartered in Chicago (USA) with offices in Rome (Italy) and Munich (Germany).
In 2019, I launched zyylk group ltd. as an umbrella for all of my activities, and started taking advisory engagements under the zyylk.net label.
For over a decade until 2019, I've been CEO of boutique consulting firm Fiumicino with clients' projects in many countries. www.fiumicino.tc
