Anyone has experience on whether the Chair of my board as I embark on this journey needs to be local or remote?

I am following the qla model of acquisition for reference

These days, remote is acceptable as far as accessibility goes. BUT I would say more local is better because the more local someone is the more 'context' they will have to understand the nuance of the specific business and add more value/make better decisions. Someone in a foreign country will be at a disadvantage since many things are location unique. By the way, why are you seeking a 'chairman' of the board when you are just starting out?
