Podcasts about Accelerator

Advancing Innovation in Manufacturing (AIM) Centre has announced the launch of its new AI Accelerator Programme for Manufacturing Companies, a ten-week hybrid initiative designed to help businesses across Ireland understand, adopt, and scale artificial intelligence effectively. For many manufacturers, the hardest part of AI adoption is knowing where to begin. AIM's new Accelerator helps turn uncertainty into action - guiding companies toward the most valuable use cases for their operations. Starting on 1st October 2025, applications are now open to manufacturing companies of all sizes and sub-sectors. The programme is delivered by the National AI Studio for Manufacturing at AIM Centre, co-funded by the Government of Ireland and the European Union through the ERDF Northern and Western Regional Programme 2021- 27. Supporting AI Adoption in Irish Manufacturing The AI Accelerator provides a structured pathway from AI strategy to deployment, enabling participating companies to build a working demonstrator tailored to their specific needs. The programme blends online delivery with in-person events, including access to Ireland's National AI Studio for Manufacturing. Over the ten weeks (one day per week) participants will gain: • A working AI demonstrator aligned with their operations, paired with a structured use case brief to support future deployment. • Guidance on integrating AI within existing ERP and data systems. • Access to industry-specific use cases, demos, and prototypes, highlighting tangible opportunities for business transformation. • Expert guidance on governance, risk, and compliance - including EU AI Act requirements. • Insights into scaling AI across operations. AIM Centre advises teams of two people attend from each company, ensuring both strategic and technical perspectives are represented. Accreditation and Funding Support The programme is CPD-accredited by Engineers Ireland, recognising its value in professional development. To support participation, SMEs can access up to 80% funding, while larger companies can also avail of significant funding support. This ensures that businesses of all sizes can take advantage of the opportunity to future-proof their operations with AI. AIM-ing for Real Results "Irish manufacturing is at a pivotal moment in its digital transformation journey. Through this programme, we aim to demystify AI and give companies the tools, confidence, and practical outcomes they need to adopt it responsibly and at scale and with measurable business impact" - David Bermingham, Director of AI, AIM Centre.

Flute 360 | Episode 337: “The Back-to-School Crash Is Real—Here's How to Bounce Back” Have you felt that crash lately—the jolt of going from summer freedom to early rehearsals, packed teaching schedules, and late-night studying? You're not alone. The back-to-school crash is real, and in today's episode I'll share practical ways to bounce back with more energy, balance, and joy. Whether you're a high school flutist, a busy college music major, or a teacher juggling lessons and family life, this episode will give you realistic tools to take care of yourself so you can thrive musically and personally. We'll talk about: Why sleep rhythms are your secret weapon for performance and focus. Simple food swaps that support your body (and what to avoid when you're running on fumes). Breath work and bedtime rituals that actually calm your nervous system. The truth about coffee, screen time, and energy crashes. How movement—even a 20-minute walk—can reset your creativity and reduce stress. This isn't about perfection—it's about giving your body and mind the support they need so your artistry can flow from a place of wholeness. Remember: eat well, sleep well, breathe well, and move well. When you nurture your whole self, you'll show up to the practice room, the stage, and the classroom with greater focus and confidence.

Episode Summary In this episode of the Scalable Law Podcast, I'm joined by my good friend and past Accelerator member, Kristen Porter. Kristen is the founder of Oh No Legal, a law firm that grew nationally during the COVID years, and more recently, she launched Zenovate Marketing, a digital marketing agency built specifically to help law firm owners grow. Kristen shares her journey of starting her firm out of necessity, why she chose to niche down into the real estate industry, and how that decision not only made her practice easier to run but also made her marketing more powerful. We also talk about the frustrations law firm owners face when outsourcing marketing, and why she created Zenovate to be a trusted solution that understands the legal profession. If you want to hear how niching, list building, and smart digital strategies can change the game for your firm, you'll love this conversation. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why Kristen decided to start her own law firm and how it grew quickly through digital marketing How list building, webinars, and lead magnets transformed her pipeline without relying on referrals Why niching made her law practice easier to run and more profitable How different client personalities within one niche call for different service models What led Kristen to launch Zenovate Marketing and why law firms need marketing support that actually understands the profession The importance of deep brand positioning and copywriting for law firm growth and freedom Quotes from the Episode “Our law firm growth is totally dependent on our digital marketing. For a long time, we didn't even use paid ads, we built everything through organic list building and partnerships.” “Nicheing makes everything easier. Your practice becomes smoother, your marketing clearer, and other professionals see you as the expert.” “Copy is what converts. Your logo and design make you look professional, but the words you use are what actually bring in the right clients.” Links and Resources Learn more about Kristen's marketing agency: Zenovate Marketing Connect with me at Scalable Law for programs and resources on law firm growth and law firm freedom Explore the Scalable Business Lounge for support, training, and a community of law firm owners Share the Value If you enjoyed this episode, share it with a fellow law firm owner who would find it valuable.

Bert de Jong, Director of the Quantum Systems Accelerator (QSA) at Berkeley Lab, is interviewed by Yuval Boger. Bert describes how the center develops superconducting, trapped-ion, and neutral-atom technologies in parallel, and the importance of certification in verifying quantum computations. They discuss the roadmap for integrating quantum into HPC at NERSC, the cost and scaling challenges of large systems, and the Department of Energy's focus on scientific—not cryptographic—applications. Bert also highlights creative approaches to error correction, opportunities for industry collaboration, the need for workforce training starting in high schools and community colleges, and why he believes quantum will deliver practical scientific impact within five years.

God is a good Father who uses holidays and festivals to disciple His children all throughout the Old Testament. But for some reason these have been lost in modern Christianity.  Now, we don't HAVE to celebrate these holidays, Christ fulfills them all, BUT we've found over the past 10+ years that they are a POWERFUL tool to disciple our kids, follow God more closely, and build deep memories that impact us, our kids, and our communities for a lifetime. Here's why we like celebrating them, and a quick reminder that our Accelerator is open to join right now for September, where we'll be giving you a full "how to" so you can celebrate your first Biblical holiday - Sukkot - this October without any stress!

Executive coach Michael King breaks down why being talented at your craft doesn't automatically make you good at running a business. He shares his framework for moving from reactive daily tasks to intentional vision-building, emphasizing that most creatives are thinking way too small about what they're building. Michael challenges listeners to create a "to-be list" focused on identity and impact rather than just grinding through endless to-dos. Key Takeaways Talent vs. Leadership are different skills - You can be amazing at video production but terrible at running a video business, and both require intentional development Start with identity, then vision, then structure - Before diving into tactics, get clear on who you are, what you want to build, and who you need on your team Create bandwidth for future thinking - You have to intentionally make time to work ON your business, not just IN it, even when you're swamped with client work Embrace being "good and different" - Stop comparing yourself to others and own what makes you uniquely valuable in the marketplace About Michael King Michael King is not just a coach — he's a builder of people, companies, and creative movements. With over a decade of executive insight, creative thinking, and relentless execution, King has launched full-scale leadership systems and founded anti-agencies that prioritize genuine service over industry norms. At the center of King's approach is a fundamental belief that strategy, simplicity, and systems unlock the best in people. This philosophy drives his work across multiple domains: coaching Fortune 500 executives, building platforms for founders, and speaking to teams and leaders around the globe. King is the creator of innovative frameworks like TEAMS and leads transformative experiences through Accelerator, an immersive strategic coaching experience designed to drive meaningful change. His reputation is built on delivering insight without fluff, transformation without ego, and strategic thinking that helps leaders grow what matters most. Whether working with C-suite executives or emerging entrepreneurs, King brings the same commitment to practical wisdom and results-driven strategies that have made him a sought-after voice in leadership development and organizational transformation.

In this Macro Social Work Your Way episode, I sit down with Amy, a Micro to Macro Career Accelerator alum, to talk about her inspiring journey from case management into entrepreneurship and systems-level work.Amy shares how the Accelerator gave her more than just career coaching. She found confidence, clarity, and a clear vision for what she wanted her career and life to look like. From her experiences in child welfare and community mental health to moderating national conferences and launching her own business, Amy shows what is possible when social workers stop limiting themselves to traditional case management roles.You will hear about:✔️ Why not every macro career win looks like a new job, and how clarity itself can be a turning point.✔️ The transferable skills that social workers already have for macro social work roles.✔️ How life transitions, such as motherhood, relocation, or planning for the future can spark the right time to make a career change.✔️ The importance of understanding your strengths, values, and career purpose when planning your next career move.✔️ Whether you are a social worker feeling stuck in direct practice, curious about macro opportunities, or ready to build a career that matches your values, this episode will encourage you to think bigger about your path.The Micro to Macro Career Accelerator has helped more than 185 social workers move beyond case management into aligned, impactful, and higher-level roles in areas such as policy, philanthropy, research, and program design, just to name a few.

On this episode Gil Bashe welcomes Craig Martin—former acting CEO of Global Genes and founder/CEO of the Orphan Therapeutics Accelerator—about the urgent need to rescue clinically promising drugs for rare and ultra-rare diseases. Craig shares how his nonprofit model uses AI, CDMOs, CROs, and alternative funding to de-risk shelved therapies and transform them into treatments for patients with unmet needs. including context on systemic inequities and the human cost of stalled innovation. He describes a startling trend: when capital dries up or regulations shift, life-saving drug programs get shelved—not because of safety or efficacy issues, but due to dilution in business incentives. Among those left behind are rare disease candidates that patients and families know work, but simply become financially unviable. Martin joins us to unpack a pressing challenge in rare disease therapeutics: promising clinical‑stage drug programs that have been shelved—not for lack of science, but due to shifting capital and incentives. Through his nonprofit model at OTXL, he's pioneering an entirely new approach to rescue these assets and deliver real impact.

Forward thinking leaders know that fostering innovation, developing company culture and effective communication always starts at the top. This episode of the Forward Thinking Podcast features FCCS VP of Marketing and Communications Stephanie Barton and Tom Truitt, CEO of Horizon Farm Credit and winner of the FCCS 2024 Accelerator of the Year Award. Together, they define acceleration in the face of organizational change, consider what it takes to foster innovation from the top down, and discuss some of the valuable leadership lessons that Tom has learned over the years. He shares the importance of communication, the value of always keeping the why in mind, and the forward-thinking challenge that he poses for leaders today as well as in the future.    Episode Insights Include:   The spirit of growth and innovation  At Horizon, implementing processes and technology is all about adding value.  Focusing on the success of people is their core initiative.  Ask yourself – why should people want to do business with our company?  The go-to-market strategy will continue to change and require effective storytelling.    Defining acceleration in the face of organizational change The customers and market that companies are facing today is different from before.  Customers are more demanding than ever, and expect exceptional service.  Barriers when trying to accelerate change include complacency and risk-aversion.  AI is an additional acceleration that companies are working to navigate.    Valuable leadership lessons Tom has learned that not everyone is like him. Every person in an organization is on their own journey.  Everyone has different motivators, and each staff member deserves a personalized development plan.  Mentors play a critical role in career success.    Fostering innovation from the top down Communication is key in any success in life.  Getting any company moving forward requires communicating a vision.  Connect the dots from the work that you do to how it improves your customer's experience.  Communication takes consistent care and feeding every day.    Overcoming challenges in leadership Management changes, mergers and technology all create challenges.  Change allows opportunities to reset the vision.  Staying focused is easier when you see the wins.    Collaboration in the acceleration of progress Identify the benefits of each person's expertise.  Silo-busting is critical at every level, as is building internal trust.  Bringing the value down to the family farm is essential.  Understanding the why will benefit every level of the organization.    Creating culture  Fundamentally, culture represents how you treat each other and your customers.  Failing fast will help minimize the fear of failure.  Resources and time are essential to successful cultivation of culture.  Spend just as much time in the back office as you do in the front office.    This podcast is powered by FCCS.   Resources   Connect with Tom Truitt — Tom Truitt   Get in touch   info@fccsconsulting.com   “The biggest luxury we have is our success.” — Tom Truitt    “Everyone is not like me.

You're trying to eat healthier. You're on board with whole food plant-based eating - and maybe even excited about the way it could completely change your life.But when it's time to eat… it feels like something's missing.Maybe it's the texture. The nostalgia. Or just the feeling that dinner isn't "right" unless there's a meaty center on the plate.That's where fake meat sneaks in. It looks like the answer. It's familiar. Comfortable. "Close enough.”But here's the concern: If you're relying on fake meat to feel satisfied with your meals… it could be the very thing holding you back from feeling your best.In this episode, we're unpacking how we've all been conditioned to believe that "meat is the meal"—and how that belief can keep you stuck, sick, and feeling like plant-based eating just doesn't satisfy.Here's what you'll discover:✅ Why your brain craves something “meaty” ✅ How food marketing made you believe animal protein (or its imitation) must be the star of every plate✅ What to look for instead—and how to find real satisfaction with whole plant foods ✅ The Big Key that make plant-based eating not only doable—but joyfulYou'll walk away feeling empowered and inspired to ditch the fake stuff and find the satisfying meals that nourish your body PLUS taste absolutely amazing.What you're eating affects so much more than your plate—it touches your energy, your goals, and your ability to show up fully for the calling you've been given.✨ Ready to go deeper and make this lifestyle stick?

The Apollo Program achieved humanity's most significant technological leap through "orchestrated autonomy"—a hidden methodology for ecosystem velocity and optimization that modern government partnerships miss. Breakthrough insight? True innovation requires autonomous components working independently first, then strategic orchestration second. Lieutenant Colonel Russ Matijevich reveals why the government seeks integration before independence, thereby stifling the innovation it demands. Ecosystems thrive when stakeholders maintain autonomous excellence, then leaders orchestrate a strategic combination of diverse outputs—not when consensus-seeking destroys individual contribution. Paradigm Shifts:→ The Independence Paradox: Innovation ecosystems thrive when stakeholders are NOT dependent on each other but are rather aligned in mutual interest—Apollo succeeded through autonomous excellence vs consensus→ The Collective Intelligence Inversion: True "wisdom of crowds" is elevated with independent inputs; collaboration before individual contribution can collapse intelligence into groupthink→ The Commercial Viability Paradox: Government seeks technologies that don't depend on government funding—companies with independent commercial success become more attractive procurement targets→ The Efficiency Paradox: More budget creates less innovation—Apollo achieved the impossible on balanced budgets, while today's 6-7% GDP deficits yield diminishing returnsThe Innovation: Innovation ecosystems thrive through structural independence aligned by missions that matter—companies that aren't dependent on government contracts paradoxically become more attractive government buyers.Strategic Reframe: Shift from "How do we align interests?" to: "How do we orchestrate autonomous excellence for breakthrough innovation?"#EcosystemicFutures #InnovationParadox #StrategicTensionGuest: Russ Matijevich, Owner & CEO, Matijevich International Consulting | Retired USAF Lt.

If you're getting traffic but no inquiries, your marketing might not be the problem.   Too many business owners assume their message isn't working—when the real issue is buried in a sales process that's clunky, confusing, or full of friction. And the longer you try to fix the wrong thing, the more time, energy, and money you waste spinning your wheels.   In this episode of Running With Wolves, host Savannah Jordan shares a behind-the-scenes case study of one of her Accelerator clients—a brand and web designer—who thought she had a lead gen problem. But when they dug deeper, they discovered it was actually her sales process killing conversions. Savannah walks you through what they changed, why it worked, and how you can diagnose what's actually blocking sales in your business.   If this episode hit home—DM Savannah your questions on Instagram @itssavannahjordan or APPLY HERE to work with her.

Visit ⁠https://longevitybuilders.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠to discover the book and The Longevity Builder Health Lab.Key ConceptsThe Workshop Analogy: Knowledge requires tools. The Longevity Builder Health Lab is introduced as a digital "workshop" for health, inspired by his son's physical woodworking workshop.VO2 Max & Hazard Ratio: A low VO2 Max (your body's oxygen efficiency score) has a Hazard Ratio of 5.0—a 400% increased risk of premature death, making it the most powerful predictor of longevity.Hypoxic Training: This involves exercising in a low-oxygen environment that mimics high altitude, forcing your body to adapt and improve its oxygen efficiency.Shane uses analogies to simplify the benefits:Cardiovascular Overhaul: Your heart's main pumping chamber gets bigger, increasing its capacity (stroke volume). This lowers your resting heart rate. (Analogy: A standard car engine is swapped for a powerful V8.) Blood flow improves, stimulating Nitric Oxide production, which widens arteries and lowers blood pressure. (Analogy: A city planner widening roads.) HDL cholesterol increases, acting like a cleanup crew that removes plaque. (Analogy: An elite hazmat crew cleaning a toxic spill.)Metabolic Upgrade: Exercise creates an insulin-independent pathway for cells to absorb glucose, combating insulin resistance. (Analogy: A high-security building with a secret VIP back door for fuel deliveries.)Cellular Enhancements: Hypoxic training builds new, more efficient mitochondria (cellular power plants) and recycles old ones. (Analogy: A city upgrading its power grid.) It also increases red blood cells, enhancing oxygen transport. (Analogy: A logistics company upgrading its fleet of vans to semi-trucks.)Brain Health: The process releases BDNF ("Miracle-Gro for the brain"), which supports neuron growth and connections. It also improves deep, restorative sleep, during which the brain flushes out toxins. (Analogy: A library's A-Team and an elite overnight restoration crew.)Shane ends with a powerful personal story about his father, who died at 46 from a preventable heart attack, and emphasizes the importance of a personal "why" for building longevity. He encourages listeners to find an altitude exercise class and visit longevitybuilders.com for a free tracking tool.The Science Behind the UpgradeThe Final Message

Savannah's Accelerator client inquired about working with Savannah Jordan in June of last year—and then sat on it for almost 12 months. Why? Fear. Of spending the money. Of it not working. Of betting on herself.   In this episode of Running With Wolves, Savannah walks you through what changed, what clicked, and what happened once this client finally went all in. She shares the exact three strategy shifts that took her from months of silence to $108K in sales in just two weeks—and how you can implement those same shifts now.   Apply HERE to learn the exact playbook that rebuilt her pipeline and created her highest cash month ever.

We're excited to bring you a special cross-over episode from our friends at the 'Think Fast, Talk Smart' podcast. Host Matt Abrahams joined us and recorded this live session at the Stanford Seed Transformation Network Summit in Cape Town, exploring the authentic communication strategies that every entrepreneur needs to master.Real connection means understanding your audience, staying true to yourself, and creating space for others.How do you communicate who you are, what you stand for, and leave space for others to do the same? At the Stanford Seed Summit in Cape Town, South Africa, three Stanford Graduate School of Business professors explored why real connection is built through authentic communication.For Jesper Sørensen, authentic organizational communication means talking about a business in ways customers or investors can understand, like using analogies to relate a new business model to one that people already know. For incoming GSB Dean Sarah Soule, authentic communication is about truth, not trends. Her research on "corporate confession" shows that companies build trust when they admit their shortcomings — but only if those admissions connect authentically to their core business. And for Christian Wheeler, authentic communication means suspending judgment of ourselves and others. “We have a tendency to rush to categorization, to assume that we understand things before we really do,” he says. “Get used to postponing judgment.”In this special live episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, host Matt Abrahams and his panel of guests explore communication challenges for budding entrepreneurs. From the risks of comparing yourself to competitors to how your phone might undermine genuine connection, they reveal how authentic communication — whether organizational or personal — requires understanding your audience, staying true to your values, and creating space for others to be heard.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ever feel like your toy or game idea is too niche or catch yourself wondering if you've really got what it takes to break into the industry? Maybe you've been sitting on a killer concept, or you're already knee-deep in prototypes and second guesses.In this episode of Making It in the Toy Industry, I'm chatting with TCA alum and current Accelerator student Manish Punani, who proves that with the right guidance and a whole lot of passion, even the most unexpected game themes can find their place in the market. Manish shares his journey from working in merchandising to launching Cricket or Nothing, a suspense-filled, strategy card game that turns the classic sport of cricket into a brainy, poker-like duel. You'll hear why he walked away from his first concept and instead went all in on cricket.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Dr. Jacob Goodin - https://www.drjacobgoodin.com/cscs-acceleratorEver feel overwhelmed by energy systems, wondering why your clients need to know about ATP or glycolysis? Dr. Jacob Goodin cuts through the complexity to reveal how bioenergetics knowledge transforms your coaching from guesswork to precision-guided results.The conversation begins with a clear breakdown of our three energy systems: the phosphagen system (lightning-fast but brief), glycolytic system (moderate speed and capacity), and oxidative system (slow but virtually unlimited). Dr. Goodin explains how these systems work in concert—not isolation—to fuel everything from explosive jumps to marathon runs. What makes this discussion particularly valuable is how he translates complex physiology into practical coaching insights.Perhaps most eye-opening is the myth-busting around the "fat burning zone." While lower-intensity exercise does use a higher percentage of fat for fuel, Goodin clarifies why this approach isn't optimal for fat loss: "The most time efficient way to lose fat is to build muscle and do higher intensity exercise." This single insight could transform how you approach conditioning for weight management clients.The podcast delivers golden nuggets about programming structure, explaining why putting cardio at the beginning of a workout compromises force production and hypertrophy gains. We learn why power and skill work should come first, strength second, accessory movements third, and conditioning last—a sequence backed by physiology rather than tradition.What separates this conversation from typical fitness content is its balance between science and application. Goodin doesn't just explain what happens in the Krebs cycle; he shows how understanding these processes helps you design better work-to-rest ratios, choose appropriate modalities for different clients, and create training sessions that satisfy clients while delivering results.ReaWant to ask us a question?
