Summary:a.k.a. Brands have seen incredible success bringing their digitally native brands into the physical marketplace.

He was previously CFO at Samsclub.com, and held other leadership positions at Walmart's e-commerce division, as well as at CBS, CNET Networks and KPMG.Ciaran joins us to break down the test and repeat strategy, and explains why it can be so effective at minimizing guesswork and mitigating risk.

In this episode of WorldView with Swasti, Dr Swasti Rao, Consulting Editor and Foreign Policy Expert, speaks with Gregory Priolon, former Intelligence Analyst at the French Air Force and Expert at “Intelligence Online”. The discussion uncovers risks of military technology leakage as global air-to-air warfare evolves. From expansion of the “Rafale Club” to the role of Pakistani pilots accessing Rafale's EW suite through countries like Qatar, the discussion highlights the dangers of cross-cutting defence value chains. This episode dives deep into the vulnerabilities surrounding the Rafale ecosystem and its electronic warfare suite, Spectra, through sales to countries that are detrimental to India's interests. The conversation highlights why Rafale exports to certain countries like Qatar and potentially to Bangladesh should raise red flags for India, how Qatari training programmes could expose sensitive systems to Pakistani pilots and the growing challenge posed by Turkey's expertise in reverse engineering. With Rafale central to both France's nuclear doctrine and India's frontline fleet, the episode closes by stressing why New Delhi must demand stronger guarantees in the next Rafale deal (MRFA) and build more sovereign countermeasures to safeguard its technological edge. #rafale #operationsindoor #pakistan #france #china #trump #defense

In this episode of the Canary Cast, Florian Hagenbuch, Co-Founder and General partner at Canary, sits down with Jose Gedeon, co-founder and CEO of Cobre, a Colombian fintech building the real-time B2B payments and cross-border infrastructure powering finance teams across Latin America. From his early fascination with M-Pesa’s case at the University of Pennsylvania, to failed attempts at building his own mobile money business in Colombia, a stint as a consultant at McKinsey New York, and a role at Oyo in Mexico, José shares how each chapter of his journey shaped the vision for Cobre. What started as white-label wallets for meal vouchers during the pandemic evolved into Colombia’s leading real-time B2B payments platform, now expanding rapidly into Mexico and cross-border flows. During the episode, José reflects on the unique challenges of scaling a fintech in LatAm, the pivotal customer moments that unlocked entirely new business lines, and the ambition of turning Cobre into the default infrastructure for payments across the region. In this episode, we dive into: From White-Label Wallets to Infrastructure: How Cobre pivoted from building digital wallets for meal vouchers into real-time B2B payments and treasury management. Cross-Border Breakthroughs: The customer emergency that sparked Cobre’s cross-border product and how it led to a new revenue line. The Role of Stablecoins: Why stablecoins are becoming increasingly relevant in illiquid or high-cost currency corridors like Colombia, Turkey, and Argentina. Scaling in Mexico: How Cobre reached $100M in monthly volume in only 8 months in Mexico—10x faster than in Colombia. Vision for the Future: Why Jose believes it’s still “day zero” for Cobre and how the company aims to become the de facto B2B payment infrastructure for LatAm. Founder Lessons: Biggest mistakes, wins, and the cultural values that define the Cobre team. Whether you’re a founder, operator, or fintech enthusiast, this episode offers a masterclass in product pivots, client-focused culture, scaling infrastructure in emerging markets, and building with ambition in one of the most dynamic regions in the world. Tune in to hear how Cobre is not only modernizing payments in Colombia and Mexico, but also shaping the future of financial infrastructure across Latin America. Guest: Jose GedeonJose is the co-founder and CEO of Cobre, a fintech modernizing B2B payments and cross-border infrastructure in Latin America. Cobre moves billions annually, already processing ~3% of Colombia’s GDP, and recently raised its Series B led by Oak HC/FT, with participation from Canary and other global investors.

Read, Write, Own by Chris DixonTranscrição do Episódio em Português: Hoje, estamos movimentando cerca de 3% do PIB da Colômbia dentro da Cobre.É um número muito grande.Mas, ao mesmo tempo, também é pequeno.Copo meio cheio, copo meio vazio.Isso nos dá bastante espaço para crescer. Agora, mudando para o inglês, para facilitar um pouco para você.José, muito obrigado por estar aqui. Agradeço por dedicar seu tempo. Estou muito animado para conversar com você. Como contexto, o José é cofundador e CEO da Cobre, uma fintech colombiana que está se expandindo para o México. Vocês rapidamente se tornaram uma das principais plataformas de pagamentos B2B em tempo real e de gestão de tesouraria corporativa na Colômbia — e, em breve, também no México. Sob sua liderança, muitas coisas empolgantes aconteceram. Vocês já escalam para centenas de empresas nesses dois países. Estão movimentando algo em torno de 18 bilhões em volume anual em folha de pagamento e pagamentos a fornecedores.E, o mais importante, estão se tornando uma camada crítica de infraestrutura para times financeiros modernos na região. Estou muito animado com este episódio, em mergulhar na sua jornada empreendedora, José, como a Cobre está modernizando os pagamentos corporativos, o cenário fintech na América Latina de forma mais ampla e, claro, a visão que você tem para o futuro da companhia. José, obrigado por se juntar a nós. É um prazer enorme ter você aqui hoje. José:Florian, o prazer é meu. A Canary foi a primeira firma de venture capital que acreditou na Cobre — e também o primeiro investimento de vocês fora do Brasil. Na época, nós até dissemos ao Marcos que expandiríamos para o Brasil… ainda não aconteceu.Mas tem sido uma ótima história até aqui, e vocês têm sido apoiadores incríveis. Obrigado. Florian:Sim, lembro bem disso. Inclusive, naquela época vocês tinham outro nome, não era? Acho que era “Pexto”, se não me engano.As coisas mudam, mas estamos felizes que deu certo. José, talvez possamos começar um pouco falando do seu histórico e da sua trajetória pessoal. Pode nos contar sobre sua origem e o que você fazia antes de empreender? José:Claro. Eu nasci e cresci em uma cidade pequena da Colômbia chamada Cartagena. Hoje é turística e bastante conhecida, mas, quando eu crescia lá, era apenas um destino nacional, relativamente pequeno. Eu, inclusive, nasci em Barranquilla porque minha mãe era de lá — que é ainda menor.De Barranquilla vêm muitas coisas conhecidas: Shakira, a Avianca (nossa companhia aérea nacional), e as últimas duas empresas colombianas que abriram capital nos EUA também são de lá.É uma cidade muito empreendedora. Talvez um bom precedente para a Cobre, não é? Venho de uma família de imigrantes libaneses — extremamente trabalhadores e empreendedores. Cresci aprendendo, por osmose, o que significava ser um empresario. Homens e mulheres da minha família sempre fundaram e até hoje administram empresas. Era um ambiente muito natural para acabar trilhando o caminho que trilhei. Depois tive o privilégio de estudar na Universidade da Pensilvânia. Meu primo Felipe — hoje cofundador da Cobre — estudava lá um ano antes de mim. Eu nunca achei que conseguiria entrar, mas consegui, e fui para a Penn cursar a graduação. No meu primeiro ano, li um business case sobre a M-Pesa, considerada precursora do dinheiro móvel — e, por consequência, de boa parte do que chamamos hoje de fintech: Zelle, Venmo, Paytm, GCash…A ideia original surgiu da M-Pesa, um serviço criado pela Vodafone que permitia às pessoas enviar dinheiro via SMS. Hoje, algo como 20% do PIB do Quênia transita pela M-Pesa. É completamente ubíquo. Inspirado nisso, tentei várias vezes criar algo parecido na Colômbia durante meus verões na Penn, mas obviamente falhei — afinal, eu não era uma empresa de telecomunicações. Ainda assim, essa experiência me mostrou como uma infraestrutura de pagamentos em tempo real poderia transformar a vida de milhões de pessoas e empresas. Ao me formar, voltei para a Colômbia para tentar de novo. E falhei mais uma vez. Foi aí que percebi: “o problema sou eu, preciso aprender a construir empresas de verdade”. Então fui trabalhar na McKinsey em Nova York. Passei um ano e meio lá e tive como cliente uma das maiores gestoras de venture capital do mundo. Eu era apenas analista júnior na equipe, mas aprendi muito sobre como os VCs pensam. Isso me levou a largar o emprego em Nova York e me mudar para a Cidade do México, para trabalhar na Oyo Rooms, um dos grandes unicórnios da Índia. A ideia era aprender mais sobre startups de hiperescala do que eu aprenderia ficando na consultoria. Fiquei um ano e meio na Oyo — até a pandemia começar. Com a COVID, percebi: “este é o momento certo para digitalizar pagamentos na Colômbia”. As empresas estavam forçadas a mudar. E foi quando decidi voltar a Bogotá, em junho de 2020, para tentar mais uma vez. E agora, cá estamos. Florian:Muito interessante. Não sabia de todas essas tentativas que não deram certo antes.Aliás, eu também estudei na Penn, me formei em 2010. Você foi alguns anos depois, certo? José:Sim, me formei em 2018. E naquela época, o ambiente ainda era mais voltado para carreiras tradicionais. A maioria queria ir para consultoria, bancos de investimento ou fundos. Eu era um dos poucos insistindo em empreender já na graduação. Participei até de competições de startups do MBA, porque não havia para undergrad. (continua na mesma estrutura — alternando Florian / José, até o final da conversa que você compartilhou).

Send us a textSure we talked about #Yankees 9 home runs in one game last week - that's the 2nd time it's happened this season which is a first!  #Phillies Zach Wheeler has surgery and is out for the season - awful.  #Brewers #Cubs #Dodgers #Padres are all good teams and will be tough in the playoffs. #Tigers Tarik Skubal and #RedSox Garret Crochet are pitching horses which is more special than ever. #Blue Jays catcher Alejandro Kirk steals his first base ever after 2,000+ games!  #Rangers continue to disappoint. #Orioles sign another catcher to an 8 year deal after one week in #MLB. Huh? What happened to Adley Rutschman? Our stat of the week is good ole fashioned batting average.  #NationalLeague has had batting champions for 150 years, the #AmericanLeague for 125 years. Do we really want to pull away from that long and amazing history? Batting average may not be the be-all and end-all offensive stat but we think it's still important. Intro & Outro music this season courtesy of Mercury Maid!

Ever feel paralyzed when you get conflicting advice from different business experts? You're not alone.If you've ever found yourself asking multiple coaches the same question, getting different answers, and feeling more confused than when you started, this episode will change everything for you.The truth is, every time you seek external validation for your business decisions without checking in with yourself first, you're rewiring your brain to believe that everyone else knows better than you. This creates a dependency that keeps you stuck in decision paralysis instead of building the self-trust muscle you need to create a business that actually aligns with who you are.In this episode, I'm sharing why copy-paste strategies rarely work for most people, how your brain's need for certainty keeps you seeking external validation, and the exact framework I use with my clients to help them make decisions from a place of alignment rather than anxiety.You'll also hear a real-time example from my Foundations to Flow group where a client had to choose between two conflicting strategies - and why her decision surprised me (but made me so proud).Key Points Covered:✨ Why asking multiple experts the same question leaves you more confused✨ The neurological reason your brain craves external validation over self-trust✨ How copy-paste strategies ignore your unique strengths and values✨ The difference between receiving advice from inner knowing vs. inner panic✨ Questions to ask yourself when evaluating conflicting business advice✨ Why "everything works" but not everything will work for YOUIf you're tired of endlessly scrolling for the "right" strategy or feeling dependent on others for your business decisions, this episode will help you start rebuilding trust in your own intuition and business instincts.

News and Updates: Australia will ban social media accounts for anyone under 16 starting December 10, making it the first country to enact such a rule. The law, passed with 77% public support, puts enforcement on tech companies and aims to boost youth mental health, though teens and advocates argue it removes spaces for connection rather than fixing harmful features. The U.S. autonomous vehicle industry is stuck in limbo after Elon Musk's DOGE initiative gutted the Office of Automation Safety. Without regulators to set standards or grant exemptions, companies face delays and legal uncertainty. Lawmakers now urge DOT to rehire staff to untangle the mess. The FAA proposed a sweeping rule to allow drones to fly beyond visual line of sight at altitudes up to 400 feet. If approved, it would expand commercial uses such as deliveries, agriculture, and surveying. Amazon and Walmart already have FAA drone delivery approval, but safety and airspace restrictions remain. SpaceX is pressuring states to divert federal broadband grants from fiber to Starlink, calling fiber “wasteful.” In Louisiana, 91.5% of $500M in BEAD funds went to fiber, while Starlink only received $7.75M. SpaceX claims bias, but state officials cite fiber's scalability and satellite limitations. Internal documents show SpaceX has paid little to no federal income tax since its 2002 founding, despite billions in government contracts. Nearly $5.4B in accumulated tax losses let the company indefinitely shield future profits, thanks to a 2017 Trump tax change. Critics say the break was meant for struggling startups, not thriving contractors. England's National Drought Group urged citizens to delete old emails to conserve water as the country faces its worst drought since 1976. Data centers use vast water supplies for cooling—Google's Oregon site consumed 355M gallons in 2021. The call highlights growing tension between AI/data infrastructure and local water security.

In this episode of Grow a Small Business, host Troy Trewin interviews Joe Zentmyer, Founder of Snaggletooth Goby, shares his entrepreneurial journey from leaving corporate life at Kraft Foods to co-founding First Ascent Rock Climbing, which grew to seven gyms before being sold in 2021. He explains how his passion for aquariums led him to purchase and expand a local store into a growing business, adding recurring revenue streams and online sales. Joe reflects on the challenges of scaling during COVID, including managing hundreds of employees and navigating shutdowns. He highlights the importance of numbers, people management, and hiring the right team for growth. Finally, he offers advice on resilience, balance, and building a strong culture while scaling a small business. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? Joe Zentmyer shares that the hardest part of growing a small business is the pace of decision-making and filtering feedback. He explains that entrepreneurs often hear only the extremes—overly positive or overly negative voices—while the real insights usually lie in the middle. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Joe Zentmyer told that one of the most impactful books for him is “The Energy Bus” by Jon Gordon, which focuses on motivating people, getting them aligned, and building positive momentum within a team. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Joe Zentmyer shares that he listens widely to many business podcasts and online resources, cycling through different voices to absorb as much knowledge as possible. He believes entrepreneurs should avoid sticking to just one source and instead learn from a wide range of perspectives. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Joe Zentmyer shares that small business owners should not hesitate to invest in simple online apps and tools that save time on repetitive tasks. Even spending $20–$50 a month on the right software can free up valuable hours, making efficiency a key growth resource. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Joe Zentmyer shares that if he could go back, he would tell himself to believe in the journey and enjoy the ride.

This is part six of an eight-part series on the energetics of the days of the week, and today we're hookin' our wagons to Jupiter. Thursday is ruled by Jupiter—expansive, abundant, lucky (if there is such a thing). Jupiter energy is about vastness, generosity, and selflessness. When we honour Thursday's expansive power, we can use it to teach, to reach out, to be generous—and more wisdom and abundance flows in. The Life Area that pairs with Thursdays is Mind + Emotions. This is the day to think higher thoughts, to neutralize emotions, to focus on learning, sharing wisdom, and expanding through service. Expansion energy in action. The key to working with Thursday's Jupiter vibe? Selflessness.  Expansion happens more naturally when we focus on serving others. When you come from a place of seva—of loving service—the abundance flows back to you naturally. Generous people always have more to give. In this episode:  Why Jupiter makes Thursday the day of abundance and expansion The Life Area of Mind + Emotions and how to work with it The best activities to schedule on Thursdays How Team D uses Jupiter's expansive energy for classes, workshops and live events MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: The 2026 Centered Planner VIP List—available exclusively through presale starting Sunday, August 24!

The International Space Station has been serving as a major research center in space for over 25 years, but its time is coming to an end with a planned deorbit in 2030. Should we end this expensive experiment in space, or are we squandering a $150 billion resource? Lynn Harper, the Lead for Integrative Studies at the NASA Ames Space Portal, joins us to discuss some of the amazing research taking place aboard the ISS. We've all heard about crystal growth and so forth, but how about the promising work done on cancer treatments? Or the growing of replacement retinas?
