Banche e intermediari finanziari puntano a trasformare il modo in cui valutano il rischio di credito grazie all'automazione. Con un processo più veloce, scalabile, apparentemente anche oggettivo. E capace di abilitare un “credito istantaneo”, in cui bastano un click e pochi secondi per far decidere all'algoritmo se siamo affidabili, oppure no. Ma sarà in grado di comprendere il contesto, la storia di un imprenditore? E che succede nei momenti di crisi, come quelli che viviamo continuamente da oltre cinque anni? Ne abbiamo parlato in un episodio del nostro podcast #define banking con Ivan Fogliata, Executive Partner di inFinance.

In this special Investor Spotlight edition of Raising Biotech, Surani sits down with Dr. Jakob Dupont, Executive Partner at Sofinnova Investments, to explore one of the most unusual career trajectories in biotech. Before becoming a venture investor, Dupont spent decades as a physician, cancer researcher, biotech executive, and drug developer, helping bring therapies from the laboratory all the way to patients. From Memorial Sloan Kettering to Genentech, Roche, OncoMed, Gossamer Bio and Atara Biotherapeutics, his career spans nearly every corner of the drug development ecosystem. The conversation explores what investors are really looking for when evaluating biotech companies, why unmet need and clinical strategy matter as much as the science itself, and how Sofinnova approaches investing in clinical-stage therapeutics. Dupont also shares examples from Sofinnova's portfolio, including Avenzo Therapeutics and Capstan Therapeutics, before discussing the future of biotech, the rise of new therapeutic modalities, AI-enabled drug development, and why the industry's next challenge may be developing medicines quickly enough to keep pace with innovation.

What happens when healthcare supply chain teams stop trusting their own data? In this episode of Power Supply, Shireen Ahmad, Executive Partner at Midstream, joins us to explain why data hygiene remains one of the biggest challenges in healthcare supply chain, and why its impact reaches far beyond IT. From ERP migrations and broken contract relationships to pricing discrepancies that can cost hospitals thousands of dollars per procedure, Shireen shares real-world examples of how poor data quietly undermines operations, sourcing, and financial performance. She also explores the growing role of AI, master data management, and governance, arguing that data hygiene is ultimately a trust issue, not just a technology issue.

In this episode, Surani takes a deep dive with experts into biotechs hottest new hype cycle -- GLP-1s. Over the past couple years, biotech investing has felt like it's entering a new gravitational field, with GLP-1s at the center. Once a niche diabetes therapy, these drugs have evolved into a commercial juggernaut, hailed as everything from a “blockbuster weight loss pill” to a potential “longevity drug.” With Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly raking in a combined $70 billion from GLP-1s in 2025 alone, the capital markets are responding in kind: mega Series A/B rounds, billion-dollar M&A deals, and a stampede of new startups chasing metabolic targets. But this momentum raises deeper questions, not just about science or market opportunity, but about what gets funded, what gets sidelined, and what kind of biotech future we're building. In this episode, Surani traces the scientific and regulatory journey of GLP-1s -- From the Gila monster venom to global market domination -- and unpacks what this class of drugs tells us about the current state of biotech investing. She's joined by three guests offering different vantage points: Jakob Dupont, Executive Partner at Sofinnova, Stephanie Sirota, Chief Business Officer at RTW Investments, and William Ho, CEO of In8bio and former investor and analyst covering GLP-1s. Together, they explore the promise and perils of capital clustering, how investors frame GLP-1s beyond weight loss, and what happens when you're trying to raise money outside the hype. This is not just a story about one drug class, it's a story about biotech's risk tolerance, its blind spots, and the tension between commercial gravity and scientific breadth. Timestamps: 00:00 — Opening: The GLP-1 money trail and biotech's new center of gravity 03:00 — What are GLP-1s and where did they come from? The Gila monster origin story 04:30 — From Byetta to Ozempic: early setbacks, FDA hurdles, and Novo Nordisk's breakthrough 12:00 — The new investor wave: GLP-1s as de-risked, commercial mega-hits 16:30 — Beyond weight loss: The expanding promise of GLP-1s in other indications and longevity measures 20:00 — The muscle loss problem and the next wave of combo drugs 23:00 — William Ho on hype cycles and long-term unknowns 27:00 — Raising outside the magnet: the challenges for complex biotech 30:30 — Final reflections: the double-edged success of GLP-1s For any comments, questions or feedback you can connect directly with ⁠⁠Surani Fernando⁠⁠ on LinkedIn or email: raisingbiotech@gmail.com Title music composed by: Yrii Semchyshyn (Coma Media)

Season five of The JP Emerson Show opens with a never‑before‑told story and the guest who unknowingly helped launch the entire podcast: longtime friend Cristy Lee. JP reveals for the first time how an interview he recorded with Cristy just as the COVID‑19 pandemic shut down production, lost its intended home, was published on his own website, and went so viral within 24 hours that it crashed his site — ultimately sparking the creation of the show.Together, JP and Cristy revisit that moment and dive into everything since, from her recent public appearances and wildly popular television shows to her car‑themed wedding at the Packard Proving Grounds, her HGTV and real‑estate projects, and her winter garage plans. Cristy also opens up about her battle with Graves' disease and thyroid eye disease, sharing the surgeries, setbacks, and strength behind her return to filming and her commitment to supporting others with autoimmune conditions.Mixed with dream‑garage talk, classic Mopars, BMW 2002 fantasies, music, friendly competition with her husband, John Hawkins, and a fun Q&A, this premiere blends history, heart, and horsepower in a way only Cristy and JP can.https://www.jpemerson.com/post/garage-squad-s-cristy-lee-how-a-solid-foundation-prepared-her-for-full-throttle-successConnect with Cristy here:https://cristylee.tv/https://www.facebook.com/CristyLeeOfficialhttps://www.instagram.com/cristylee09/https://x.com/cristylee09 Connect with Red Line Oil:www.redline.comConnect with Mecum Auctions:www.Mecum.comConnect with JP Emerson: www.jpemerson.comOlivia “Liv” Harper, Executive Partner, PR, Marketing & Distribution: www.jpemerson.com

Peter Bohn ist einer der beiden Executive Partner beim Weinhandelshaus P. J. Valckenberg (der andere ist Tilman Queins) – einem Haus mit Geschichte (Peter Joseph Valckenberg gründete das Weinexporthaus 1786). Seit 2011 ist Bohn Geschäftsführer bei Valckenberg, 2015 haben er und Queins die Firma gekauft – und seitdem unter anderem den US-Markt entwickelt. Der hat sich in der jüngeren Vergangenheit, gelinde gesagt, als ein problematischer Markt erwiesen – in einer für die Weinwirtschaft weltweit eh nicht gerade problemlosen Situation. Darüber reden wir – und was man machen kann, um dem zu begegnen: andere Märkte entwickeln. Da ist unser Thema, natürlich, das Segment der alkoholfreien Weine. In einem anderen großen Block reden wir über die Zeit vor dem Valckenberg-Engagement: 1996 kam Peter Bohn nach Sachsen, er fing auf Schloss Proschwitz im Marketing und Vertrieb an. "Das waren extrem geniale Jahre – und extrem harte Jahre!", schwärmt Bohn – der in Westhofen (Rheinhessen) arbeitet, aber nach wie vor im sächsischen Meißen wohnt.Mehr Infos bei den STIPvisiten[00:00] zu Gast bei Peter Bohn in Meißen[12:04] wollen wir über die Zeit bei Proschwitz sprechen?[23:10] Kopf schlägt Kapital – Budgetdenken ist eine der größten Unsitten![36:03] was trinken wir eigentlich beim Gespräch?

Im Kontext des Klimawandels und all seiner Unterthemen wie CO2-Reduktion, Materialeffizienz oder Flächenverbrauch erscheint das Bauen im Bestand fast ideal zu sein. Scheint, denn immer noch wird das Bauen im Bestand als zu wenig attraktiv für Investoren und Planerinnen angesehen. Der „Bau-Turbo“ zielt auf den Neubau. Wie kann das Bauen im Bestand attraktiver gemacht werden? Ist Bauen im Bestand nur eine Verpflichtung im Sinne des Klimaschutzes oder auch eine Chance für architektonische Innovation? Für Antworten auf diese und weitere Fragen sind wir zu gmp Architekten nach Berlin gereist, unserem Heftpartner für die November-Ausgabe der DBZ mit eben dem Titelthema „Bauen im Bestand“. Mit am Mikro sitzen Stephan Schütz, Executive Partner bei gmp und dort mit dem Bauen im Bestand befasst, sowie sein Kollege Christian Hellmund, ebenso Partner, die uns auch verraten haben, welches Gebäude sie persönlich noch gern umbauen würden und warum. Das DBZ-Team sind Heide Teschner und Benedikt Kraft.

Send us a textThis episode of the Customer Success Playbook welcomes Cairo Marsh, Founder and Executive Partner of Relative, for a thought-provoking conversation on empathy-led marketing. Cairo shares his top tip for organizations seeking to harness empathy as a competitive advantage: focus on value at every touchpoint. From Patagonia's purpose-driven branding to the basics of transactional incentives, Cairo offers real-world examples of brands that resonate by placing customer needs front and center. It's not just marketing—it's relationship building at scale.Detailed Analysis: In this crisp yet powerful episode, Cairo Marsh challenges traditional marketing mindsets by reframing empathy as a strategic asset rather than a soft skill. He lays out a pragmatic approach to empathetic marketing that begins with a deceptively simple question: "What does your audience need right now?" It's not about gimmicks or grand gestures but about delivering meaningful value at every interaction.Using brands like Patagonia as a compass, Cairo underscores how value can transcend the transactional. Patagonia's commitment to sustainability offers customers purpose beyond product—a model for values-driven engagement that earns loyalty. On the flip side, Cairo doesn't shy away from acknowledging that even simple sweepstakes or incentives can serve as valid forms of value, as long as they're designed with the customer's benefit in mind.The conversation also touches on the psychological shift needed within companies. Empathy isn't a campaign—it's a culture. And it begins with a genuine interest in your customer's world. Cairo likens this to personal relationships, where curiosity and attentiveness build trust. Businesses should behave less like sociopaths (his words, not ours) and more like thoughtful partners.Whether you're building a brand or fine-tuning your customer journey, this episode is a potent reminder: empathy scales. It informs marketing, strengthens loyalty, and enhances every element of the customer success playbook.Now you can interact with us directly by leaving a voice message at https://www.speakpipe.com/CustomerSuccessPlaybookCheck out https://funnelstory.ai/ for more details about Funnelstory.
