A question we've been hearing a lot at the All Things Sustainable podcast is: How do businesses sync their climate strategies with their financial decisions?    In this episode, we bring you highlights from an event that dove into this question in detail: The inaugural S&P Global Sustainable1 Climate Summit hosted by the S&P Global Climate Center of Excellence.   The center is home to world-class scientists dedicated to addressing the frontiers of long-term climate, environmental and nature research and methodology development. The June 5 Climate Summit in New York City convened many of those scientists alongside financial institutions and industry leaders to talk about translating climate science into actionable insights that inform investment and financial decision-making.  In today's episode we talk to three speakers from the Summit:   -Dr. Terence Thompson, the Chief Science Officer at the S&P Global Climate Center of Excellence; he explains the center's work and how it seeks to bridge gaps between stakeholders, including climate scientists, economists and financial institutions.   -Sonja Gibbs, Managing Director and Head of Sustainable Finance at the Institute for International Finance, a global network of financial institutions; she explains how IIF members are thinking about climate risks and opportunities.  -Aniket Shah, Managing Director and Global Head of the Sustainability and Transition Strategy team at Jefferies Group; he tells us why financial decision-makers need “data, not vibes” to drive their sustainability strategies.   Listen to recent podcast interviews referenced in today's episode:    Why businesses are going ‘back to basics' in sustainability strategies | S&P Global  How HSBC is financing infrastructure for a low-carbon economy | S&P Global  How EU proposals could change the sustainability reporting landscape | S&P Global  Learn more about the Climate Center of Excellence | S&P Global  This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1, a part of S&P Global.    Copyright ©2025 by S&P Global             DISCLAIMER     By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

From lab curiosity to commercial reality. Here's what happens when moss meets the brutal economics of bioprocessing.In Part 1, you've heard the science behind moss-based protein production. Now comes the real test: Can it survive the gauntlet of regulatory scrutiny, cost pressures, and manufacturing scale-up that crushes most biotech innovations?In Part 2 of this groundbreaking conversation, David Brühlmann and Andreas Schaaf, Managing Director and CSO of Eleva, dive into the nuts and bolts of what it actually takes to commercialize a revolutionary production platform. Andreas doesn't just theorize—he's lived through 15+ years of transforming Eleva from startup concept to clinical-stage reality, navigating every regulatory hurdle and economic challenge along the way.Three game-changing advantages that caught our attention:Process Robustness That Actually Works: While CHO cells throw tantrums over minor parameter shifts, moss maintains consistent product quality even when your bioprocess isn't behaving perfectly; a lifeline for manufacturing teams dealing with real-world variability.Economics That Make CFOs Smile: Forget expensive viral filtration steps and costly human pathogen testing. Moss's plant heritage eliminates these animal-system burdens, directly impacting your bottom line in ways that matter.Operational Simplicity: Variability in process ingredients and streamlined cell banking contribute to long-term cost and operational efficiencies that compound over time.Andreas shares hard-won insights about what it really takes to challenge entrenched bioprocessing orthodoxy, including the regulatory conversations, the economic realities, and his advice for scientists brave enough to pursue game-changing innovations.Ready to understand how disruptive biotechnology actually makes it from bench to bedside?Connect with Andreas Schaaf:LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/andreas-schaaf-b3797716Website: www.elevabiologics.comNext step:Book a free consultation to help you get started on any questions you may have about bioprocessing analytics: https://bruehlmann-consulting.com/callDevelop bioprocessing technologies better, faster, at a fraction of the cost with our 1:1 Strategy Call: The quickest and easiest way to excel biotech technology development.

What if your growth path wasn't adding more clients, but working fewer, higher-quality roles with people who genuinely value your service? Allicia Birch, founder of 4tify Recruitment, built a six-figure recruitment firm in her first year — without cold calls, without compromising on fees, and without chasing every job. Her success came down to discipline: working to a structured 12-hour day in 15-minute blocks, building a reputation-based BD strategy, and walking away from bad-fit clients. You'll hear how she transformed underperformance into consistent high billings, created multi-division revenue from single clients, and productised her approach to business development — including how she sells high-ticket projects, runs invite-only roundtables, and uses market intelligence to position herself as a trusted partner, not just a vendor. 4tify is based in Manchester and specializes in construction industry recruitment. After 8 years in the industry, Allicia has become a leading voice in the residential new build market. Episode Highlights [03:20] How she struggled during the first three years with plenty of lessons [14:11] Breakdown to Breakthrough - turning things around from 250k to 350k billings [20:25] What inspired the launch of 4tify [26:10] Key success factors in the first 12 months of business [35:19] Her idea of a cold call - how she does BD without 'cold calling' [44:26] Best practices on being organized and creating a Day Plan [48:30] How market intelligence helps provide custom-fit solutions to clients [58:21] The round-table engagement strategy [1:03:04] What's next for the team Key Takeaways Training Makes the Difference: Her first three years brought zero earnings until proper training at Anderson James turned everything around. A breakthrough coaching session helped her jump from struggling to billing £250,000–£350,000 per year. Client Selection Strategy: "If you're trying to beat me down to 10%, I'm not your recruiter. I don't get out of bed for that." She only works with clients who respect her values, turning down low-fee roles and walking away from companies that don't align. Daily Structure: Speaks to 30 people per day (150 per week) - all warm calls through referrals Plans the day in 15-minute increments the night before at 9 PM Works closest to money first: live processes, then candidates, then client development Uses Excel spreadsheets with checkboxes and color coordination Market Intelligence: Uses reputational analysis to provide custom-fit solutions to each client. Her genuine, relationship-first approach thrives on meaningful partnerships – no cold calling, just honest conversations and deep understanding of what makes great teams work. About Allicia Birch Allicia Birch is the Managing Director of 4tify, a specialist recruitment company with 8 years in the industry, though it didn't start easily.

Today we're excited to welcome Patrick White, Group Lead for Fusion Energy Safety and Regulation at the Clean Air Task Force (CATF), and Nicholas McMurray, Managing Director of International and Nuclear Policy at ClearPath. Patrick recently joined CATF and leads the organization's international working group focused on fusion energy safety, waste, and non-proliferation. He holds a Ph.D. in Nuclear Science and Engineering from MIT and previously served as Research Director at the Nuclear Innovation Alliance. Niko is an expert in industrial policy, nuclear energy policy, and regulation. He has been with ClearPath since 2019 and formerly served as a Materials Engineer at the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). A few weeks ago, Veriten partnered with CATF and ClearPath to publish a paper calling out reforms to NRC processes and procedures to accelerate the deployment of new nuclear reactors; establishing a more efficient regulatory framework for new and advanced reactors (paper linked here). We were thrilled to host Patrick and Niko for a discussion on the paper and broader trends in the nuclear landscape. Brett Rampal, Senior Director of Nuclear and Power Strategy at Veriten, joined for the conversation and led Veriten's contribution to the paper. In our discussion, Patrick and Niko share background on their organizations' missions and long-standing support for nuclear. We explore the need to demystify and modernize NRC processes to accommodate next-generation nuclear technologies, challenges with current regulatory frameworks originally designed for traditional large light-water reactors, the role of licensing structures and the value of more flexible licensing pathways, and the motivation behind their recent paper, which aims to provide actionable, bipartisan policy suggestions to enable nuclear deployment at scale. We examine the historical development and regulatory evolution of power versus non-power reactor definitions, how those distinctions have blurred over time, the shift toward performance-based regulation, and the commercial implications of licensing small reactors under Class 103. We discuss the importance of consistent terminology and regulatory clarity in advancing new nuclear technologies, whether the NRC's internal culture can evolve to support faster deployment without compromising safety, the NRC's broader oversight role beyond reactors including medical and industrial applications of radioactive materials, and congressional support for NRC modernization. Patrick and Niko provide insights into international regulatory approaches, such as performance-based models used in the UK, France, and Canada, the critical need to earn public trust through rigorous and efficient safety regulation, the feasibility of President Trump's goal of having 10 new reactors under construction by 2030, challenges beyond regulation, and much more. We greatly enjoyed the conversation. To start the show, Mike Bradley noted that the S&P 500 closed modestly lower on the day, while crude oil prices caught a bid amid escalating tensions in the Mideast. On the bond front, the 10-year bond yield (~4.4%) has pulled back over the last few days as markets await the outcome of the June 18th FOMC rate decision meeting. Consensus is for no change in interest rates at this FOMC meeting, but a cut is expected at the September meeting. From a crude oil market standpoint, WTI price has spiked by >$10/bbl to ~$74/bbl over the last five trading days due to the Iranian-Israeli military conflict. While Veriten isn't in the business of making short-term crude oil price calls based on supply disruption threats, we continue to emphasize that global oil demand growth projections are a more vital determinant for intermediate-term oil prices. On the global S/D front, the IEA recently modeled global oil demand peaking in 2029 (China in 2027), contra

Recorded live at the ASU GSV Summit in San Diego, this episode of The Disagreement Podcast tackles the pressing question: Is college still worth it? Host Alex Grodd moderates a dynamic debate between higher education experts Dr. Bridget Burns, CEO of the University Innovation Alliance, and Ryan Craig, Managing Director at Achieve Partners and author of Apprentice Nation. Together, they unpack whether the traditional college model delivers economic and societal value in today's economy, or if shorter, skills-based alternatives like apprenticeships offer a better path. The discussion dives into ROI, workforce readiness, and the need for institutional reform, with Burns defending college's broader societal benefits and Craig advocating for "earn and learn" pathways to address employability gaps.With sharp insights, personal anecdotes, and a candid exchange of ideas, this episode challenges assumptions about higher education's role in a rapidly changing world. From the alarming statistic that only a quarter of college matriculants achieve their desired job outcomes to the call for integrating work-based learning into curricula, Burns and Craig offer compelling perspectives. A lively “steel man” exercise caps the debate, showcasing their ability to articulate each other's arguments. This episode is a must-listen for parents, students, and educators grappling with the future of post-secondary education.Key Takeaways:College's economic ROI is under scrutiny, with nearly half of students not completing degrees and over half of graduates underemployed.Societal benefits of college, like critical thinking and civic engagement, remain vital but must be balanced with better employment outcomes.Apprenticeships and work-based learning offer viable alternatives, though they may limit long-term career flexibility.Higher education needs reform to align curricula with workforce demands, especially in the AI-driven economy.The debate highlights the need for diverse, adaptable educational pathways rather than a one-size-fits-all model.“College is not a monolith, and it is a very individual choice, and we have to do a far better job actually helping people be successful with it.” – Dr. Bridget BurnsLearn more about the UIA by visiting:WebsiteLinkedInTwitterYouTubeFacebookThis week's episode is sponsored by Mainstay, a student retention and engagement tool where you can increase student and staff engagement with the only platform consistently proven to boost engagement, retention, and wellbeing.

Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.Today's episode is with someone who is running the long race — in investing and in running.We sit down with prolific long distance runner, Blue Owl Capital's Ivan Zinn, who has been a pioneer in alternative credit and asset-based finance.Ivan has had a long career in private credit. He started at DLJ before joining Leonard Green & Partners and Highbridge Capital. He then joined HBK before founding pioneering private credit firm Atalaya Capital Management, where he was also the CIO. Ivan and team grew Atalaya to over $10B in AUM from 2006 to 2024 before being acquired by Blue Owl Capital for $450M (and $800M with earnouts).As part of the transaction, Ivan became Managing Director at Blue Owl and is the Head of Alternative Credit, where the firm is now expanding its footprint due to Atalaya's expertise. Ivan is as prolific outside of the office as he is in it — he is a long distance runner, running 100 mile races, and was a NCAA All-American tennis player, which comes as no surprise given the discipline, focus and expertise required to excel at the activities he's done throughout his career in work and sport. He's also a Board member of the USTA Foundation.Ivan and I had a fascinating conversation about the evolution of private credit and the growth of asset-based finance. We discussed:How and why ABF has grown within the private credit ecosystem.ABF's market structure and a “trip down main street.”The potential size of the ABF market.Why moving assets off bank balance sheets can help the financial system.Why private credit is a data rich asset.Where ABF fits in a portfolio.Why consumer credit is potentially misunderstood within private credit.Thanks Ivan for coming on the show to share your wisdom and expertise on private credit and ABF.

Interview with Jeff Quartermaine, Managing Director & CEO of Perseus Mining Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/perseus-mining-asxpru-gold-producers-800m-cash-new-production-coming-7050Recording date: 11th June 2025Perseus Mining Limited (ASX: PRU) has released comprehensive five-year guidance targeting 2.5 million ounces of gold production at all-in sustaining costs of $1,400-1,500 per ounce, with an impressive 93% of production backed by JORC-compliant reserves rather than speculative resources. The Australian-listed company, which operates exclusively across African gold mining jurisdictions, aims to address persistent market misconceptions about its asset quality and longevity.CEO Jeff Quartermaine attributes the company's undervaluation to two primary factors: an "African discount" applied by investors wary of continental operations, and incorrect market perceptions about short mine lives. The reality demonstrates Perseus's exceptional ability to extend operational lifespans - the Edikan mine has been extended from its original nine-year life in 2011 to 2031, while Sissingué has grown from 4.5 years in 2018 to the same 2031 timeline.Perseus differentiates itself through a cash-focused strategy rather than chasing production volumes. "What we do at Perseus is that the goal for us is to maximise cash production," Quartermaine explained. With $801 million in cash reserves and daily production of 1,300-1,400 ounces at approximately $1,200 per ounce, the company generates substantial operating cash flow.The growth trajectory includes the Nyanzaga project in Tanzania, Perseus's fourth operation requiring $520 million in capital expenditure and targeting first gold production in January 2027. The company employs sophisticated risk management through zero-cost collar hedging, providing downside protection at $2,600 per ounce while maintaining upside exposure to $4,600 per ounce.Perseus has committed to organic greenfield exploration for the first time, representing a 10-year investment horizon enabled by improved financial positioning. The company's exclusive African focus, combined with proven operational excellence and strategic cash generation, positions it to capitalise on the continent's mining renaissance while many Western competitors have retreated from these markets.View Perseus Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/perseus-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

What if the future of "impossible" protein therapeutics is hiding in your backyard?For decades, CHO cells have ruled the biotech kingdom as the undisputed champions of complex protein production. But here's the uncomfortable truth: countless breakthrough therapies are gathering dust on laboratory shelves—not because the science failed, but because traditional hosts can't produce them.Enter moss. Yes, moss. That humble green organism clinging to rocks and trees might just be the biotech industry's best-kept secret.In this eye-opening episode, David Brühlmann sits down with Andreas Schaaf, Managing Director and CSO of Eleva, who's spent over 20 years turning the "impossible" into reality. Andreas didn't just stumble upon moss; he co-developed Eleva's revolutionary moss-based platform from wild concept to commercial-scale game-changer, propelling the company into clinical trials.Here are three reasons why this episode is worth listening to:Moss as a Game Changer: More than a plant, moss is a higher eukaryote with mammalian-like protein production, including post-translational modifications and human-compatible glycosylation.Overcoming Bioprocessing Barriers: CHO cells are the industry gold standard, especially for monoclonal antibodies. But what about the therapeutic proteins that CHO can't handle? Many promising candidates end up shelved—not because the science isn't sound, but because existing production platforms hit their limits.Bioprocessing, Simplified: Moss grows in standard bioreactors using familiar workflows—just with a whole organism instead of suspended cells.Curious about how plant-based systems could solve your protein production challenges? Dive into this episode to discover how moss could revolutionize your approach to challenging proteins; and let us know about your own production hurdles.Connect with Andreas Schaaf:LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/andreas-schaaf-b3797716Website: www.elevabiologics.comNext step:Book a free consultation to help you get started on any questions you may have about bioprocessing analytics: https://bruehlmann-consulting.com/callDevelop bioprocessing technologies better, faster, at a fraction of the cost with our 1:1 Strategy Call: The quickest and easiest way to excel biotech technology development.

President Donald Trump called for the evacuation of Iran’s capital Tehran on Monday, hours after he urged the country’s leadership to sign a deal to limit its nuclear program and Israel signaled strikes would continue. It wasn’t clear if Trump knew of a fresh round of attacks Israel may have planned for the city, which has a population of more than 9 million people. Israel had earlier warned one Tehran neighborhood to evacuate and video showed massive traffic jams as people sought to escape. Soon after Trump’s post, Iran’s Fars news agency reported several explosions east of the city. For more, we heard from Middle East Analyst and Author Rodger Shanahan. He spoke to Bloomberg's Paul Allen and Shery Ahn. Plus- President Trump's comments on evacuating Tehran caused a jolt in global markets, with US futures falling and oil prices rising almost 2%. Despite earlier optimism that the conflict between Israel and Iran wouldn't escalate, Trump's comments contrasted with his earlier statement that Iran wanted to make a deal. For more, we turn to James Abate, Managing Director & Head of Fundamental Strategies at Horizon Investments.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
