Late on Sunday, President Trump reversed course and is now backing a vote compelling the DOJ to release more documents relating to Jeffrey Epstein. The issue has led to a split between Trump and one of his biggest supporters, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. The Bulwark’s Will Sommer explains. Pope Leo recently criticized Trump’s immigration policies. Reuters reporter Joshua McElwee joins to discuss how the pontiff’s words led the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops to take action. Startups funded by powerful billionaires in Silicon Valley are pushing the boundaries of reproductive genetics. The Wall Street Journal’s Emily Glazer breaks down some of the controversial practices. Plus, the Trump administration began an immigration crackdown in Charlotte, Tehran might be evacuated because of Iran’s water crisis, and why Academy officials are telling members to actually watch Oscar-contending movies this year if they want to vote. Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.

Emily Arthur and Sharon Dranko became friends while working at West Elm—the two became business partners when they realized there was a hole in the market for a product-focused, design-forward approach to kitchen cabinetry. They launched Isla Porter only last year, but have already made a splash in the industry, collaborating with designers like Monica Stewart of the Misfit House, Anne McDonald, and Jenna Chused.On this episode of the podcast, Arthur and Dranko discuss about why they launched with an AI message but have since dialed it back, the unique story behind the name Isla Porter, and how working together as friends has helped them through the ups and downs of starting a company.This episode is sponsored by LoloiLINKSIsla PorterDennis ScullyBusiness of Home
Today, we have a special episode correlated with Fraud awareness week, and brought to you by our friends at SEON - the command center for fraud prevention and AML compliance. SEON connects first party data signals to show you what other solutions can't - by enriching data, understanding context, and taking action from one place... to prevent fraud.In this episode, we are talking with Husnain "HB" Bajwa, SVP of Product & Risk Solutions. He has been a fraud and risk leader for 30+ years, and leads innovation in fraud prevention and compliance at SEON. HB is going to touch on important topics in the fraud detection and prevention space, such as AI, regulatory pressures, and the perspectives of startups that can get them into trouble.Questions:You've spent a lot of time in the world of fraud and compliance. What first drew you to solving these kinds of problems?Startups often focus on growth first and worry about fraud later. What's the hidden risk in that mindset?Why do you believe fraud prevention and AML compliance are converging, and what are the benefits of them living in the same system?AI gets talked about a lot, but in your view, what are the real, practical ways it's improving fraud and AML work today?We're seeing more regulatory pressure globally. How can organizations prepare for 2026 to ensure they are taking a risk-based approach to compliance?I know your team's been working on some big innovations, including a new compliance suite built on top of your fraud prevention stack and new AI-driven tools. How are these helping investigators connect the dots faster and uncover hidden relationships, especially when it comes to complex cases?What advice would you give to early-stage startups that might think they're ‘too small' to be targeted by fraudsters?Linkshttps://seon.io/https://www.linkedin.com/in/hbajwa/Our Sponsors:* Check out Incogni: https://incogni.com/codestory* Check out NordVPN: https://nordprotect.com/codestorySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story-insights-from-startup-tech-leaders/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Master Your Cashflow (Templates Included): https://startup-ideas-pod.link/money-map On this episode, I share my simple financial operating system that helps me run my business. I share actual workflows that have saved one of my portfolio company from an 11-week runway crisis (when they thought they had 8 months), and the templates behind his 13-week cash tracker, Bear/Base/Bull decision framework, and one-page board report. This is a rare look inside the tactics I use to think about cash flow, dilution strategy, and building companies that don't run out of runway by accident.

-Jeff Bezos is spearheading a new AI start-up called Project Prometheus, focused on his current interests in space and engineering. The New York Times reported that the company, which has yet to be made public, will reportedly have $6.2 billion in funding. Part of that sum will come from Bezos, who will act as co-CEO. -Rivian's electric mobility spinoff named Also announced a $3,500 starting price for its first e-bike called the TM-B.

Marco Hoffmann war vor drei Jahren bereits zu Gast im Podcast, damals als Mitgründer von SWISS Gate AG, einem aufstrebenden Startup im legalen Cannabis-Bereich. In dieser neuen Folge spricht er offen, ehrlich und reflektiert über das, was danach kam: der Konkurs. SWISS Gate wurde einst mit mehreren Millionen Franken bewertet, hatte Investoren an Bord, wuchs stark im E-Commerce, doch dann kam die gesetzliche Wende: Die Bestsellerprodukte durften plötzlich nicht mehr verkauft werden. Umsatz weg, Businessmodell kaputt und die versuchte Transformation Richtung B2B und vegane Hanfprodukte im Retail funktionierte nicht schnell genug. Marco erzählt: • Wie es ist, wenn der Kontostand schrumpft, der Lohn gestrichen wird und du trotzdem kämpfst • Wie der Gang zum Konkursamt tatsächlich abläuft, juristisch, emotional, organisatorisch • Was es bedeutet, privat für Mietverträge und Bankkredite zu bürgen – und wie er 18 Monate lang seine Schulden abbezahlte • Warum sein Netzwerk trotz Scheitern zu ihm hielt und er schnell wieder eine neue Stelle fand

Kaum Steuern, kaum Regulierungen, maximale Forschungsfreiheit - auf einer honduranischen Insel in der Karibik entsteht eine Privatstadt. In Próspera können Firmen ihren eigenen Rechtsrahmen wählen. Das zieht Start-Ups und Libertäre aus aller Welt an, auch Milliardäre aus dem Silicon Valley. «Ich habe sieben Chips implantiert», sagt US-Amerikaner Rich Lee. «Hier in der Hand, das ist meine Kreditkarte, damit kann ich bargeldlos an der Kasse bezahlen.» Das löse viele schräge Blicke aus, erzählt der 47-jährige lachend. Rich Lee glaubt, dass der menschliche Körper aktiv verbessert werden müsse. «Unsere Sinne und Fähigkeiten müssen erweitert werden, egal, ob durch Gentherapie oder Cyborg-Implantate.» Er probiert seine Forschungsergebnisse gleich an sich selber aus. Das ist möglich in Próspera. Hier gibt es keine Gesundheitsbehörde und keine Ethikkommission. Wer ein Unternehmen registriert, braucht lediglich einen Versicherer, der bereit ist, das Risiko zu übernehmen. Bezahlen kann man in Bitcoin. Alles in privater Hand. Próspera gilt als Vorzeigemodell in der sogenannten Privatstadtbewegung, die durch Geld und Macht aus dem Silicon Valley vorangetrieben wird. Libertäre Milliardäre wie Paypal-Gründer Peter Thiel oder Brian Armstrong, der Gründer von Coinbase, investieren darin. Der Staat Honduras, zu dem die Karibikinsel mit Próspera gehört, hat das Nachsehen.
In this special live Web Summit edition from Lisbon, I sit down with Tom Haworth, founder of D13 AI, to talk about why “good enough” AI might actually be one of the most dangerous places we can get stuck.And you'll hear Tom say it's time for the leaders of vibe coding platforms (e.g. Lovable, Replit, Cursor) to acknowledge that they're great when you need to “demo not memo”, but not great (today and maybe ever) at delivering production-grade, secure code. We also make a few detours as we detail a ridiculous week in Lisbon, including:How (shocker!) 90% of the conference was about AIWhy “good enough” AI is not a good place to beWhether we'll graduate to great AIAI's ROI now and in the futureWhy it's still iffy whether AI agents they can be trusted to accomplish complex jobsRobots wander Web Summit, do the Macarena, fall downHow tennis great Maria Sharapova uses (IBM's) AI How the presumptuous Web Summit's app prominently suggests we all message Maria… (as if!)

In this episode of Investor Connect, Hall Martin speaks with Iga Hallberg, Business Development Lead at EV Realty, which develops, deploys, and operates grid-ready charging hubs for commercial fleets. The discussion encompasses Hallberg's extensive experience in electrification and renewable energy, focusing on the creation of sophisticated commercial vehicle charging hubs. Backed by significant private equity investments, EV Realty aims to develop a national network of these sites, primarily in regions like California, Washington, New York, and New Jersey. The conversation shifts to the investable thesis for charging infrastructure, highlighting substantial trends in commercial fleet electrification, particularly within major ports and urban centers. Hallberg elaborates on the criticality of power access, grid constraints, and the strategic partnerships forming to support large-scale infrastructure projects. Hallberg delves into the main business models in the charging hub market, explaining how different sectors like last mile delivery, ride-share, and school buses influence infrastructure design and financing. She notes the growing involvement of real estate developers and utility companies in providing charging solutions and discusses the importance of de-risking projects through solid customer contracts. With the sector witnessing the transition from pilot projects to fully-financed infrastructure assets, Hallberg emphasizes the transformative impact of this shift on the broader energy and mobility landscape. The podcast also touches on the current challenges and opportunities in the industry, such as navigating federal and state policies, adapting to changes in the incentive landscape, and optimizing returns through strategic site selection. The episode concludes with a look at successful past projects and insights into optimal partnership structures between developers, utilities, real estate owners, and fleet operators. Hallberg highlights the significance of energy as a service and its potential to revolutionize various segments, from heavy-duty commercial vehicles to light-duty passenger electric vehicles. Listeners are encouraged to consider the evolving dynamics of the electric vehicle charging market and the compelling investment opportunities it presents.

How To Evaluate AI Startups for Investment Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Artificial intelligence brings a new type of startup to the investor for funding. Here is how to evaluate AI startups for investment. Market opportunity. For new applications that have never been done before, AI offers a greenfield opportunity. Estimate the current size of the target market and the value of selling to each one. This often generates an outsized total available market as one solution could cover the entire market. For existing applications that AI enhances, use the existing sales figures for products sold into the market and add the incremental value of the AI-enabled product. Product opportunity. Review how AI-enablement will enhance the capabilities of the product. Will this be a major or minor productivity improvement? Moat. How much of a moat will AI bring to the product? The more algorithm tuning and training data used, the stronger the moat. Deployment. What will it take to deploy the solution? The broader the go-to-market strategy, the more valuable the product. Consider these elements in evaluating an AI startup for investment. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Please follow, share, and leave a review.
