Podcasts about events

A safe space is necessary, but a brave space changes everything. In this snack-sized episode, I'm sharing a powerful moment from a conversation I had with Christina Olivarez inside the Sought-After Speaker System. Christina breaks down why it's not enough to just create safety, but you have to create courage. Her event goes beyond inspiration […] The post 229: The Power of Brave Events for Entrepreneurs ft.

There's an old saying, “God works in mysterious ways.” And that's certainly true, not only of the Christmas story, but of the stories behind the songs of Christmas. God often does things in ways we'd never think to do them, using people we'd never think to use. Could it be that God wants to use you to do something of significance you never would've imagined or even thought possible?

This video is part of a Ukrainian Advert series, celebrating Ukrainian voices, culture and resilience, ahead of Christmas Day. The project is kindly supported by maker of the film: The Steel Porcupine.#ONE: Andrew Chakhoyan is a Ukrainian American based in the Netherlands and is a vocal and articulate champion of Ukraine and its cause. ----------The Steel Porcupine https://www.thesteelporcupine.com/I'm proud to say that this series of ‘Ukrainian advent' interviews is supported by The Steel Porcupine – a unique and powerful film about a country that refuses to lie down, a people who turned themselves into a fortress of needles when Russian tanks rolled in. The Steel Porcupine is an unforgettable cinematic experience that exposes Russia's campaign of extermination in Ukraine, and the Ukrainian people's spirit to resist and prevail. It follows soldiers, volunteers and people who decided that survival meant resistance, not submission.Created by the makers of the acclaimed To the Zero Line, this is another film about humanity, that clearly states there is no such thing as neutrality when war crimes are being committed systematically by Russia, and on a scale in Europe only comparable to World War Two. Set to a haunting soundtrack featuring music by Philip Glass, and blending rare archival footage with original material, it is an impactful work of art and storytelling, as well as being informative.----------LINKS:https://x.com/ChakhoyanAndrewhttps://www.weforum.org/agenda/authors/andrew-chakhoyan/https://www.politico.eu/article/ukraine-incrementalism-russia-war-president-volodymyr-zelenskyy-truth/ ----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN 12 Events in 12 months - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur first live events this year in Lviv and Kyiv were a huge success.

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!If you've ever felt yanked from one moment into the next, this guided reentry is your reset. We slow down the space between chapters so you can release the residue of what just happened and choose, on purpose, how you want to enter what comes next. Through gentle breathwork, grounding cues, and clear language, we create a small but powerful pause—one that returns scattered attention back to the body and helps the nervous system trade urgency for presence.We start by settling where we are: softening shoulders and jaw, feeling the support beneath us, and letting each exhale lengthen. From there, we acknowledge where we've been without judgment—whether it was a hard meeting, a busy day, or emotions only you could feel. Using imagery like dust lifting from a windowsill as sunlight moves in, we let go of what we don't need while trusting that the insights worth keeping will stay. This isn't escapism; it's integration.Once we've found our center, we pair breath with simple mantras: Inhale, I come home. Exhale, I let go. Inhale, I gather. Exhale, I release. The rhythm anchors attention and invites clarity. Then we ask the pivotal question: How do I want to enter what comes next? Maybe the answer is steadiness, curiosity, softer edges, or clearer boundaries. We imagine crossing a threshold carrying only what serves and leaving the rest with kindness, reclaiming choice in a world that rarely pauses.Walk away feeling present, connected, and ready for whatever's next. If this practice helps you create calmer transitions, share it with someone who rushes between moments, subscribe for more mindful resets, and leave a review to tell us what energy you're bringing forward.Support the show

Did you know that when many people hear "Orange," they still ask if it involves SIM cards? That was the perfect place to begin my conversation with Sahem Azzam, President for IMEA and Inner Asia at Orange Business. Once we cleared that up, it opened the door to a much richer story about what enterprise innovation looks like across one of the fastest-moving regions on the planet. Sahem joined me from Dubai, a city that has become a living case study for what happens when a region refuses to think small. As we compared notes from Gitex Global, it became clear that what is happening across the Middle East is not a short burst of enthusiasm. It is a deliberate long-term shift driven by young populations, bold government ambition, and a willingness to adopt new technologies before anyone else. Sahem explained how this appetite for speed is shaping the region's digital transformation and how Orange Business is supporting it through cloud, connectivity, cybersecurity, digital integration, and large-scale smart city programmes. He shared practical stories that peeled back the curtain on cognitive city design, energy optimisation, and the pressure on enterprises to simplify sprawling hybrid IT environments. What stood out was how often the conversation returned to value. Better user experiences, lower costs, and new revenue paths. Everything Orange Business builds must deliver one of those outcomes. Sahem talked through platformization, why unified infrastructure matters, and how enterprises can reduce complexity in an age where cloud, security, networking, and AI all collide at once. We also discussed the growing focus on responsible AI and the shared need for transparency. Sahem spoke about data ownership, trusted models, and the careful guardrails that must sit behind every AI deployment. The rise in cyber threats is making this more important than ever, and he offered a candid look at how Orange Cyberdefense approaches modern security through an integrated view of infrastructure, operations, and risk. What gave this conversation a personal edge was Sahem's final reflection on learning. After years at Stanford, London Business School, and Harvard, he still sees human experience as the most valuable teacher. Listening to people, sharing problems, comparing perspectives. Events like Gitex remind him that optimism is contagious and that the future of the region will be shaped by collaboration as much as technology. If you want a grounded view of digital transformation from someone living it every day, this conversation is a rare window into both the opportunities and the tension behind innovation at scale. Have you seen the same momentum in your own region, and how do you stay ahead of the pace of change? I would love to hear your thoughts.   Tech Talks Daily is Sponsored By Denodo.

Industrial water professionals sit at the intersection of risk, regulation, and community trust. In this episode, Dr. Annette Davison ("the water risk doctor") joins Trace Blackmore to show how disciplined governance, clear supply chain thinking, and community engagement can turn fragmented water systems into coherent, defensible risk management frameworks.  Water risk from source to customer  Annette starts with a simple question most customers never ask: "Where's your water coming from?" She walks through a conceptual supply chain from source to end point—collection, transfer, treatment, distribution, and customers—then layers governance on top. Who holds custody at each handover point? Are water quality objectives clearly defined and documented? What happens when something "stuffs up," and how is that communicated downstream? For leaders, it's a practical reminder that risk isn't just about treatment performance; it's about clearly assigned responsibilities along the entire chain.  Governance, ISO 31000, and the Water31K framework  Drawing on her background in microbial ecology and environmental law, Annette explains why "you can't do a good risk assessment unless you've got the context right." She describes how ISO 31000 inspired the Water31K framework—an approach that is jurisdictionally agnostic and capable of spanning drinking water, recycled water, and recreational water guidelines. Using Water31K, her team walks into any jurisdiction and systematically maps stakeholders, legal and formal requirements, reporting lines, and internal obligations so utilities can see their governance landscape clearly before they start scoring risk.  Critical control points, AI, and learning from incidents  Critical control points may have started in the food industry, but Annette shows how they can be sharpened for water. Her test— "would a computer understand this?"—forces teams to close logical gaps and define thresholds and responses precisely enough to be automated. She also explores how AI and "agents as a service" could help analyze incident data, while warning that AI is useless if utilities haven't done the basics: monitoring the right things, at the right place, at the right time, with a firm grasp of supply chain risk. Her mantra: never waste a good incident; dissect it and make sure it doesn't happen again.  Regulations, public–private contracts, and community projects  Using Australia as an example, Annette unpacks the complexity of layered laws—Commonwealth, state, local—and the different regimes governing public, metro, and private utilities. She shares a five-part checklist for public–private contracts (quantity, quality, maintenance, ownership, operations) and explains how weak agreements can undermine water quality objectives and monitoring. In parallel, she talks about social initiatives like One Street and One Creek, community-led work on Rocky Creek, and bringing STEAM (not just STEM) into high schools so the next generation sees water as a diverse, creative career path.  Strong water risk governance isn't just about compliance; it's about making better decisions for customers and communities over decades. This conversation gives leaders language, frameworks, and examples they can use to tighten their own systems and engage people beyond the plant fence.  Stay engaged, keep learning, and continue scaling up your knowledge!    Timestamps    02:15 — Trace reflects on the end of 2025, recap planning, and how goal setting shapes a stronger 2026 for sales and learning. 11:12 — Introducing lab partner Dr. Annette Davison and her diverse day-to-day across mediation workshops, field work, and high school outreach. 12:10 — The Risk Edge Group mission: protecting people, processes, and the planet from contaminated water with documents, templates, tools, and audits. 13:14 — "Incidents Online" as a free learning resource and how sharing real events helps others protect themselves. 14:10 — Becoming Australian Water Association's Water Professional of the Year and launching the One Street and One Creek social initiatives. 15:29 — From microbial ecology and contaminated sites to environmental law and a career focused on water quality governance. 19:47 — Training as a core "case study": lighting up operators and directors by finally explaining the "why" behind procedures and funding. 22:00 — Walking the water supply chain from source to end point and identifying governance handover points and quality objectives. 24:22 — Strategy-to-operations workflow: from planning and design to commissioning and operations, and why design must serve operators. 24:45 — Critical control points, space diarrhoea origin-story, and the discipline of defining CCPs so clearly "a computer would understand." 30:30 — How Water31K creates a common language for teasing out complex legal and regulatory structures across jurisdictions. 33:03 — The multi-layered Australian governance example: Commonwealth guidelines, state acts, and differing regimes for local, metro, and private utilities. 36:23 — Rocky Creek and the Karingai "Kraken" network: turning an unloved creek into a pilot for community care and data-driven education. 38:19 — onestreet.earth, mobilising your community, and building a playbook so others can replicate a "One Creek" model. 39:21 — STEAM power in schools: bringing science, technology, engineering, art, and maths together to improve water communication. 42:01 — Public vs private utilities, the Water Industry Competition Act, nimble private operators, and the five-part contract checklist. 44:39 — Emerging hazards (microplastics, PFAS) and the reminder not to take our eyes off the basics while we monitor new risks. 46:19 — Annette's core message: we've got to love water and help customers understand what it takes to keep it safe and reliable.   Quotes "You can't do a good risk assessment unless you've got the context right."  "Where's your water coming from? How do you collect it? How do you transfer it to where it needs to go to? How do you treat it?"  "We now just keep asking ourselves the same question, will the computer understand this?"  "AI's not going to help us until we get the right inputs to AI. Let's get the basics right first."  "We've got to love water. We've got to make sure that people are aware of water, not only the technocrats, but also the people who are using it."    Connect with Annette Davison Email: annette@riskedge.com.au  Website: https://www.riskedge.com.au/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/annettedavison/    Guest Resources Mentioned   The Risk Edge Group – Water31K Framework & Services  Incidents Online (Risk Edge)  Risk Edge Training (e.g., CCP and Governance Courses)  Ku-ring-gai Community Rotary Network ("the Kraken")  Australian Drinking Water Guidelines (ADWG)  WHO Guidelines for Drinking-water Quality  The Overstory – Richard Powers  The Three-Body Problem – Cixin Liu  The Covenant of Water – Abraham Verghese    Scaling UP!

Key highlightsHow Backed grew from a $30M first fund to a newly closed $100M Fund III, with top-quartile returns and 5 unicorns across 100 investments.The founder traits they optimize for: deep competitiveness, speed under uncertainty, and “PQ” - a founder's magnetic pull on top talent and early believers.Why the biggest outcomes come from betting early on markets that look strange, overlooked, or technically impossible.How events became Backed's secret weapon — sourcing better deals, meeting founders earlier, and building a tight-knit community through 40+ events a year.What it means to run a venture firm where portfolio founders also become LPs, and why this deepens alignment across every new fund.The frontier-tech themes they're betting on now: financial services, manufacturing, and biotech — all at the edge of engineering and scientific breakthroughs.Why Backed is expanding their US presence while keeping the core of their thesis focused on European founders.This episode is a masterclass for early-stage founders and investors navigating fast-moving markets, deep tech, and high-ambition company building.Tune in to learn how Backed spots founders, builds community at scale, and chooses markets long before they become obvious.Recorded live at Slush 2025 in Helsinki.

If we're seeking a feeling of illumination or deeper connection to the universal and divine, what clues and meaning can we find in perhaps the best-known story of transformation in western history — the Transfiguration of Jesus Christ? Does it reveal an esoteric path to active engagement with evolution and expanding consciousness? Or is it a powerful metaphor for an innate human species capacity to grow and develop?In this conversation, Aviv Shahar and metamodern thought leader Brendan Graham Dempsey continue their lively dialogue on the many faces of Jesus Christ, the central pillar of Christianity. Building on their previous conversation, they focus on mystical and metamodern appreciations of the mystery of the Transfiguration.The exploration goes beyond historical accounts to seek the significance of such a transformation to our own pursuit of meaning, connection, purpose and expanded awareness. How do each of us experience our own moments of sacred empowerment and profound, life-changing insight and inspiration?The conversation expands our understanding of this unique time, into the evolutionary possibility to experience and express our true universal nature. Aviv and Brendan's many insights include:The story of Christ's transfiguration is a key moment of storytelling in the broader narrative that we see unfolding in human cultural evolution towards a shift in higher consciousness.We have entered a unique time where the species is reaching for something beyond Homo Solaris — the Universalis human, where we can again embrace plurality.We are not human beings seeking a spiritual experience, but spirit beings becoming human to develop, mature and become vessels for continual evolution to occur through us as co-creators.The first consideration in an esoteric contemplation is that a prophecy, or any learning, is actualized not when it occurs, but when it has been witnessed and validated.If the spiritual discourse is not amenable to the same kinds of justification dynamics as science or other discourse, it is insulated from critique, and breaks down into ‘you feel it or you don't'.Focusing only on exterior sources of knowledge, and giving credence to the microscope and telescope, can disenfranchise the ‘interior scope' and natural inner sense organs.This conversation is part of the continuing Portals discovery into what is emerging on the frontiers of human experience in this time of profound change.

This is not just a biological experience. That we are, in fact, not human beings seeking a spiritual experience, we are, in fact, spirit beings coming into the human experience to gain development and maturation such that we become vessels for continual evolution to occur through us as we are co-participants and co-creators of this evolution.” (Aviv)“How do we make this journey? And we went back and forth in finding, carving, a way to enable a space that perhaps is not defined by the gravitational logic that we process every day, and at the same time that is not going to abandon certain frameworks and certain ways of thinking and being that will afford us freedom and safety and collaboration and, ultimately, possibilities to solve big problems on the global stage.” (Aviv) RESOURCES MENTIONED Portals of Perception WebsiteAviv's LinkedIn Aviv's TwitterAviv's WebsiteThe Transfiguration Archetype

From packing bulky gear to ensuring cleanliness and safety, parents often find themselves overwhelmed. BabyQuip, led by CEO and founder Fran Maier, provides a simple, effective solution. BabyQuip connects traveling families with local providers of baby gear, offering a trusted marketplace for renting everything from cribs to strollers.Fran shared how her experience as a mother and Airbnb host inspired BabyQuip. “I did not want to buy, store, clean, take care of baby gear for guests,” she explained. Her entrepreneurial instincts led her to harness the gig economy, creating opportunities for over 3,000 providers—mostly moms—who deliver, set up, and clean the rented gear. “We're a marketplace, like Turo or Airbnb. We really harness the energy and dedication of our providers,” she added.This innovative model addresses a significant need in the $3 trillion U.S. travel industry. Parents flying with children no longer need to lug heavy gear or worry about availability at their destination. Fran noted, “It's an acute need, because it's something you need at a specific time in a specific place.”The company's success is evident. BabyQuip now operates in 28 countries, recently partnered with Vrbo, and has earned a Good Housekeeping award for innovative travel solutions. This year, the company expects to fulfill over 120,000 orders and even achieved profitability in Q3.BabyQuip is poised for further growth, with plans to expand into mobility equipment and international markets. To fuel this expansion, Fran is raising capital on StartEngine via a regulated crowdfunding campaign. “I have a brand that customers love. Crowdfunding lets me invite them to be part of the journey,” she explained.By addressing a real pain point for families and leveraging the gig economy, BabyQuip is redefining the travel experience for parents everywhere.tl;dr:BabyQuip solves the hassle of traveling with baby gear by connecting families to local providers.The company operates in 28 countries and has fulfilled over 120,000 orders this year alone.BabyQuip recently partnered with Vrbo and won a Good Housekeeping award for travel innovation.Fran Maier is raising capital on StartEngine to fund expansion into mobility and international markets.Fran's superpower is her visionary instinct for building trusted brands that solve real problems.How to Develop Visionary Instinct As a SuperpowerFran's superpower is her ability to “see things and get it” instinctively. She described how her entrepreneurial journey has been shaped by her knack for identifying potential in ideas and turning them into trusted brands. As Fran explained, “I've been the one who came in and looked at [ideas] and said, ‘Oh, I can do something with this.'” Her marketing background and experience enable her to see how businesses can grow, make an impact, and solve real problems for people.Fran's visionary instinct was on full display when she co-founded Match.com in the mid-1990s. At the time, the internet was in its infancy, and many doubted its potential. Fran, however, immediately recognized its transformative possibilities. “When I first saw the internet, I was like, ‘Oh my God, this is going to change everything,'” she recalled. She joined Match to build a trusted brand, foreseeing the massive societal shift toward online dating that would follow.Tips for Developing Visionary Instinct:Trust Your Gut: Pay attention to your instincts when evaluating new ideas or opportunities.Immerse Yourself in Trends: Stay informed about industry shifts and emerging technologies to spot opportunities early.Practice Pattern Recognition: Look for recurring themes or challenges in your field that you can address.Build on Experience: Leverage knowledge from past successes and failures to inform your decisions.Think Big: Envision not just the product but the larger impact and scale it can achieve.By following Fran's example and advice, you can make visionary instinct a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileFran Maier (she/her):CEO and Co-Founder, BabyQuipAbout BabyQuip: BabyQuip is the leading global marketplace for renting baby gear, beach gear, pet gear, and mobility equipment—helping travelers avoid the hassle of hauling bulky items and enabling more families to travel with ease.
