Larry Weber wraps up February and talks about what's ahead in the unpredictable month of March
Industrial systems are responsible for 75% of global emissions, yet only a quarter of climate-focused VC money flows into them. Not because investors don't care — but because these systems are hard. They're interconnected. Capital-intensive. Slow-moving. Technically dense. And deeply under-innovated.Almanac Ventures is built to change that.In this episode of the EUVC Podcast, Andreas Munk Holm sits down with Jo Slota-Newson and Marc Sabas, co-founders of Almanac Ventures — a new European seed and pre-seed deep tech fund laser-focused on unlocking decarbonisation in industrial systems through scientific breakthroughs and commercial discipline.This is a pitch episode — a chance for the EUVC LP & GP community to hear directly what Almanac stands for, how they invest, and why the next decade of industrial innovation will be shaped by specialist deep tech funds with true scientific and financial edge.Here's what's covered:00:49 | What Almanac Ventures is — a European seed/pre-seed deep-tech fund backing scientific breakthroughs applied to industrial systems01:31 | The founding team — Jo's nanoscience PhD + 18 years commercialising deep tech, Marc's finance → CVC → impact VC journey (and Jo's 37km Channel swim)03:52 | The complementary edge — technical rigor meets financial/commercial structuring, evidenced through 45 investments and a 2.3× MOIC track record05:22 | The industrial innovation gap — 75% of emissions come from industry, yet only ~25% of climate VC targets it (because the systems are hard, complex, and interconnected)06:11 | Why industry is ripe for deep-tech disruption — 20th-century inefficiencies, high value pools, and the need for performance + cost + decarb together10:17 | “Deep tech works for venture—if you know where to look” — how to identify capex-efficient, scalable industrial technologies vs. science projects that need different capital12:25 | Case study: Hot Green — a new compressor architecture enabling industrial heat pumps for 200–400°C processes (F&B, manufacturing) with electrification upside13:49 | Case study: ReClinker — Cambridge spinout recycling cement inside steel arc furnaces, piggybacking heat, removing the CO₂-heavy chemistry step15:19 | Do you need to be an operator to invest in deep tech? — why complementary experience (science + venture + corporate + some ops) beats any single “must-have”18:35 | Investment strategy — first-check investor at TRL 4–7, pan-Europe, €300k–€1M tickets, aiming for a 25–30 company portfolio with follow-on capacity

Every other movie seems to be touted as a “tour de force”--but Philip Barantini's 2021 look at ninety minutes in the life of a chef and everyone around him really earns that praise. The entire film was shot in one take, not to be “original,” but because doing so reflects the tension and stress of the whole enterprise: a restaurant, like a film, is a complicated ecosystem in which personalities, hang-ups, failures, and backstories collide. Join us for a conversation about how the restaurant is, like so many of our jobs, a petri dish in which radically different people are placed and forced to coexist. Sometimes, things get ugly. Incredible bumper music by John Deley. Adam Reiner's The New Rules of Dining Out explains how restaurants work and complements the film like a Cabernet Sauvignon does a steak.

Larry runs the numbers after a big downfall of snow and sleet
The average estimated words-per-minute in a feature film is 90; His Girl Friday (1940) clocks in at 240. And yet the fast dialogue is only one of its many fascinations. Everything about it perfectly lands: the script, the casting, the camerawork, the minor players–all contribute to what can be called, without the kind of hyperbole found in the Morning Post, a perfect film. It's as cynical as Network yet as joyful as Singin' in the Rain and skewers the news-tainment complex with an affection for its perpetrators. Join us for an appreciation for one of the best. Incredible bumper music by John Deley. Admirers of the film will enjoy this beautifully designed book edition of the original screenplay, in which the original dialogue from the film is reproduced complete with an accompanying commentary.

Larry Weber follows a mole and keeps us up to date on the outdoor happenings this February
Real estate has gone through a painful reset—higher rates, lower values, and slower deal activity have pressured fundraising, distributions, and exit timelines. But for investors who provide flexible, platform-level capital, dislocation can create attractive entry points. Meanwhile, AI and data centers are reshaping demand, housing affordability remains a structural challenge, and the office segment is still under strain. On this episode of Disruptive Forces, host Anu Rajakumar speaks with David Haltiner, Managing Director at Neuberger's Almanac Realty Investors, which is marking 30 years of company-level real estate investing. They discuss how platform recapitalizations work, where the team is leaning in across sectors, and what investors may be overlooking in today's market.

Twentieth Century (1934) is a screwball comedy that moves like a runaway train and we are delightfully tied to the tracks. John Barrymore's audacious performance as director Oscar Jaffee is awe-inspiring; Carole Lombard is equal to the task of pushing back against the man who, in a sense, created her. It's Frankenstein meets His Girl Friday; it's ninety minutes of screaming and yelling; it's filled with as many coincidences as a Wodehouse novel; it's a great portrait of theatrical types; and it's laugh-out-loud funny from the first scene to the last. Join us for a ride! Incredible bumper music by John Deley. Michael Morrison's John Barrymore, Shakespearean Actor tells the story of Barrymore's triumphs as Hamlet and Richard III, which informed his performance as the overly-dramatic Oscar Jaffee.
