How does one go about raising $500 million? How will that money be used to develop the industry? How does this venture differ from the Collect Growth's special purpose acquisition fund? And how can you get in on the action? All those questions are answered on today's show, plus we talk about hot topics in the hemp space, including what we can look forward to in the 2022 Farm Bill. rePlant Hemp Impact Fund https://replanthemp.com/ News Nuggets KY Hemp applications open for 2022 https://www.paducahsun.com/news/hemp-applications-open-for-2022/article_29acb2c1-e344-5f6b-8bee-66386e07dffc.html Kentucky's Hemp Program https://www.kyagr.com/marketing/hemp-applications.html Hemp, CBD businesses look to alternatives as delta-8′s legal future remains uncertain https://www.dallasnews.com/business/2021/11/18/hemp-cbd-businesses-look-to-alternatives-as-delta-8s-legal-future-remains-uncertain/ Hemp OpenSpace December 8, 2021 https://www.hempopenspace.com/ Special thanks to our sponsors: JBT, cannabis banking specialists https://www.jbt.bank/ IND HEMP www.indhemp.com

Today's guest is Nicholas Hinrichsen, this is Nicholas' second time on the show and I am very excited to talk about what he and his company has achieved since we last spoke. Nicholas went to Stanford Business School in 2011 and started a digital automotive retail company after graduating in 2013. Nicholas and his co-founder Chris Coleman went through the startup accelerator YCombinator and raised a total of $10M in Venture Funding before they sold the business to Carvana in 2017. Nicholas left Carvana to start his new company, Clutch. Since we've talked, Clutch has grown to have 21 employers and has raised $16 million in venture funding. Nicholas and his team have grown to have an annual run-rate of $500M in refinance applications. In today's episode, we talk about how to scale a company, when to pivot, and Nicholas's company, Clutch.

About $200 a year - that's what it's costing NZ households in order for the Tiwai Pt aluminium smelter to stay open, the Electricity Authority says. It says New Zealanders are subsidising the multinational by about $500 million a year. Our reporter Ruth Hill hit the streets of Wellington to gauge reaction.

The Agents of Innovation podcast features conversations with entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and artists, hosted by Francisco Gonzalez. Episode 96 (October 2021) features an interview with Michael Eisenberg, a General Partner at Aleph, an equal partnership and early stage venture capital fund with over $500M under management. He is the author of five books, including his new one, "The Tree of Life and Prosperity: 21st Century Business Principles from the Book of Genesis." Episode 94 also features the song "Feel Like That" by Matt Brown, who was our featured guest on Episode 57. You can find his music at: www.mattbrownsongs.com/

“Everyone processes things differently. We hoped that it wouldn't take away from the rest of my year but you never know in those moments. To bounce back with a 3:59 (for 1,500m) was like, ‘Hell yeah! I deserve to be doing this and racing at this level and competing. This is what we trained for all year.' It was almost like a rewarding moment coming back from that disappointment...Our conversations were really positive. It was about what you could be excited about ahead. There are world champs the next two years and then an Olympic team. This sport moves quickly and there's a lot more to be excited for right away. That definitely helped turning around on the trials.” Josette Norris is a professional runner for the Reebok Boston Track Club. If track and field had a breakout star of the year award, Josette would be a strong candidate for that. She came into the year with personal bests of 4:10.82 for 1,500 meters and 15:29.34 for 5,000 meters. Now, she's at 3:59.72 for 1,500 meters which is No. 9 on the all-time U.S. list and 14:51.32 for 5,000 meters which is No. 10 on the all-time U.S. list. She also ran 4:22.71 for the mile this year. Her best races came after she finished 8th in the Olympic Trials final for the 5,000 meters despite having the fastest time of the year going into the race. She candidly discusses what it was like to overcome that disappointment and then go on an absolute tear, which included a third-place finish in the Diamond League final. Her trip to Europe was the first time she left the country. You'll also get to enjoy plenty of fun New Jersey banter. So if you're in the Jersey or Pennsylvania area, get yourself a cup of Wawa coffee and enjoy this chat which I'd love to dedicate to Josette's mom, who is a huge fan of the pod.

On this podcast, we've talked to a lot of policy-makers, pundits, professionals and practitioners about big picture trends they are observing and experiencing as a result of the pandemic. Today, however, we are going more micro. We'll talk to a venture capitalist about his portfolio of start-ups, and how those companies have been impacted by changes in the way we work and live, and what they tell us. Michael Eisenberg is a General Partner at the Tel Aviv-based Aleph, which is an early stage venture capital fund with over $500M under management. Since its founding in 2013, Aleph has invested in more than 40 companies including Melio, Lemonade (NYSE: LMND), Bringg, JoyTunes, Healthy.io, Windward, Empathy and Nexar. Prior to Aleph, Michael was a General Partner at Benchmark Capital for 8 years, the legendary Silicon Valley-based VC firm, and he continues to work with Benchmark on their Israeli portfolio. Since around 1995, Michael has invested in and served on the boards of some of Israel's leading companies and startups, such as Wix (Nasdaq: WIX), Gigya (acquired SAP), Shopping.com (Nasdaq: SHOP, acquired: EBAY), and Lemonade (NYSE: LMND). Michael is also the author of a fun and smart blog, called “Six Kids and a Full Time Job”, which covers topics ranging from politics to technology, Judaism and macroeconomics. The title of his blog is misleading because now Michael actually has 8 kids and 2 grandchildren - and he's only at the tender age of 50! He is a frequent contributor to The Marker and Calcalist, Israel's Hebrew-language daily business newspapers. Michael has also published numerous books in Hebrew, including “The Vanishing Jew”, “Everyone can be Moses” and “Roaring Tribe”. Among other projects during the pandemic, Michael worked on translating his most recent book into English: "The Tree of Life and Prosperity: 21st Century Business Principles from the Book of Genesis”. Given his experience as a successful investor and business builder, and his deep literacy in Judaism, he's the ideal person to tackle this subject and we'll talk about his book in this conversation.

What is the purpose of a goal? Many would say it's the first step towards achieving something – but that isn't the case. The purpose of a goal is not to achieve a result; it's to be appropriate in the moment.This means that our goals should be a compass for who we can become. It's not about the result. It's about informing who you have to be every moment of your life in order to become the kind of person who gets those results.Unfortunately, school is only focused on results. Even in organizations, employees are often judged based on results. We rarely have someone in our lives who teaches us how to think. That's when you have to step up and become a leader for yourself.

Hey everybody, I'm Brian Clapp VP of Content and Engaged Learning at WorkInSports.com and this is the WorkInSports podcast! Just as much as change is a constant, so too is resistance to change.  Every generation, to some degree, fights against change. They like how things operated in their youth, that is what they see as their perfect combination of how things should be.  This definitely applies to sports, and unfortunately just about everything else. A lot of the discord in our society comes down to many people being unwilling to change, they like the powerful seat they have, and change could disrupt that.   In sports, it's often about nostalgia, memories of going to the game with their dad and getting a hot dog vs. sharing memes on social media.  I remember vividly how upset the generation before mine was about the wild card being introduced in baseball... it was going to ruin the game! The Wild Card, really? The game is so fragile that introducing more teams to the playoff format can break it?    This resistance is nonsense, things change. The world changes. Demand changes.  The fact you carry around a supercomputer in your back pocket capable of giving you real time game results, means you don't have to wait for Headline News to give you updates on the sports news of the day at the 10's and 50's of each hour. And you surely don't have to wait for tomorrow's newspaper.  Anyone that is resistant to these changes is stuck.  Now, that said, I'm not always a social media maven, I still like to watch a game instead of just highlights, I still like a well-crafted story...and every once in a while, when I'm feeling nostalgic, I'll turn on SportsCenter and remember the olden days.     That was a bit of a rocket shot at ESPN... sorry, love you guys!  Today's media and fans are changing, their appetite their interests. Do you think commissioners like Adam Silver can afford to sit back and think, man I loved the days those fans acted in this particular way. That was great.  No! They are constantly evolving!  That bring us to today's guest Jack Settleman, CEO and Creator of SnapBack Sports. Jack hosted a panel right after mine, at the recent Hashtag Sports conference, and he captivated me. Jack was talking new media, new fans ad new levels of attraction...I was hooked and wanted to learn more.   Snapback sports tagline: a new way to consume sports – does just that, really well. Snapback is the largest sports Snapchat account in the world totaling over 500M+ views YTD. And Jack and his team leverage other social channels, collaborations, memes, experiences, betting, fantasy –it's amazing, and it works.  Let's learn a little something about fandom with Jack Settleman CEO f SnapBack Sports!
