The realities of climate change were spelt out with distinct clarity at the Tuesday, August 6, forum, both in person and online, organised by the Australian National University through its Institute for Climate, Energy and Disaster Solutions. The keynote speaker was the Assistant Treasurer and Minister for Financial Services, Stephen Jones. Mr Jones said his government, the Australian Labor Government, is not "putting its head in the proverbial bucket of sand" regarding climate change. He said; "It's real, it's here, it's now, it's happening, it's not a future event and it's consequential".

Welcome to an audio-led edition of Unmade, featuring an interview with the editorial and commercial leaders of The Australian recorded to mark its 60th birthday.Producing independent analysis of the media and marketing industry that goes beyond press releases takes time and resources. If you like what we do, you can support us by becoming a paying member. Become a member todayThe Australian's Gunn and Gray: Is radio the next frontier?; platform friends and foes; and AI optimismIf Meta stops sharing news on its platforms to beat the News Media Bargaining Code, it should be forced to leave Australia altogether, the executive leading News Corp's relationships with digital platforms argues.The comments from Nicholas Gray come during a podcast conversation with Unmade's Tim Burrowes. As part of the News Corp restructure, Gray has been given the expanded, dual role of MD and publisher of The Australian and the company's stable of prestige publishing arm, along with MD of tech platform partnerships.It comes as the industry waits on treasury minister Stephen Jones' decision whether to designate Meta under the News Media Bargaining Code rules. In 2021, Google (owned by Alphabet) and Facebook (owned by Meta), fended off designation by voluntarily striking deals with local publishers. In March. Meta said it would not renew its deals.If designation of Meta occurs, the company would be forced to go into binding arbitration with local companies that appear on the Australian Communications and Media Authority's register of eligible news businesses over how much it must pay each of them to feature their content.Facebook has indicated that it would prevent news links being shared, which would enable it to argue in arbitration that it would not need to pay the publishers.During the conversation Gray argues: “We hope the Assistant Treasurer designates. Obviously then, Meta have a decision.“They've threatened to turn off news as they have in Canada.“If they're designated and if they try to turn off news, we say that won't be enough.We prefer they didn't exit the market entirely, but if they're not prepared to pay for the news that's unquestionably an important part of their service, all of the research says that, and our data says that, then we don't think it's sustainable for them to operate in this market.The call that Meta should be prevented from operating in Australia altogether was first hinted at by News Corp's boss, executive chairman Michael Miller in his speech to the Australian Press Club last month. He called for the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, which created the bargaining code, to have “the power to ultimately block access to our country and our people if they refuse to play by our rules.”The interview with Gray and The Australian's editor-in-chief Michelle Gunn was timed for the 60th anniversary of The Australian, which celebrated the landmark over the weekend.During the conversation, Gunn is asked about previous reports The Australian is contemplating launching its own radio station, similar to The Times Radio in the UK. Gunn acknowledges that “live audio” is on the table.She says: “We are looking at our success in podcasting. I think it's an important tool for us to grow audience.“Whether it takes the form of live audio or podcasts, and we're still looking at what the mix will be, and what form it will take.”On the same radio question, Gray adds: “We need to be in new places with our brand and our news reporting in the forms that people want to consume it, however they may, in order to develop them as potential subscribers down the track.”News Corp's global chair Lachlan Murdoch already owns radio stations in Australia through Nova Entertainment.The wide ranging conversation also covers the tough publishing environment; The Australian's increasing use of vertical video, lessons learned from failed youth brand The Oz, how AI will change journalism, and The Australian's battles with its rivals at Nine.How Unmade yesterday covered Rupert Murdoch's prediction that newspapers have no more than 15 years left in printThe Unmade Index rose again yesterday.

This episode features an interview with Nitesh Sharan, CFO at Soundhound, the innovator in voice-enabled AI and conversational intelligence technologies. Nitesh has over 25 years of experience in financial leadership roles. He spent nearly 15 of those at Hewlett Packard where he rose to be Vice President and Assistant Treasurer. And prior to Soundhound, Nitesh served as Nike's CFO of Global Operations an0d Technology. On this episode, Nitesh discusses the preparation for going public during the pandemic, how to protect your company's finances during uncertain times, and how conversational voice AI will play a transformative role in everything from education to the food industry and more.Quotes*”One of the things that is a benefit of being a CFO is you have that agnostic view. You look at the numbers for what they are. You understand what drives growth and profitability. Presumably the CFO has a very acute sense of what investors are looking for, what shareholders are demanding and tying those things together in some kind of numeric, metric-based view. It's very valuable to the company when they are deciding [whether to] invest and go to market, or invest in engineering or whatever capabilities they are trying to allocate resources against. So I think one of the most important things for CFOs is being able to understand the true variables that drive value in the company. and then going and allocating resources heavily against the ones that matter most. And making the harder decisions to move away from the ones that don't. And over time, those things change. And so just staying persistently in the details to understand how those things change is really important.”*”Different is good, and challenge is good. I reflect back on my career and say I grew the most in the most challenging times.”*”We see continuously, particularly in the tech industry, how independent players are able to succeed in different verticals against, in many cases, the big tech who have unlimited resources. Because with laser focused resources, attention, having everybody row in the same direction, there's a lot that can be done, even with a smaller wallet.”*”Even as we build our teams, we emphasize the person who can do more with less, and bring great tools. So whether it's in our planning software, leveraging some great planning tools out there, leveraging technology to make it more efficient to do our SEC filings or whether it's on the treasury side, to navigate, improvements in our cost of payments because we're managing international payment flows, and the foreign exchange friction can be significant if not done thoughtfully.”*”Invest in technology today. It helps you scale much more rapidly with the thinner team. And the output's much better.”*”We're solving long-term solutions for how humans interact with technology. And so we're staying committed to that long-term vision, and yet we're sharpening focus, if anything. And that's what great companies need to be doing, which is when the world pivots a certain way, stay true to the long term vision, but just get sharper, get greater attention on things that matter most and keep sharpening that pencil.”Time Stamps[2:17] Nitesh's path to CFO[15:17] The future of conversational voice AI[18:03] Cash Crossroads: How SoundHound leverages technology to drive growth[27:10] The Playbook: Finance Strategy at SoundHound[35:31] How SoundHound went public during the pandemic[41:43] Quick Hits: Rapid fire questions with Nitesh SharanSponsorThe Invisible Vault is powered by the team at Kyriba, the global leader in cloud treasury and finance solutions, empowering CFOs and their teams to transform how they activate liquidity as a dynamic, real-time vehicle for growth and value creation.
