Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.The Goldman Sachs Alternatives Summit “convened leaders across finance, geopolitics, technology, and culture” to discuss themes driving global markets.2025's Alternatives Summit was about “navigating a world in flux,” as the firm's recap of its event noted. The event aimed to help investors cut through the noise and put together the pieces of the puzzle in a dynamic and increasingly complex world. Alt Goes Mainstream joined the event to have unscripted conversations with Goldman Sachs Alternatives leaders to cut through the noise by unpacking key themes and trends at the intersection of private markets and private wealth.In this special series, we went behind the scenes and interviewed six Goldman Sachs Alternatives leaders about their current thinking on private markets and how the firm has built and evolved its private markets capabilities.This conversation was with Harold Hope, Partner, Global Head of Vintage Strategies, one of the world's largest secondary fund managers, in the External Investing Group (XIG) within Goldman Sachs Asset Management. He is also Chair of the XIG Vintage Funds Committee and a member of the XIG Real Estate Strategies Investment Committee and the XIG GP Strategies Investment Committee. Harold joined Goldman Sachs in 1999 as an Associate in Leveraged Finance and Corporate Finance within the Investment Banking Division and moved to the Alternative Investments & Manager Selection (now XIG) private equity business in 2001. He was named Managing Director in 2006 and Partner in 2016. Prior to joining the firm, Harold worked as a financial analyst at the investment banking boutique Bowles Hollowell Conner & Co. Harold earned a BA in Economics and Political Science from the University of North Carolina. Harold and I had a fascinating and timely conversation about the growth and evolution of the secondaries market. We discussed:Perspectives from Harold's early days in secondaries 25 years ago, when Goldman had raised its first $400M fund in secondaries and when the secondaries industry was doing around $2B per year in transaction volume.How the secondaries market is vastly different from five years ago. The evolution of innovation in the secondaries market.Why problem-solving is a defining feature of secondaries. What is the right skillset required to be a great secondaries investor?Why secondaries is fundamentally a valuation oriented business.Are secondaries returns driven by buying high-quality assets or by buying at steep discounts?Misconceptions about continuation vehicles and how the trend of private companies staying private longer impacts CVs.The how and the why behind Goldman's recent acquisition of Industry Ventures and why Goldman is excited about the opportunity set in venture and growth secondaries.Why scale matters in secondaries.Why secondaries might not become a traded market like the bank loan market and why secondaries may not fully achieve standardization because managers may not want completely uniform standardization.Why secondaries can be an on-ramp to private markets for private wealth investors.Thanks Harold for sharing your wisdom, expertise, and passion about secondaries and private markets.

David Wolfin, President and CEO, and Nathan Harte, CFO of Avino Silver and Gold Mines (TSX:ASM – NYSE:ASM), both join me for a video review of the key metrics and takeaways from the Q4 operations at both the Avino Mine and now with first production contributions from the La Preciosa Mine, both located in Durango, Mexico.  We also discuss the 30,000 meter drill program, with exploration divided equally across both project areas to increase resources, and outline the future growth initiatives and value proposition for the company.   We start off having David highlight the Company's 5-year production growth plan, to become a larger Mexican intermediate silver producer.  With the ramping up of development and first production at the La Preciosa Project in late 2025, this will lead to meaningful production growth in 2026 and beyond along side the Avino Mine. Then starting in 2028, the Tailings Project will further augment production and lower costs.   Fourth quarter 2025 production was 345,298 silver oz, 1,687 gold oz, 1,295,244 copper pounds (“lbs”), , for consolidated production of 671,583 silver equivalent (AgEq) ounces (oz), with over 50% of AgEq production coming from silver.   Full year 2025 production results of 1,157,828 silver oz, 7,621 gold oz and 5,667,996 of copper lbs for a total of 2.6 million AgEq oz. Full year production results were within thier production estimated guidance of 2.5 to 2.8 million silver equivalent ounces.   OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS – Q4 2025   Commenced Processing of La Preciosa Development Material: Avino commenced extraction, haulage and processing of mineralized development material from the La Preciosa Mine during the quarter at an average rate of 200 tonnes per day. In total, 11,995 tonnes of mineralized material were processed at the Avino milling and processing facility, which is located 19 kilometres away from the entrance to the La Preciosa Mine. Silver Production Increased 22%: Avino produced 345,298 silver equivalent ounces in Q4 2025, representing a strong increase from Q4 of 2024. The increase was driven by development production from La Preciosa, which contributed 48,244 silver ounces, as well as 6% higher silver production from the Avino Mine. Continued Elevated Mill Throughput: In Q4 2025, Avino achieved 4% higher mill throughput versus Q4 2024, totalling 189,338 tonnes of material. These throughput levels have been consistent throughout 2025 and were a result of upgrades and automation enhancements made by our operations and maintenance teams, resulting in significant improvements in mill availability. Rapid progress at La Preciosa: Avino announced the commencement of underground development at La Preciosa on January 15, 2025, and has been able to extract, haul, process and sell mineralized material from the mine in less than 1 year. Over 24,000 tonnes of material have been mined from La Preciosa in 2025. The Gloria and Abundancia veins have been intercepted on the San Fernando ramp that has been driven from surface to Level 3. Development mining is taking place in both directions, south and north of the ramp on each vein for a total of 4 working development faces. Avino had approximately US$100 million in cash as of December 31, 2025, as their balance sheet continues to strengthen in this high underlying metals price environment and in line with the company growth initiatives.     If you have any follow up questions for David regarding Avino Silver and Gold then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Avino Silver & Gold at the time of this recording.   Click here to follow the latest news from Avino Silver and Gold Mines   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

In this episode, Dr. Rob Harter sits down with Aidan Reilly, co-founder of The Farmlink Project, a nonprofit that began as a college passion project and grew into a national food recovery movement. What started in 2020 as two friends trying to make a difference during the COVID-19 pandemic quickly evolved into a logistics powerhouse that has since delivered over 350 million pounds of food—soon to be half a billion. Aidan shares the compelling origin story of Farmlink and how a group of students bridged the gap between farms with surplus food and food banks in desperate need. With impressive agility, grassroots organizing, and a deep sense of purpose, Farmlink has scaled nationwide and is now exploring international efforts. Aidan also discusses how Farmlink is addressing food waste, hunger, and climate change simultaneously—and how their innovative model may one day make their own work unnecessary. Key Topics Include: The founding of Farmlink during the pandemic by college students looking to make an impact How Farmlink grew from a local food rescue effort to a national nonprofit operating in 27+ states The logistics of moving nearly half a billion pounds of food and partnering with over 1,200 food banks and 400 farms The systemic causes of food waste in the U.S. and how Farmlink is creating long-term infrastructure solutions How Farmlink measures and communicates its climate and hunger relief impact to donors The role of AI, predictive analytics, and capacity mapping in scaling nonprofit operations Why public-private partnerships and policy advocacy are essential to solving food insecurity at scale Mentioned in This Episode: The Farmlink Project Abundance: The Farmlink Documentary (YouTube) This Episode is Sponsored By: DonorBox Links to Resources: Interested in Leadership and Life Coaching?

Ali Mogharabi wasn't shocked to see the stark rally in Alphabet (GOOGL). Cloud growth is one factor he points to when characterizing the Mag 7 stock's stunning climb from April lows, with Gemini 3.0 adding to its software moat. Additionally, Ali expects Alphabet's Waymo autonomous driving unit to become a market leader as the technology becomes more common. He later analyzes the company's chipmaking business as a potential disruptor to Nvidia (NVDA). ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Qualcom, a leading Irish provider of IT and cybersecurity services, has announced that it has invested €250,000 to support the continued expansion of its team and enhance facilities at its Dublin headquarters. Since the start of the year, the company has hired six support desk specialists - boosting the headcount within its support centre by 33% to 24 people. In turn, this equips Qualcom for future business growth. The increased capacity and capabilities within the support desk team will enable Qualcom to further expand its client base - particularly across managed and co-managed services. Furthermore, it will enable the company to better meet increasing customer demand for outsourced helpdesk services, driven by the growing need for highly-skilled technology talent to manage ever-increasing workloads. As well as bolstering the team, the investment also includes the rollout of cutting-edge technology platforms, new equipment, and a modernised office interior. This will help to improve efficiency and productivity within Qualcom's team, which consists of 76 cybersecurity and IT professionals across its locations in Dublin and Belfast. The investment comes as the organisation marks 30 years in business in 2025. Earlier this year, Qualcom announced that it expects to grow its revenues from €13.5 million to €18 million in the next three years, representing 10% year-on-year growth for the business by the end of 2027. Ken Ryan, Managing Director, Qualcom, said: "This investment in our people and business is futureproofing our operations as the demand for helpdesk support continues to grow. It equips our proactive customer-first team with the increased ability to meet the evolving needs of businesses, ensuring maximum IT uptime for customers and delivering right-first-time technical services. "In addition, we can better help businesses to fill the skills gaps within their organisations, relieving the mounting pressure on IT teams and ensuring that they can focus on growth and innovation. We are excited for the next chapter as we continue to add to our team at our state-of-the-art headquarters." See more stories here.

Paul Jones, VP of Corporate Development at Versamet Royalties (TSX.V: VMET), joins us to review the key metrics from the record Q3 financials, the recent news where Tether and the Lundin family have become strategic shareholders, and a look ahead to future mid-sized royalty and streaming transactions to grow. Additionally, we discuss the benefits of the coming big board US exchange listing.   Third Quarter 2025 Highlights    Record revenue of $8.1 million, an increase of 155% over Q3 2024.  Record attributable gold equivalent ounces (“GEOs”) of 2,699, an increase of 110% over Q3 2024.  Record operating cash flow before working capital changes of $6.1 million, an increase of 206% over Q3 2024.  Acquisition of a significant silver stream on the operating Rosh Pinah Zinc mine in Namibia and a polymetallic royalty on the operating Santa Rita mine in Brazil, both operated by Appian Capital Advisory Limited (“Appian”).  Inaugural royalty revenues from the Kiaka and Santa Rita mines.     Paul reviews the record Q3 revenues, GEOs and cash flow, and highlighted the immediate benefits of company's recent largest transaction to date with the acquisition of a significant silver stream on Rosh Pinah Zinc, a high-quality mine in Namibia that is currently undergoing an expansion, and a royalty on Santa Rita in Brazil, a top tier nickel-sulphide mine. The addition of these expanding cash-flowing assets have had a significant impact to Versamet's combined gold equivalent ounces, with ~10,000 GEOs projected in 2025, and up to ~20,000 GEOs by 2026.  This translates over to ~$70M in annual revenue targeted for next year, using consensus gold prices, and even higher than that at current spot prices.   We go on to discuss with Paul the Company's current valuation, their plans for growth through accretive acquisitions, and the advantage of the mid-size deal flow they can pursue as one of only a few mid-tier precious metals royalty and streaming companies.   Wrapping up Paul highlights the strong endorsement of the quality of their assets from the recent news of Tether Investments S.A. de C.V. and the Lundin Family Trusts both coming in as new 12.7% cornerstone shareholders of the Company respectively.  We also review the liquidity benefits, broader investor base, and potential for more ETF inclusion through the coming U.S. big board exchange listing.     If you have any questions for Paul regarding Versamet Royalties, then please email those in to us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from Versamet Royalties   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/   Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Barbara Schonhofer and Carmen Powell, two influential voices who have navigated and thrived in the ever-evolving insurance industry. In today's conversation we explore the sector's evolution, the future of work and best practices for continuous networking and development. KEY TAKEAWAYS When I started my career in 1972, men didn't know how to behave as women cam into their own in business and taking frontline roles. It wasn't so much misogyny that I faced, it was more like old geezers having a laugh, they didn't know how to welcome women into he workplace because it was less usual. I found my way by having humour and being smarter in my responses to them, so I sidestepped a lot of the banter in my early career. There were only a few predatory men, most just didn't know how to behave in front of women. I have always celebrated being different. Anything that was an idiosyncrasy was put down to the fact that I was Spanish, and that suited me fine! That served me well because I didn't have to follow the norms. However, when I interviewed for a very large organisation in the UK the HR director asked my how I was going to cope with men making a pass at me. I said that I was coming here to work and that if anybody crosses the line I knew how to deal with that. BEST MOMENTS ‘The men that were kindest to me didn't help me and the ones that gave me a tough time did business with me. I learned to keep my friends close and my enemies closer.' ‘The most wonderful boss I had was a woman, the rest have been men but, like Barbara, they gave me a hard time and pushed my boundaries enough so I knew I was resilient enough.' ‘With everything you take two steps forward and one step back.' ABOUT THE GUESTS Barbara Schonhofer's career in financial services covers four decades operating as a business leader and later as an executive search consultant to the insurance markets. When she began her career she set out to better understand the complexities of much needed culture change in insurance. During her years operating in financial services as an executive search consultant, Barbara challenged normal practices and spotted the need to bring together women leaders in the London Market to network. Alongside ISC-Group, Barbara co-founded and co-Chair GAIN, a non-profit membership organisation encouraging better understanding and inclusion of neurodiverse individuals in the insurance industry. She is a Freeman of the City of London and a member of the Worshipful Company of Insurers, where she co-founded its female network, iWIN. LinkedIn Carmen Powell is an experienced international marketing and business development professional whose strategic expertise is linked to a practical and positive approach to deliver challenging goals, including establishing new markets and reversing declining revenues whilst successfully navigating large and complex organisational matrices.
