She was a researcher at the Viennese Institute for Artificial Intelligence and Decision Support. Anna is also a member of the Global Shapers Community organized by the World Economic Forum and served as curator for the Vienna Hub. In this episode, we start by talking about Anna's Historical Map of (the) Cognitive Science(s) project. We discuss what counts as cognitive science, and go through some of the big theories and paradigms in cognitive science from the 19th century to the 21st century. We then talk about the Great Rationality Debate, and discuss topics like biases and heuristics, ecological rationality, and relevance realization. We also discuss whether rationality is mostly an individual or a social phenomenon, whether the rationality debate might have daily life applications, and the current state and future of the debate. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, HANS FREDRIK SUNDE, BERNARDO SEIXAS, OLAF ALEX, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, JOHN CONNORS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, DAN DEMETRIOU, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, ADANER USMANI, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, DANIEL FRIEDMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ANTON ERIKSSON, CHARLES MOREY, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Tosca Naletto joined Simon on the Breakfast Show to talk about the work that Global Shapers Luxembourg City Hub does and give a preview of their upcoming Shapeathon event. The Luxembourg Global Shapers Hub is part of the Global Shapers Community, an initiative launched by the World Economic Forum as a network of inspiring young people under the age of 30 working together to address local, regional and global challenges (almost 10,000 members worldwide, with more than 420 city based hubs in 154 countries). The mission of the Hub is to implement projects with a local impact in three main areas, (i) Climate Change & Sustainability, (ii) Active Citizenship and (iii) Education and employment. The Shapeathon is an event that aims to help local NGOs and startups having a positive social impact finding a solution to a "burning issue": a specific problem or objective they want to tackle within their organization (e.g. marketing, strategic planning, funding issues, etc.). In the afternoon, a group of advisors meet these local NGOs and startups. The advisors, divided in groups mixing backgrounds and areas of expertise, meet the local NGOs and brainstorm solutions to their problems.
Caela Tanjangco is a Director for Asia at Endeavor Catalyst. She started with Medical School but later pursued a business career, including founding a healthcare startup. She is also Co-Chair of the Impact Council at the Global Shapers Community and holds a Master's Degree in International Management and a BS in Psychology. "We have companies that have raised Series B, had the first female founder raise the highest amount of Series A funding, and have CBCs, which is the biggest ever in the Philippines. I'm cautiously optimistic about the country in terms of the next stage of funding because of what's happening in the market. We have a lot of good founders and strong fundamentals, but because of what's happening in the public and private markets, we're affected in terms of the succeeding funding in Series C, pre-IPO, and Series B. We lack investors in that area for all the companies that have just raised their Series B."- Caela Tanjangco "There are disadvantages to being founders who don't speak English or who might have problems communicating about their startup when pitching to global funds. I won't say that's a shortfall, but it's an issue that entrepreneurs need support with. It's a gap that we need to address so that they're better acknowledged and understood by global investors." - Caela Tanjangco Read the transcript here at: www.bravesea.com/blog/caela-tanjangco Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/sg/podcast/brave-southeast-asia-tech-singapore-indonesia-vietnam/id1506890464 Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jeremyau?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeremyauz/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/jeremyau Visit our community at: www.bravesea.com

The pandemic has not only caused health concerns but also an unprecedented surge in unemployment. With the fast-growing economies and societies driven by technology, the alarming rate of underemployment and shortage of skills has immensely affected the balance of demands in work and talent. On the other hand, the pandemic has also paved the introduction of a hybrid setup utilizing technology as the main driver of both education and employment systems. In this episode, Mangtas Nation has an in-depth discussion on modern education and the skills needed for the future of work with David Timis, the Global Communications Manager at Generation. Generation is a non-profit organization with a primary focus on technology-driven education and training programs to be able to prepare and support vulnerable sectors and passionate individuals for the future of work. This includes upskilling and reskilling to meet the high demands of work that has been unprecedentedly disrupted by the global pandemic. David is also an active member of the Global Shapers Community at Brussels Hub which forwards sustainable and global change.

Jan Peloza je inženir računalništva in informatike, ima magisterij iz strateškega tržnega komuniciranja s poudarkom na socialnem marketingu ter je zaključil MBA na ljubljanski Ekonomski fakulteti. Skozi svojo kariero je gradil uspešne zgodbe v nevladnem sektorju in socialni ekonomiji, zadnja leta se pa osredotoča predvsem na razvoj sektorja podjetij z družbenim in okolijskim učinkom. Jan je dobitnik številnih državnih in tujih nagrad, med drugim s področja zdravja, izobraževanja in trajnostnega razvoja, je One Young World ambasador in ustanovni kurator Global Shapers Community-ja v Kopru, ki deluje pod okriljem Svetovnega gospodarskega foruma. V prostem času igra košarko, sicer pa trenutno vodi Slovensko agencijo za mlade ter mednarodni organizaciji Zvezo evropskih mladinskih kartic in Mednarodno zvezo za zdravje mladih (International Youth Health Organization). Jan je bil tudi dolgo časa zaposlen pri Svetovni Zdravstveni Organizaciji (WHO). Trenutno je direktor SLOAMa – Slovenske agencije za mlade, kjer je vključenih 130.000 maldih, 100+ partnerjev in več kot 7 mio popustov po Evropi. Sedaj pa prevzema vodenje do zdaj zanj največjega projekt, pospeševalnika za podjetja z družbenim in okolijskim učinkom, Impact Hub Ljubljana, ki odpira svoje prostore na bivšem trgovalnem prostoru ljubljanske Borze. Naj quote: Impact first, profit second Naj knjiga: Simon Sinek - Infinite Game Naj serija: Karkoli triler ali strategy-wise - mogoče recently najbolj Casa de Papel, pred tem pa House of Cards, ampak tudi kaj bolj sci-fi kot je lost in sitcom kot je the Office, čeprav slednjemu v današnjem času ne bi dovolili posnet prvih epizod :) Hobiji: Košarka, meditacija, vsekakor potovanja Najljubša hrana: Kruhovi cmoki s slivami brez sliv ;) Samo okus sliv torej, slive sem vedno odmaknil. Najljubši podjetnik: Težko je imeti vzornika v tem primeru. Se pa dostikrat pošalim, da je dober socialni ali impact podjetnik neka mešanica med Elonom Muskom in Mati Terezo ;) Naj app: Najbolj pogosto osebno uporabljen sigurno kak trgovalni app, ampak poslovno pa EYCA Slovenija (Evropska mladinska kartica), ker ga pač razvijamo mi ;) Tvoji trije nauki za naše poslušalce · V življenju nisem šel k partnerju s finančno ponudbo brez, da bi imel win-win zgodbo - zelo nerad grem torej v partnerstva, kjer samo mi profitiramo, zato sem organsko proti donacijam, ki so enostranske. Razen seveda, če to ne gre v dobrodelne namene - s tem ne gradiš trajnostnega biznisa in platforme za dejanski uspeh. · V tridesetih letih (do 2050) tisti podjetnik, ki ne bo imel implicitno vkomponirane družbene in okoljske odgovornosti, mogoče celo net positive impacta na okolje in družbo, bo verjetno obubožal oz.ne bo uspel. Če seveda ostanemo v kapitalizmu, kot ga poznamo, ker je to edina logična rešitev, če želimo obdržati business as usual · Ne zamenjujte samozavest in odprtost za uspeh in odličnost vodenja. Sem sam že parkrat pristal na tankem ledu. Torej hire for attitude, train for skills.

As thousands of people ascended into Glasgow to attend COP26, young people fought to have their voices heard. But beyond COP how do we ensure youth have a seat at the climate table not just now but always? For the month of November, #NextPagePod has gone green in support of COP26. So far we've featured conversations exploring climate issues, youth activism, the science behind the policy and of course talked about what role multilateralism plays in the future of our planet. In this final episode, we are going back to what inspired this series in the first place, COP26, as we talk to one of the young Australian delegates on the final day of the conference. In this episode, we talk to Holly Crockford to hear what she has learned on the ground from a youth perspective but also what she hopes to see after the conference ends. Holly is a young Australian climate leader who is the co-founder of Climate Force and Foundations for Tomorrow an organization powered by the Global Shapers Community, she is also involved with AYFICE (Australian Youth For International Climate Engagement) and has a background in pro-bono law and community volunteering. In this conversation we explore youth accessibility to the conference, what actions Holly wants to see beyond COP and the type of climate leadership she'd like to see.

Today's guest is Henrietta Moon, Co-Founder and CEO of Carbo Culture.Carbo Culture makes functional biocarbons and Biographite from waste to keep CO2 out of the atmosphere. They're working with green and blue infrastructure and carbon-negative materials developers to start a new era of Carbon Culturing. The startup describes its process as an "ultra-rapid conversion" where woody residues are turned into functional biocarbons at an extremely high temperature. The process then "locks" the carbon into a sort of charcoal that won't degrade for 1,000 years. Before Co-Founding Carbo Culture, Henriette was in the Spring 2019 StartX Cohort, Stanford's prestigious founder community and supported by serial entrepreneurs. She also was a board member at Yleiselektroniikka (YE International) and a Helsinki Hub member in the Global Shapers Community, a World Economic Forum initiative.In this episode, Henrietta and I deep dive into biochar, its impacts on climate, and why the climate community has been apprehensive about embracing it. Henrietta explains what motivated her to co-found Carbo Culture, the startup's mission, and why decarbonization is essential to addressing climate change. It was great to understand more about Carbo Culture's solution, and Henrietta is a fantastic guest.Enjoy the show!You can find me on twitter @jjacobs22 or @mcjpod and email at info@myclimatejourney.co, where I encourage you to share your feedback on episodes and suggestions for future topics or guests.Episode recorded September 29th, 2021To learn more about Carbo Culture, visit: https://www.carboculture.com/To learn more about this episode, visit: https://myclimatejourney.co/ctss-episodes/carbo-culture

Andreas Tschas ist ein Pionier der österreichischen Start-Up-Szene. Wie kaum ein anderer ist er mit ihr verbunden. Kaum überraschend ist es daher wohl, dass er bereits während seines Studiums mit „icons“, eine studentische Unternehmensberatung, ein Unternehmen mitgegründet und aufgebaut hat. Daneben engagierte er sich auch im Aufbau von Unternehmensnetzwerken, insbesondere für Startups, wie zum Beispiel mit „STARTeurope“, ein europäisches Startup-Netzwerk, „Pioneers.io“, ein mittlerweile international tätiger Startup-Inkubator, oder auch der „Global Shapers Community“ des Weltwirtschaftsforums. Abseits seiner privatwirtschaftlichen Aktivitäten hat es ihn auch für rund ein Jahr von 2018 bis 2019 in den öffentlichen Dienst verschlagen, als Leiter der Digitalisierungsagentur des Bundes. Ihn treibt an, zukünftigen Generationen eine bessere Welt zu hinterlassen. Ganz seiner Pioniermentalität treu will er daher Österreich zu einem globalen Climate-Tech-Hub machen. Mit seinem jüngsten Unternehmen „Glacier“ will er Unternehmen dabei unterstützen, kleine wie auch große Schritte in Richtung weniger CO2-Ausstoß zu gehen. Warum Verantwortung dabei eine große Rolle für ihn spielt, erzählt er im Café Julius mit Martha Schultz.

In this episode of SolveCast, we speak David Timis, Author, Keynote Speaker, and Outgoing Curator at Brussels Global Shapers Hub. The Global Shapers Community is a collective of young people aimed at finding solutions and creating policies to change the world for the better.There’s no mistaking that stereotypical office life has been turned on its head in these past months. Due to both the pandemic and tech developments, work and education are now "gravitating around technology" more than ever.David offers his analysis of how the coronavirus has accelerated work life into an entirely new landscape - one that might be here to stay even after the virus is long gone. Whether the greatest changes look like “hybrid-mode” office and home schedules, increased “digital skilling initiatives,” or simply heightened attention to employee mental health, David believes that they reveal something authentic about modern life.

Studies show that 98% of domestic violence victims also experience financial abuse and stay in abusive relationships due to financial insecurity. Today’s guest is Joy McBrien and her ethical jewelry brand Fair Anita creates financial opportunities for women around the world. Their artisans partners carefully design and create every product by hand, and Fair Anita also gives them the resources for economic self-sufficiency. Along with that, Fair Anita also maintains strong ethical standards in the production chain, working conditions, living wages, and full transparency of business practices. Join me as I speak with Joy about the journey of Fair Anita, and the life-changing mission to help women feel safe, valued, and respected, no matter where they live. 3:58 - The Joy 101 Joy started Fair Anita when she was just 24-years-old to help combat the issues with sexual violence that she’d experienced in her own life. After a lot of research, it became clear to her that financial insecurity is the main reason women stay in abusive partnerships. She also knew early on that she wanted her organization to help tackle the problems that can be found in consumerism and the exploitation of women in consumer supply chains. Starting her first jewelry company at age 15 gave Joy a knowledge of jewelry design that helped her connect to artisans and the ways they incorporate their own culture into designs. While living in Peru, Joy witnessed horrible factory conditions and became passionate about knowing where her purchases came from and the working conditions of the people making those products. Joy knew there were already many big names in the fair trade world but realized an opportunity to make fair trade products that were more personalized, accessible, and affordable. 8:55 - Developing Fair Anita As she traveled the world, Joy built a network of women doing incredible work and reached back out to them when she started Fair Anita. They worked together to incorporate artisan’s traditional skills into updated designs for US markets. Joy was very intentional to make sure Fair Anita offered fair trade goods with accessible price points. She believes ethical fashion is only truly ethical if it is affordable and accessible to more than one subset of people. Fair Anita artisans are still paid two to three times the living wage where they’re located. Volume of sales rather than higher-priced items makes this possible. The demand is being driven by Millennials and recent a Forbes article shows that 73% of Millennials are likely to purchase a mission-based product if they’re given a comparable alternative in price and design. Brands will have to adapt to this demand and start focusing more of their supply chains on ethical practices. This helps create a fair trade market that is accessible to average consumers as well. Smaller brands also get a chance to shine and push the market to meet higher fair trade standards. 17:20 - Sustainable Options and Ethical Storytelling Moving forward, Fair Anita wants to continue helping larger organizations improve by creating sustainable options for their customers. Joy will also be turning her focus to international women’s rights and bringing suppliers back into direct conversations about supply chains. One of the biggest parts of Fair Anita’s mission is making sure artisans give consent for their stories to be shared. Artisans should be the ones deciding whether or not to share about their lives, which also means managing consumer’s expectations to hear them. When people do decide to share their story, it’s important to create safe spaces where they can share rather than have other people repeating their stories. 32:37 - Getting To Know Our Guest Find out who Joy would most like to sit next to on a 10-hour flight, her guilty pleasure, what books she’s reading, and of course, what it means to run a business with purpose. ABOUT JOY Joy McBrien is a global learner who is passionate about creating opportunities for women and girls. She is the Founder and CEO of Fair Anita, a social enterprise that strives to build a more inclusive economy for women by providing economic opportunity and dignified jobs through beautiful fair trade jewelry and accessories. She has worked with thousands of women around the world, using her empathetic nature to understand circumstances and develop creative solutions, including having built a battered women’s shelter in Peru and working at a girl-focused middle school in St. Paul. Joy has been recognized for her leadership in this space, giving a TEDx talk and receiving awards including: Top Ten Outstanding Young Minnesotans 2015, Open Hands Initiative Fellow 2016, Minnesota Business Magazine’s 35 Entrepreneurs Under 35, CauseArtist's 35 Entrepreneurs to Watch, and the Real Power 50 Award. Joy is a member of the Global Shapers Community, and has spoken on women's issues at various events with the World Economic Forum, including the Annual Meeting of New Champions (aka Summer Davos) and the Sustainable Development Impact Summit. Beyond acting on her passions for women's rights and ethical supply chains, Joy spends much of her time traveling, working with young people, and performing as a professional dancer.

Mighty Axe Hops is using experimentation to create an ecosystem within an ecosystem. Eric Sannerud is an experimenter. He tries small experiments, gathers feedback and then adjusts. For example, in 2013, he was graduating from the University of Minnesota. At the same time, he had several irons in the fire. He was part of a team that launched Twin Fin, an innovative urban farm start-up, growing fish and greens in a city warehouse. At the same time, he was involved with the Famers’ Legal Action Group (FLAG). He was also involved with Urban Oasis, the winner of a $1 million Forever Saint Paul Competition to create a sustainable food center on the East Side of Saint Paul. And, he cofounded the Sandbox Center for Regenerative Entrepreneurship. And, in his spare time, he managed to co-found Mighty Axe Hops, building and leading a new industry in Minnesota. Eric explains, “There’s a sliver in your life where your commitments and your personal life might not be as stringent as they tend to grow to be, and I wanted to make full use of that time.” He talks about the importance of an experimental mindset. “They were all really low-risk. As they begin to grow, you try to commit more resources to the ones that look like they will bring better results.” Eventually, Eric began to focus his efforts. “That time of being involved in many things, I’m really shrinking it down to just being involved in the things I want to be involved with.” Today, he spends his time growing Mighty Axe Hops. He and his co-founder Ben Boo have grown their operations from 20 plants to a new 80-acre farm. Mighty Axe Hops is creating a hops-growing ecosystem in Minnesota. Where no hops industry existed before, a cottage industry of inputs, processors, marketers, farm implements is beginning to grow. The hops industry is an ecosystem within an ecosystem. The rise of craft beer and microbreweries gives rise to the need for local hops with unique flavor profiles. Not only is Mighty Axe Hops creating an ecosystem, they are growing within the fertile ground of the Minnesota social good ecosystem. They started as a student-led start-up, launched during the Acara program at the University of Minnesota. Eric is also a member of the local Global Shapers Community and is an active member of the Impact Hub, Minneapolis-St. Paul. Social Entrepreneurship Quotes from Eric Sannerud “I was looking for something that would or could become a job.” “I was involved in a number of startups through late college and just after college.” “It boils down to, I want to make a difference with my life.” “At that phase of my life, I was just saying yes.” “I know what I want to do for the next five years.” “That was the little money we needed to put more proof behind our concept.” “Our main goal is to create a vibrant Minnesota hops industry.” “It never felt sharky.” “I think the reason I like entrepreneurship is because of how challenging it is.” “We’re directly measuring water quality and soil health.” “The thing that helped me the most was learning to just do it.” “Start something and try something, but in a smart way.” “I always approach it like a scientific hypothesis.” “Test as many of your assumptions in your business plan as possible, with the least amount of risk.” Social Entrepreneurship Resources: Mighty Axe Hops: http://www.mightyaxehops.com Mighty Axe Hops on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MightyAxeHops Mighty Axe Hops on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MightyAxeHops Mighty Axe Hops on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mightyaxehops
