Marc Rubin, Managing Partner of Berman Goldman & Ribakow LLP (bgr CPAs), has been recognized by Baltimore SmartCEO as a 2016 Center of Influence Award honoree. Marc began his career with bgr CPAs and celebrated 40 years with the firm this year. His clients benefit from his broad knowledge in the areas of accounting, auditing, and tax planning.

"The relationships with your trusted accountant, attorney or banker are often formed in stone. They’re there for you when you’re starting out, help you build your dream, and stick by your side long after you’ve achieved it. Deep respect and friendships are formed from long battles in the trenches, high times and low,” says Jaime Nespor-Zawmon, President of SmartCEO. "That’s why these Centers of Influence deserve this distinguished honor — and the meaningful words provided by their CEO nominators. Their stories are truly remarkable.”

The Centers of Influence Awards program honors the leadership, innovation, impact and success of the Baltimore region’s most enterprising accountants, attorneys and bankers. This year’s finalists average more than 22 years of experience in their professions and work for firms that employ more than 100,000 individuals. Honorees will be profiled in the September/October issue of SmartCEO magazine and celebrated at an awards ceremony on October 25, 2016 at The Grand.
