Bayer is reshaping its pharmaceutical business with a new operating model designed to enhance collaboration and bring research & development and commercialization closer together. In a recent episode of The Top Line podcast, Bayer executives Christine Roth, Executive Vice President and Head of Global Product Strategy and Commercialization, and Dr. Yesmean Wahdan, Head of Medical Affairs for the United States and North America, discussed how the company’s Dynamic Shared Ownership framework is driving faster innovation and helping accelerate the development of new therapies for patients. The model removes traditional hierarchies, empowers cross-functional teams and encourages real-time collaboration across departments. Roth and Wahdan said the approach has already shortened regulatory timelines, reduced resource use and helped deliver treatments to patients sooner. By embedding commercial insights early in the research process, Bayer teams can anticipate market needs and focus on the greatest areas of unmet medical demand. The leaders said the company’s collaborative culture keeps patient benefit at the center of decision-making.

374 Water Interim CEO Steve Jones joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss his recent appointment as the company's Interim President and Chief Executive Officer. In his new role, Jones will oversee the next stage of project deployments, the commercialization of 374Water's supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) technology, and the acceleration of its expanding pipeline of opportunities in sustainable waste management. Jones, who joined 374Water's Board of Directors in June 2025, brings a wealth of executive experience in environmental services, industrial gases, and clean technologies. His leadership background includes board and senior management roles across several global organizations, where he specialized in commercializing industrial innovations and building high-performing teams in capital-intensive sectors. Previously, Jones served as President, CEO, and Director of Covanta Holding Corporation, a world leader in Energy-from-Waste solutions and environmental services. Before that, he spent a significant portion of his career with Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., a global leader in industrial gases, chemicals, and process technologies. At Air Products, Jones held senior management positions across multiple business units, where he helped pioneer the on-site business model—an approach now being deployed by 374Water as its Waste Destruction Services (“WDS”) model. Jones' background in technology commercialization, business development, and project execution uniquely positions him to guide 374Water through its commercial scale-up phase. His leadership is expected to strengthen the company's focus on transforming waste management through sustainable, closed-loop solutions that convert waste into clean water, energy, and recoverable materials. The appointment marks a strategic step forward for 374Water as it transitions from development to full-scale commercialization of its disruptive, climate-positive waste treatment solutions. The company recently announced the successful completion of a commercial-scale field demonstration at Clean Earth's Detroit, MI facility as part of a previously announced Department of Defense project. In terms of corporate strategy, Jones highlighted a focus on throughput improvements and targeting high-return market opportunities. He also discussed the recent proxy filing regarding a potential reverse stock split to retain Nasdaq listing requirements and broaden investor access. #proactiveinvestors #374waterinc #nasdaq #scwo #wastewater #PFASDestruction #AirSCWO #WasteManagement #EnvironmentalTech #PFAS #WasteDestruction #374Water #EnvironmentalTech #AirSCWO #EPACompliance #WaterTreatment #CleanTech #DefenseInnovation #SustainableSolutions #HazardousWaste #ForeverChemicals #IndustrialWaste #Biosolids

Early detection saves lives, but today's tools are often invasive, slow, or used too late. In this episode, Breath Diagnostics CEO Ivan Lo explains how a non-invasive breath test can detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs) associated with disease—positioning breath as a first-line screen for early-stage lung cancer and potentially pneumonia and TB. We cover the science (why breath can capture near real-time biological change), sensitivity/specificity signals from 800+ patients, and a go-to-market/regulatory plan that prioritizes post-op pneumonia (shorter trials, no entrenched standard of care) before lung cancer screening. We also discuss platform economics (low-cost disposables, existing LC-MS infrastructure), trial scale and cost, and how breath could support ongoing monitoring after treatment. Investors get a clear view of timelines, risks, and upside; founders get lessons on platform positioning, capital efficiency, and sequencing indications. Highlights include...Why breath (VOCs) can surface disease signals minutes–hours after biological changeFirst-line screening thesis vs. liquid biopsy and CT workflowsEarly data: ~94% sensitivity / 85% specificity across 800+ patients (lung cancer context)Regulatory path: post-op pneumonia first (faster FDA route), lung cancer nextUnit economics: low-cost cartridge + existing LC-MS labs (hub-and-spoke)Clinical design: trial scale, costs, and companion-diagnostic “cocktail” potentialPlatform beyond oncology: pneumonia, TB, inflammation, RUO for pharmaChapters00:00 Intro & why early detection needs a rethink00:47 What Breath Diagnostics does (the “breath bag”)03:34 VOCs 101: why breath can be earlier than blood06:41 First-line screen vs. confirmatory tests08:19 Will this be ubiquitous at annual visits?11:53 Commercialization path & funding realities12:37 Pneumonia first: faster FDA route14:09 Lung cancer timeline & business model15:34 Hospital economics & pneumonia savings18:24 Trial scale/costs; disposable chip economics20:34 Team, funding strategy, and sequencing22:08 Early data and a “false negative” biopsy case24:12 TAM & eligibility (20M Americans qualify)25:06 What success looks like (2–3 years)27:00 Investor closing thoughts

Pushing biologics beyond 200 mg/mL isn't just a formulation challenge - it's a delivery, manufacturing, and regulatory challenge too. Aggregation, precipitation, and sky-high viscosity make scaling these therapies a gauntlet for drug developers.In this episode of Life Science Solutions, host Chris Adkins continues the conversation on hyper-concentrated biologics with Ryan Doxey, VP of Tech Ops & CMC at Kymanox, and Nick Letourneau, PhD, Associate Director of Product Development & Commercialization. Together, they unpack how dehydrated protein microparticles suspended in hydrophobic carriers (like MCT oils or ethyl oleate) can dissolve instantly upon injection, and why this breakthrough could dramatically ease the patient experience.The conversation dives deep into what this means for manufacturing, device compatibility, and regulatory pathways, revealing how the future of injectables depends on solving problems once thought unsolvable.Topics include:Why ultra-concentrated biologics often fail in aqueous solutionsHow microparticle suspensions dissolve rapidly in vivo to avoid depot effectsRheology 101: viscosity curves, shear-thinning fluids, and device designThe shift to aseptic manufacturing when sterile filtration isn't an optionPreclinical safety considerations and scaling studies from rodents to NHPsWhy early conversations with FDA's Emerging Technology Program matterThis is part two of our deep dive on concentrated biologics - picking up where our Podcast Marathon live episode left off. This episode offers a rare look inside the formulation frontier — where drug science, delivery design, and patient experience intersect.

Hillcrest Energy Technologies CEO Don Currie joined Steve Darling from Proactive's OTC studio in New York City to discuss the company's latest milestone, a memorandum of understanding with the Pasqua First Nation. The agreement establishes Pasqua as a strategic partner and prospective investor, marking an important step toward commercialization and long-term growth for Hillcrest. Currie described Hillcrest as a power conversion company focused on its proprietary zero-voltage switching inverter technology, which sets a new standard in efficiency and reliability. “We're the world's only provider of zero voltage switching technology at this power level,” he said. The company's soft-switching innovation dramatically reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI), enhances thermal control, and increases system efficiency making it highly valuable for electric vehicles and data infrastructure. On the automotive side, Hillcrest is collaborating with a global tier-one supplier valued around $3 billion, now nearing the completion of phase one testing. While the EV industry's adoption cycles are lengthy, Currie emphasized the company's expanding focus into faster-moving sectors such as data centers, solar, wind, and energy storage, where its technology offers immediate efficiency advantages. Currie also spoke about Hillcrest's expansion into the U.S. market, noting the strong response the company received after participating in a forum hosted at OTC Markets in New York City. “They understand electrification. They need better electrification here,” he said, highlighting growing demand for advanced power conversion technologies in North America. #proactiveinvestors #hillcrestenergytechnologiesltd #cse #heat #ptcqb #hlrtf #DonCurrie #ElectricVehicles #EVTechnology #PowerConversion #InverterTech #ZeroVoltageSwitching #SoftSwitching #DataCenters #CleanEnergy #PasquaFirstNation #EnergyStorage #GreenTech #ProactiveInvestors

In this episode, we chat with Diana Leon-Boys— Assistant Professor of Media and Cultural Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison's Department of Communication Arts—about her lifelong work examining the navigation of girlhood through a Latinx lens. Her book Elena, Princesa of the Periphery: Disney's Flexible Latina Girl extends conversations about minority representation and the complex relationship it has with child development. We host a dialogue between Diana's research and Henry's observations about boyhood in his book Where the Wild Things Were: Boyhood and Permissive Parenting in Postwar America. We discuss how both scholars pull from their own personal experiences growing up in America and how they interacted with their childhood media. We explore how the proliferation and production of children's and family media shape ideas of adolescence. Diana and Henry relate this back to their roles as parents within an ever-evolving media landscape where funding for educational children's content is dwindling. They further discuss how representation within media has changed over time and minority groups' relation to it. This is where Diana brings in her newer projects about depictions of Quinceañeras and Día de los Muertos in TV and films. We are left to ask what the politics of childhood are and what reforms can be done with current children's media.Here are some of the references from this episode, for those who want to dig a little deeper:Academic TextsDiana Leon-Boys:Elena, Princesa of the Periphery: Disney's Flexible Latina GirlQuinceañeras: Latinidades and Girlhood in Popular CultureHenry Jenkins:Where the Wild Things Were: Boyhood and Permissive Parenting in Postwar AmericaThe Children's Culture Reader“Just a Spoonful of Sugar: Permissive Child-Rearing and Walt Disney's Mary Poppins”“‘You've Got to Be Carefully Taught': The Whiteness of Permissive Culture”MIT Salute to Doctor SeussInterview about the bookOthers:Centuries of Childhood: A Social History of Family LifeKids in the Middle: How Children of Immigrants Negotiate Community Interactions for Their FamiliesLatina Teenhood: Intersectionalizing subjectivities in the post-network era.Crafting Public Opinion: The Effectiveness of China's Media Control Policies under Xi JinpingMade to Play House: Dolls and the Commercialization of American Girlhood, 1830-1930 Advice Books:The Common Sense Book of Baby and Child CareDare to Discipline People, Places, Toys, and HolidaysPhilippe ArièsDr. Vikki KatzDía de los MuertosQuinceañerasBenjamin SpockMargaret MeadDr. SeussFred RogersStephanie PérezRaquel Reyes [American Girl Doll]Samantha Parkington [Doll]Julie AndrewsWalt DisneyDisneyland and Disney WorldPaper DollsFDRSigmund Freud Shows, Films, and Other MediaPee-wee's PlayHouseDennis the Menace [59-63' show, Comics]Leave It To BeaverThe Cosby ShowOne Piece [Anime, Manga, Live Action]Disney+EncantoCocoSnow White [Animated, Live Action]Little Mermaid [Animated, Live Action]Chinese State Media sounded like Fox MediaRogue OneSesame StreetGordita ChroniclesBaker and the BeautyBlueyDescendants film franchiseOn My BlockWednesdayMary PoppinsSaludos AmigosHarry Potter film seriesDora The Explorer The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T.Mad Magazine Classic IllustratedGabby's DollhouseQuinceañeras episodesSuper Sweet 16Wizards of Waverly PlaceDora the Explorer NewsDefunding of PBS Quinceañeras in ProtestOne Piece Flags in Indonesia ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––Share your thoughts via Twitter with Henry, Colin and the How Do You Like It So Far? account!

Pittsburgh's success in the robotics space didn't happen overnight. It's been over 40 years in the making, with education, business, and new innovations all coming together to make the city one of the big robotics hubs alongside Boston and San Francisco.The Pittsburgh Robotics Network has been a key player in that success, giving individuals, companies, and universities the opportunity to collaborate on projects and business opportunities. Executive Director, Jennifer Apicella, joins us on the podcast to give us a background on Pittsburgh's industry and to share her take on the commercialization of robotics and automation.A key theme in this episode is how you don't have to replicate the success of the big cities. Every place is different, and part of Pittsburgh's success has been to lean into its unique strengths and industry challenges. In other words, you don't need your city to become the next Silicon Valley to be successful. In this episode, find out:A recap of the great bars, restaurants and bowling alleys we explored around PittsburghJennifer explains what the Pittsburgh Robotics Network does and how it's helping to support new technology and industry growthSome background on why the Pittsburgh Robotics Network was started and built by the community it now representsHow the group measures success and why commercialization is key to developing technologies that solve real problemsHow other cities and regions can learn from what Pittsburgh has done without needing to copy the same formulaThe challenges of working in a non-profit in a for-profit industry and how Jennifer balances different prioritiesJennifer's advice for becoming a better part of the local technology communityWhy the key to commercialization is about looking beyond the tech and focusing instead on problemsPlans and predictions for Pittsburgh's industry in the next five years Enjoying the show?

She highlights how the pandemic has transformed leadership dynamics, creating new challenges for maintaining collaborative environments across dispersed teams. Her practical solutions for adapting leadership approaches in virtual settings demonstrate her thoughtful, pragmatic approach to team management.The conversation explores the unique strengths women bring to payments leadership, particularly their ability to work cross-functionally and build consensus across stakeholders.

Welcome to episode #987 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Cindy Anderson is on a mission to bring clarity, standards, and serious business impact to thought leadership. As Global Lead for Engagement & Eminence at IBM's Institute for Business Value and the Global Thought Leadership Institute, Cindy has spent years leading one of the most ambitious research efforts ever undertaken on this topic. The result is her new book, The ROI of Thought Leadership – Calculating the Value That Sets Organizations Apart, co-authored with Anthony Marshall. In it, Cindy reveals what more than 4000 C-level executives told IBM about how they consume, value, and act on thought leadership, and why some content drives sales while most gets ignored. In this conversation, we unpack what truly makes someone a thought leader, why AI is simultaneously diluting and accelerating the field, and what it means to play at the top of the marketing funnel with 156% ROI on the line. This isn't about personal branding... it's about strategic business outcomes. We also explore how trust, frequency and format shape impact, and what companies must do to avoid audience fatigue. For anyone who creates, funds or is trying to measure thought leadership this one's essential listening. Enjoy the conversation… Running time: 55:18. Hello from beautiful Montreal.
