In this episode of the Midweek Takeaway, we're joined by Tim McCarthy, CEO, and Dr Sébastien Goudreau, newly appointed CSO of ImmuPharma. The company has just announced a groundbreaking patent for its lead asset P140, the world's first “Immunormalizer,” offering a precision diagnostic and treatment approach for autoimmune diseases. With potential 20-year exclusivity, the patent targets patients with the newly identified “Type M” immune disorder, who are super-responders to P140, opening the door to safer, more effective therapies across up to 50 autoimmune conditions. We discuss how this dual opportunity as both a first-in-class therapy and novel diagnostic test positions ImmuPharma at the forefront of a $100bn treatment and $10bn diagnostics market, what this means for partnering potential, and why the company believes P140 could transform the landscape of autoimmune disease management.

In this Midweek Takeaway, the team are joined once again by Colin Bird, Chairman of Bezant Resources. We discuss the company's agreement to acquire a 90% stake in Namib Lead and Zinc Mining (NLZM) for US$2.5m plus royalties — a move that secures an existing processing plant and fast-tracks the Hope and Gorob copper-gold project in Namibia by at least two years. The plant will process pre-concentrated ore from Hope and Gorob, with the potential to treat NLZM's zinc-lead-silver ore in future, while reducing haulage costs and environmental impact through dry ore sorting. With the Hope open pit set to produce 8,000 tonnes of contained copper annually at 1.65% CuEq, and resource growth potential along a 97km strike length, an independent model places the project's NPV at US$46.8m with a 63% IRR.

In this episode of The Sunday Roast, recorded on June 29, Phil Carroll, Kevin Hornsby and Charles Archer take a whirlwind tour through a week that felt like a market rollercoaster, from geopolitical tension in Iran to surging crypto activity. They unpack the dramatic US airstrike on Iran's Fordo nuclear site and the fragile ceasefire that followed, with Trump delivering typically blunt commentary. The team is joined by Hewie Rattray, CEO of the London Bitcoin Company (LSE: BTC), to discuss their decentralised mining operations across North America, expanding BTC holdings, and the broader implications of institutional capital entering the space. They also welcome James Sheehan, CEO of Pri0r1ty Intelligence (AIM:PR1), for an in-depth conversation on the launch of their Pr1bit crypto payment platform and its potential impact on digital commerce. Elsewhere, they spotlight market movers including Tungsten West (TUN) up 70% on critical minerals news, Wishbone Gold (WSBN) up 60%, and Anemoi (AMOI) down 55% despite a new Bitcoin strategy. There's also news from PR1, Tiger Royalties, Bezant, and African Pioneer, plus a packed weekend ahead with Wimbledon, Glastonbury, and the Austrian Grand Prix lighting up the summer calendar.

In this episode of The Midweek Takeaway, we welcome back Jonathan Bixby, CEO of Tiger Royalties and Investments Plc (AIM: TIR), to unpack the company's latest move in the decentralised AI space — the acquisition of its second Bittensor subnet, Tiger Beta. Following the strong performance of Tiger Alpha, now generating over $4,800 in daily emissions, Tiger is doubling down on its strategy to own and operate valuable digital infrastructure within the Bittensor ecosystem. We break down what subnets actually are, how Alpha tokens and TAO emissions work, and why this model could be compared to buying prime real estate in a rising digital city. Jonathan also discusses revenue potential, future plans for TAO treasury management, and what investors can expect as Tiger scales its position in this emerging AI economy.
