When we think about digital tools and technology, we think of them as moving fast. Katie Drasser, CEO of Rock Health, joins me to discuss what a “slow tech” approach to health innovation could look like. It would ground innovation in participatory design, build community trust and aim for long term impact, not just rapid scaling.We discuss:How she's working to fix the broken investment cycle for women's healthWhy impact—not just return—should guide the future of health innovationThe big differentiator for youth mental health companies? Kids are at the table Katie reminds us that designing for the most overlooked ends up helping everyone:“There's that theory – the curb cut theory – [that says] if you design for the most marginalized, if you design for the most overlooked, it's actually better for everybody. And so… how might we design for those most left out?

Interview with Caedmon Marriott, Managing Director of Western Mines GroupOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/western-mines-asxwmg-building-australias-next-major-nickel-resource-6328Recording date: 28th July 2025Western Mines Group presents a compelling investment opportunity in the nickel sector, combining world-class resource scale with strategic market positioning as the commodity establishes a price floor. The company's Mulga Tank project near Kalgoorlie hosts Australia's largest nickel sulfide deposit, containing 5.3 million tons of nickel across a nearly 2 billion ton resource with 0.27% nickel grades. This positions Western Mines among the world's top 10 nickel deposits by contained metal.The investment thesis centers on three key pillars: exceptional resource quality, strategic timing, and significant exploration upside. The deposit demonstrates superior metallurgical characteristics with four times the sulfur content of comparable Canadian projects and grades 25% higher than peer operations. This sulfur-to-nickel ratio approaching pentlandite composition, combined with enrichment in chalcophile and platinum group elements, supports enhanced processing efficiency and recovery rates. The company's conservative approach using a 0.2% nickel cutoff—double the threshold employed by many competitors—demonstrates disciplined resource estimation practices.Market dynamics strongly favor Western sulfide producers like Western Mines. The nickel price has established a durable floor at $15,000 per ton, with Managing Director Caedmon Marriott noting that "absolutely nobody is making money at these prices," including large-scale Indonesian and Chinese producers. This supply discipline, combined with robust demand growth of 6-7% annually in stainless steel and over 10% in defense applications, creates favorable conditions for price recovery. The battery sector maintains 25-30% growth trajectories in Western markets, supporting long-term structural demand.Environmental regulations are creating additional advantages for Western producers. European battery passport requirements mandate detailed CO2 accounting, with nickel representing 30-35% of an electric vehicle's carbon budget. Western Mines' sulfide operation positions it at the bottom of the CO2 intensity curve, benefiting from increasing preference for "green nickel" and supply chain security considerations as buyers diversify away from Chinese-controlled Indonesian operations.The exploration upside provides significant optionality beyond the established resource. Recent drilling has identified 91 occurrences of massive sulfide evidence, including large immiscible sulfide globules described as "tennis ball-sized." This statistical abundance across limited drilling suggests a substantial massive sulfide system at depth. If Western Mines delineates a "Perseverance-style" deposit of 50 million tons at 2% nickel, it would dramatically accelerate development timelines and enhance project economics. Such a discovery would transform the project from a large-scale, low-grade operation into a hybrid system capable of supporting both high-grade standalone developments and integrated large-scale processing.Operational advantages include Western Australia's stable jurisdiction with established mining infrastructure and government support through exploration incentive schemes totaling $220,000 in recent grants. The deposit's shallow nature, with mineralization beginning at 50-60 meters below surface, and anticipated low strip ratios under 2:1 support cost-effective mining scenarios. The modular development approach, potentially scaling from 10 million to 40 million tons annually, offers risk-managed capital deployment.Current drilling programs focus on resource extension and massive sulfide targeting, with results expected to feed into metallurgical testing and scoping studies in early 2025. Western Mines represents a rare opportunity to access a world-class nickel asset at attractive valuations while the sector remains distressed, positioning investors for significant revaluation as market fundamentals improve and the energy transition accelerates demand for critical battery materials.View Western Mines Group's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/western-mines-groupSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

"We're seeing a return to seasonality. Before the pandemic, when we had mass tourism, the low seasons were being filled out by China and other markets. But there are also global issues at play as well." It's been a turbulent year for Thailand, with slow economic growth, political stasis, an unresolved US tariff rate and a military conflict with Cambodia. Meanwhile, mountains of media stories dissect what Thai tourism is/isn't doing to arrest slowing visitor arrivals. So what's the real story beneath the headlines and top-line statistics? This week, Gary and Hannah are joined by Phuket-based Bill Barnett, Managing Director of C9 Hotelworks and a renowned hospitality and real estate advisor and tourism expert to deconstruct Thailand's shifting travel landscape. We discuss the untapped potential of Thailand's unique geographies, the need for masterplanned investment in travel infrastructure and tourism services, and the quest to "get beyond the beach and shopping malls". Plus, is frequent re-forecasting of Chinese arrivals creating unnecessary negativity? How are an economic slowdown and high debt levels reshaping domestic tourism behaviours? How can Thailand leverage its strengths in wellness tourism ("everyone is trying to reinvent the spa")? Is hotel profitability set to slow, and what will be the impacts of new supply pipelines and "a price-driven recovery"? Looking forward, Bill discusses how his company supports the training of a next generation of hospitality leaders and the empowering of more women to succeed in tourism leadership roles.

“There are those individual actions that we can take. But if I can work with my community or work inside of my company, or if I can work inside of my house of worship and we can build some community and some action that way, it will have a much bigger impact than anything that I can do as an individual… The communities that they're already a part of, whether they're residential, like in their neighborhoods, or it's the nonprofits that they're a part of, or the places where they have other kinds of communities like religious communities, and start conversations there. What could we do as a community? What could we do as an organization?” Laur Hesse Fisher on Electric Ladies Podcast It's easy to feel powerless as political forces try to dismantle sustainability-climate-clean energy initiatives, levers and economics, BUT we can make a difference anyway. And it matters. Small steps add up. Impact matters. There are steps each of us can take individually to help avert climate change. How? Listen to Laur Hesse Fisher of MIT's Environmental Solutions Initiative and TIL Climate podcast, in this discussion with Electric Ladies host Joan Michelson that aired last year and is more relevant than ever. Laur explains how we can leverage the things we do now, the places we already go, and people we currently talk to and make a difference that way. You'll hear about: Why reaching people outside the climate-tuned bubble is critical. How we can leverage the relationships we already have, the local media, and local events to make a bigger difference than we can make on our own. Why voting is so crucial this year – and not for the reasons you might have heard Plus, insightful career advice, such as… “My advice would be, as you're thinking about where you want to go, talk to people about that. So you might not know where you want to go, in which case I recommend informational interviews. Those are great for learning about other people's career paths, what it took for them to get there, what did they learn along the way? I mean, people are really open to having a half an hour conversation.” Laur Hesse Fisher on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here too.

Kyle de Bruin is Managing Director at Leesman where he is passionate about measuring and analyzing the experiences of employees in their places of work. Mike Petrusky asks Kyle about how high-performance offices deliver a great employee experience and they review lessons learned from the past five years of workplace change. The lack of variety in office design is a significant challenge, as employees are staying at their desks due to the increased use of video calls and the need for private conversations. Kyle believes that the facility management and corporate real estate industry is data-rich but insights-poor, so he hopes AI advancements can help organize and analyze unstructured data. The value of real estate assets should not solely be measured by occupancy rates and workplace leaders need to focus on creating spaces where employees can focus and be productive, so Mike and Kyle offer the advice and inspiration you need to be a Workplace Innovator!

Asian stocks slipped after a flat session on Wall Street, as investors stayed cautious amid a week packed with economic data and corporate earnings. The MSCI Asia-Pacific gauge dropped 0.7%, a third consecutive day of decline. The dollar steadied Tuesday after climbing the most since May in the prior session. The S&P 500 briefly topped 6,400, but closed little changed. Oil held its gain after President Donald Trump pushed for Russia to reach a swift truce with Ukraine or face potential economic penalties. We talk markets with Vance Howard, CEO and Portfolio Manager at Howard Capital Management. Plus - Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick says a 90-day extension of a trade truce with China was a likely outcome with negotiations between the two countries underway in Stockholm. Lutnick's comments followed the start of a new round of talks between the world's two largest economies - this time in Stockholm, where Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent led the respective delegations. Earlier rounds saw Washington and Beijing agree to reduce tit-for-tat levies and ease export controls on certain technology and rare-earth minerals, easing tensions that had rattled financial markets as Trump moves to enact a sweeping tariff agenda.

What if everything you've been told about healthcare is backward? Dr. Leland Stillman joins Scott Ford to reveal how modern medicine has become an ascension marketing model – starting with inexpensive prescriptions before gradually escalating to costly procedures, all while failing to address the foundations of true health.For busy professionals and entrepreneurs, this broken system presents unique challenges. When you're juggling responsibilities and operating on tight schedules, you need healthcare that respects your time while addressing root causes, not just symptoms. Dr. Stillman shares his revolutionary approach to simplifying complex health information while maintaining a comprehensive perspective – what he calls focusing on the "low-hanging fruit" before pursuing specialized interventions.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when exploring the critical importance of light exposure. As humans evolved under natural sunlight, our bodies depend on specific light frequencies found in sunshine. Modern artificial lighting lacks the beneficial infrared spectrum present in natural light, correlating with increasing rates of chronic diseases. Contrary to popular belief, appropriate sun exposure actually associates with lower mortality rates across numerous studies.For those seeking optimal health, Dr. Stillman recommends three fundamental areas: working with a qualified provider who monitors key biomarkers (including hemoglobin A1C, ferritin, DHEA, CRP, vitamin D, and omega-3 levels), getting adequate natural light exposure, and ensuring proper darkness during sleep hours. These simple yet powerful approaches align with our biological rhythms and support cellular energy production, hormone regulation, and metabolic health.As Dr. Stillman powerfully states, "If you do not consciously make time for your wellness, you will be forced to make time for your illness."

Interview with Jeff Quartermaine, Managing Director & CEO of Perseus Mining Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/perseus-mining-asxpru-african-gold-producer-targets-25m-ounces-over-five-years-7295Recording date: 25th July 2025Perseus Mining's June 2025 quarter results demonstrate the compelling investment case for this African-focused gold producer, with cash and bullion balances reaching $827 million on continued operational excellence. The company delivered 121,237 ounces during the quarter at all-in sustaining costs of $1,417 per ounce, generating substantial margins of $1,560 per ounce at current gold prices. This performance extends Perseus's track record of consistent operational delivery across its three African mines, with full-year production of 496,551 ounces at $1,235 per ounce costs.The company's financial strength provides a solid foundation for growth initiatives while supporting shareholder returns. Perseus has consistently beaten its own cost guidance over multiple years, demonstrating disciplined capital allocation and operational efficiency. CEO Jeff Quartermaine's conservative guidance approach has resulted in the company regularly delivering below the bottom end of cost ranges, building credibility with investors seeking reliable performers in the volatile mining sector.Perseus's growth trajectory centers on the Nyanzaga project in Tanzania, scheduled for January 2027 production startup. Recent drilling results show spectacular intercepts that could significantly extend mine life beyond the current 11-year projection, with potential underground development adding substantial value. The company's five-year outlook demonstrates sustainable production above 500,000 ounces annually, dispelling concerns about production declines.The investment appeal extends beyond operations to strategic positioning. Perseus's diversified African portfolio provides exposure to underexplored geology while management's proven track record of community engagement and government relations mitigates jurisdiction risks. The company's dynamic hedging strategy offers downside protection while preserving upside exposure in the current favorable gold price environment. With strong cash generation, disciplined cost management, and multiple growth catalysts, Perseus Mining presents a compelling opportunity for investors seeking exposure to a well-managed, growing gold producer positioned to capitalize on sustained precious metals demand.—View Perseus Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/perseus-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The video game sector continues to impress. One of the biggest players in our sector has recorded another stellar year, reporting $105 million in revenue for the year to September 2024, up from $83.4 million the previous year. Grinding Gear Games, out of West Auckland, is behind the multiplayer online fantasy game Path of Exile. Managing Director Jonathan Rogers told Mike Hosking they're probably doing better than average, having nailed their formula. Path of Exile is a service game, which is designed to be continuously updated over a longer period of time, which he says creates reoccurring revenue and an ongoing draw for players. Rogers says that people will play until they have their fill and go on to do something else, before a new release pulls them back in again.

The National Pension Helpline has this morning launched the first ever online pension comparison platform in Ireland, which tracks the performance of hundreds of pension funds. The Irish Pension Fund Explorer is a free comparison tool with real-time data on 597 pension funds, aimed at promoting transparency within the industry and allowing people to make better investment decisions. The searchable database can be used to compare each fund's growth, risk exposure, where their assets are located, and the holding companies involved. It provides clear comparisons between two or more funds with interactive graphs and charts, allowing savers to view multiple funds' value and performance side by side, as well as other key stats such as management fees. Irish Pension Fund Data Resource Various funds from the same pension provider can also be pitted against each other to compare how each fund is faring, with users being able to toggle between different timeframes to get a clear picture of performance over time. There are ten significant pension fund operators in Ireland: Zurich, Irish Life, Aviva, New Ireland, Standard Life, Mercer, Acorn, Royal London, BOI and AIB. Those wishing to invest have needed to go to each provider individually or ask a broker to help them compare funds - whereas the Pension Fund Explorer allows people to view every portfolio from every provider available in Ireland in one location. The tool is free and no registration or personal details are required, giving everyone equal access to the data. Speaking at the launch, James Dorrian, Managing Director of the National Pension Helpline, said: "This new platform is a major milestone in making the pension industry more transparent and easier for the public to navigate the hundreds of funds that are available. "The National Pension Helpline was set up out of frustration for how hard it is for the average person in Ireland to get the information they need when it comes to investing in their pension. "This first-of-its-kind public resource allows users to compare the performance, asset allocations and risk profiles of hundreds of individual pension funds. "We believe that this data should be freely available without people having to trudge through and compare hundreds of documents, and the Fund Explorer enables people to compare every fund under one roof. "Investing in the wrong fund can cost you in retirement, and similarly, smart investments have a compounding effect which means that even monthly contributions can grow into a substantial pension pot in the future. "We make no claims that past performance can predict future outcomes, however, our independently sourced data can certainly give people a taste of how each fund is performing against other funds, either from the same provider or different providers."

In this new episode of Proyecto 1954, Enrique Perret, Managing Director of the US-Mexico Foundation, sits down with Dror Bar-Ziv — a USMexico360 alumnus, hedge fund manager, and business leader actively building community and networks in the Washington, D.C. area. Dror reflects on his recent experience in Mexico City as part of the USMexico360 program, a week-long immersion organized by the US-Mexico Foundation in partnership with Meridian International Center. During his visit, Dror had the opportunity to engage with policymakers, business leaders, and civil society organizations — all while major policy developments unfolded, including the announcement of new U.S. tariffs on Mexican goods. These moments offered a rare look at the Mexican perspective, prompting deep conversations on how U.S. domestic policies ripple across borders, and how we might better connect, collaborate, and integrate as a North American region. Beyond his experience with USMexico360, Dror also shares how his broader relationship with the Foundation — including events like the Meridian Ball Pre-Ball Ambassador Dinner hosted by Enrique and his wife — has deepened his interest and understanding of U.S.-Mexico ties beyond tourism. From business and government to civil society and diplomacy, he discusses the importance of building bridges that go far beyond trade. This episode is a thoughtful look at how young leaders are shaping the future of bilateral relations, one meaningful exchange at a time.

How to Build a Fundable, Scalable Business: Expert Insights from Nicholas Spezio of Exbo GroupIn the world of startups and high-growth companies, raising capital is often seen as a major milestone. But what happens after the money hits your account? In this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, Nicholas Spezio, Managing Director at Exbo Group, shares his expertise on how founders can build a scalable business, manage finances effectively, and position themselves for growth or a successful exit. Drawing from his experience advising venture-backed and private equity-backed companies, Nicholas outlines the key steps for building a solid financial foundation, attracting investment, and preparing for long-term success.Building a Strong Financial Foundation for Scalable GrowthNicholas emphasizes the importance of establishing strong financial controls and infrastructure early in the business lifecycle. While many founders focus on product development and growth, overlooking the financial aspect can be a costly mistake when it's time to raise more capital or pursue an exit strategy. Implementing proper bookkeeping, creating financial models for forecasting, and maintaining internal controls will give you a clear picture of your business's health, ensuring that you can confidently manage your operations, attract investment, and avoid potential financial pitfalls.In addition to financial controls, customer retention is critical to long-term success. Nicholas explains that retaining existing customers is more cost-effective than constantly acquiring new ones, making customer loyalty a key focus for investors. He also advises diversifying revenue streams and customer bases to reduce reliance on a single source of income or a few major clients. By doing so, business owners can enhance resilience, improve profitability, and make their business more attractive to potential investors or acquirers.Lastly, Nicholas underscores the importance of preparing for due diligence well in advance. Thinking like an investor and addressing potential issues before they arise can significantly increase the value of your company. By focusing on financial transparency, operational efficiency, and diversifying your revenue streams, you will be in a stronger position for future growth and to attract investment or an exit strategy when the time comes.About Nicholas SpezioNicholas Spezio is the Managing Director at Exbo Group, a financial advisory firm specializing in helping startups and growth companies build strong financial infrastructures, scale effectively, and prepare for investment or acquisition.
