The Forbidden Worlds Film Festival reviews conclude with 1962's Japanese Moby Dick adaptation; The Whale God Mike & Spider-Dan delve into the 1962 kaiju/Moby Dick movie The Whale God, which Mike was hugely looking forward to watching but it has some controversial topics within – although it's not gratuitous, note the sexual assault trigger warning. Neither Mike or Dan had seen or heard of this movie before, due to its non-existent UK release, so they were excited to watch it on an IMAX screen at Forbidden Worlds – they review the movie in-depth, talking about the plot, dialogue and kaiju for the first 30 minutes, then give the trigger warning and discuss the sexual assault scenes and the plot implications & character reactions that follow. Although this is the last review, Mike & Dan still have some interviews to release, so keep an eye out for those before GCC returns to the more regular interview-style pods! Make sure you check out their reviews of Battle Beyond The Stars, Orca & She Creature on this feed, and check out Spider-Dan's feed for the other half of their reviews, including Waterworld, The City Of Lost Children, Tremors and more!

Saudi Arabia isn't following leadership trends. It's setting them. In Part 2 of this bold and insightful conversation, David Jones (CEO of Mercer Talent Enterprise) returns to explore how Saudi and UAE organisations are reshaping the global leadership narrative — with female leaders rising, young talent accelerating, and cultural shifts driving innovation.

The Cultural & Economic Ripple Effect → How inclusive leadership is shifting Saudi's global image → Why brands are prioritizing gender-aligned teams to reflect customer power → What Saudi's transformation means for regional benchmarks 3. Building Future-Ready Leaders → The paradoxes modern leaders must navigate → Why followership is just as important as leadership → The surprising innovation potential inside call centres and frontline teams Data + insights you'll remember: ✅Saudi now outpaces India in female workforce growth ✅Innovation scores are often highest in frontline staff ✅Gen Z talent expects empowered leadership, not micromanagement ✅Many high-potential women are still invisible without structured assessments Tools & strategies covered: ✅ Thriving Index – uncover strengths + traits that drive workplace performance ✅ Element X – benchmark well-being at individual and org-wide levels ✅ Lighthouse platform – the "Netflix of assessments" for GCC talent teams ✅ Advice for HR: how to design inclusive pipelines, avoid tokenism, and unlock hidden leaders Books by David Jones: The Future of Assessments Game Changers (female leadership in MENA) Unlocking the Paradox of Plenty

Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn   https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com When most of us hear the word “lifecycle,” we normally assume they are talking about the Software Development Lifecycle. Today, we are going to vary that concept and discuss the Contract Lifecycle and its management. It has been recognized as a part of systems management, so it has developed its own abbreviation: Contract Lifecycle Management, or CLM. Our guest is Ryan Donley from Icertis. He highlights the shift from traditional methods like Excel spreadsheets to modern digital platforms. Much like software, the CLM can be divided into pre-award, post-award, compliance, and closeout areas. Every agency oversees this sequence in a unique manner. Ryan Donley points out that some organizations still use Excel spreadsheets for this task. He recommends that people realize that antiquated processes can limit your ability to have accurate information and can cause reporting to be delayed. Further, when a system is automated, coordination between departments is accelerated, and issues like compliance can be acted upon quickly. Icertis operates on a single-tenant GCC high cloud with Microsoft, ensuring security and compliance.

In this episode, Adil Hussain, a partner at Baker McKenzie, talks to IFN Editor Nessreen Tamano about the anticipated shifts in the industry in relation to AAOIFI's Standard 62, and the regulatory challenges and evolving market trends in the GCC.

"Many UAE banks have seen sustainable finance as a profit center", says Vijay Bains, Group Chief Sustainability Officer and Head of ESG at Emirates NBD. In this episode of ESG Currents, Grace Osborne, BI’s ESG integration analyst for EMEA, speaks with Bains about the rising momentum of sustainable finance in the GCC and its intertwinement with the region's economic diversification plans. With UAE's national banks' pledging to mobilize AED 1 trillion in sustainable finance by 2030, alongside strengthened Nationally Determined Contributions, opportunities for capturing sustainable value creation are mounting. From water scarcity solutions to green building initiatives, the GCC is scaling its sustainability ambitions at a time where other regions in the world appear to be stepping back.

On this episode of The Muslim Professionals Podcast, I sat down with Adam Ali, CEO and founder of The Uncommon Agency — a multi-channel Shopify Plus powerhouse working with global brands like Rare Beauty and Liquid Death.We got real. Adam shared his journey from growing up in a mixed-faith household in one of Liverpool's roughest neighborhoods, to building one of the most respected agencies in the Shopify ecosystem. We talked about the power of partnerships, scaling an agency without outside funding, breaking into new markets like the GCC, and why Muslims need to stop sleeping on the CPG wave.There's wisdom here for anyone navigating identity, building from nothing, or trying to figure out how to turn hustle into a high-impact business. This one's for the underdogs.

At Arm, open source is the default approach, with proprietary software requiring justification, says Andrew Wafaa, fellow and senior director of software communities. Speaking at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe, Wafaa emphasized Arm's decade-long commitment to open source, highlighting its investment in key projects like the Linux kernel, GCC, and LLVM. This investment is strategic, ensuring strong support for Arm's architecture through vital tools and system software.Wafaa also challenged the hype around GPUs in AI, asserting that CPUs—especially those enhanced with Arm's Scalable Matrix Extension (SME2) and Scalable Vector Extension (SVE2)—are often more suitable for inference workloads. CPUs offer greater flexibility, and Arm's innovations aim to reduce dependency on expensive GPU fleets.On the AI framework front, Wafaa pointed to PyTorch as the emerging hub, likening its ecosystem-building potential to Kubernetes. As a PyTorch Foundation board member, he sees PyTorch becoming the central open source platform in AI development, with broad community and industry backing.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest insights about Arm: Edge Wars Heat Up as Arm Aims to Outflank Intel, Qualcomm Arm: See a Demo About Migrating a x86-Based App to ARM64Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.
