BRAIN Biotech AG Deep Dive: Key TakeawaysIn this exclusive deep dive, Michael Schneiders, CFO of Brain Biotech AG, takes on the seven most frequently asked questions from institutional investors — offering clarity, conviction, and a forward-looking view on everything from AI-driven enzyme discovery to U.S. expansion, M&A, and the commercial pipeline within the BioIncubator portfolio.Let's unpack the key investor topics that matter most to understanding Brain Biotech's current strategy and its long-term value-creation potential.1. What are Enzymes, and Why Are They So Attractive?Enzymes are natural proteins that catalyze biochemical reactions, and Brain Biotech focuses on microbial enzymes with industrial and human applications. Why does this matter to investors? Because enzymes offer low-energy, biodegradable, and sustainable alternatives to chemical synthesis — making them key tools in the green industrial transformation.The global enzyme market stands at €6 billion, growing at mid-single-digit rates with strong margins. Consumers prefer natural enzyme-based solutions, especially in food, nutrition, and life sciences. Brain, with its unique position and strategic focus, is well-positioned to lead this trend.2. What Sets Brain Biotech Apart from Other Industrial Biotech Firms?Michael Schneiders emphasizes Brain's end-to-end platform—from discovery and AI-assisted enzyme design, to development, fermentation, and production. Few players can offer the full value chain. This integrated model serves three verticals:ProductsProprietary enzymes for food & life science.CDMOContract manufacturing for biopharma clients.CROCustom research in enzyme innovation.This makes Brain not just a supplier, but a strategic co-developer with its clients — increasing stickiness, value creation, and margin expansion.3. How Is AI Revolutionizing Enzyme Discovery at Brain?Brain's AI and machine learning platforms are now central to its enzyme innovation engine. Their proprietary platform, “MetXtra,” enables the discovery and synthetic design of novel enzymes, with 99% of the sequences unique to public databases.With bioinformatics, machine learning, and CRISPR gene editing, Brain is accelerating timelines from idea to prototype, cutting costs, and driving customer success. Their goal: design enzymes that don't yet exist in nature—customized for client needs.This digital-first approach is transforming Brain into a tech-enabled biotech innovator—and investors are taking notice.4. What Are Brain's Medium-Term Growth Targets, and What Role Does M&A Play?Brain's mid-term goal is to double enzyme segment sales through high-single-digit to low-double-digit organic growth. The addressable market for their core activities is approximately €2 billion — and with only €50 million in sales today, there's massive upside.Brain also aims to lift its adjusted EBITDA margin from 10% to 15%, unlocking operational leverage as scale increases.While organic growth is the priority, Brain remains opportunistic on M&A—with a successful track record including Biocatalysts, RareTech, and AnalytiCon Discovery. One more medium-sized acquisition (à la Biocatalysts) is planned within the next 5 years. ..▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/nvestor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

In this Kitchen Side episode of The Long Game Podcast, the Omniscient Digital team explores the tension between moving fast and making smart decisions. Speed is often praised in startups and growth environments, but it can lead to thrashing, burnout, and wasted effort when misapplied. Through reflections on agency work, in-house roles, and working with clients, they examine how to balance urgency with focus, and how strategic patience—paired with tactical speed—can create real momentum. They also share real-world SEO and AI examples of teams pivoting too fast, chasing trends, and missing out on compounding gains due to lack of prioritization, alignment, or decisiveness.Key TakeawaysSpeed ≠ Thrashing: Speed is powerful—but not when it means jumping between tactics without a long-term direction.Experimentation Requires Discipline: The best teams move quickly within a defined portfolio of experiments, not across constant strategic shifts.AI and SEO Demand New Timelines: Understanding how long it takes to see results from AI Overviews or SEO changes is critical for smart investment.Strategic Decisions Need Time: Channel or strategy-level shifts should have space to breathe—tactical pivots can happen faster.Avoid Becoming the Bottleneck: Leadership speed often comes down to fast approvals, trust, and timely delegation.Portfolio Thinking Beats All-In Bets: High-performing orgs allocate some resources to R&D and experimentation while maintaining core execution.Alignment Enables Flow: Teams that communicate clearly and early across departments unlock faster execution and reduce friction.Show LinksConnect with David Khim on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Alex Birkett on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Allie Decker on LinkedIn and TwitterConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterWhat is Kitchen Side?One big benefit of running an agency or working at one is you get to see the “kitchen side” of many different businesses; their revenue, their operations, their automations, and their culture.You understand how things look from the inside and how that differs from the outside.You understand how the sausage is made. As an agency ourselves, we're working both on growing our clients' businesses as well as our own.

Disciplined, purpose-driven innovation, anchored in governance, data, and the human experience, beats shiny-object hype.In this mega-episode, Lisa Fry, Chief Strategy & Innovation Officer at SCP Health, discusses “purposeful innovation” that reduces clinician burden and elevates patient experience: ED-volume prediction to align coverage, early pilots of ambient scribing, and patient-preferred models like hospital-at-home. She explains the guardrails, an enterprise architecture review board, commitments to core platforms, and stage-gated pilots with predefined success metrics, to avoid the “tyranny of the urgent” and scale only what works. Nancye Feistritzer, DNP, RN—VP, Center for Care Delivery & Innovation at Emory Healthcare, talks about how bold initiatives, including the Apple hospital work and implementing Epic on Apple devices, succeed only when they explicitly align with an organization's strategy, mission, and values. Nick Yaitsky, Board Member for TAG Digital Health, urges outcome-first AI roadmaps: accept that healthcare data is imperfect, mitigate bias by fine-tuning models to local populations and even individual patients, and build trust in the same way we came to trust GPS, through consistent, measurable results and governance. Olga Ryzhikova, Founding Partner at Kepler Team, tackles adoption by starting integration where clinicians work (SMART on FHIR/SSO), designing modern user experiences, and favoring ambient, low-click workflows so tools remain in use. Ron Strachan, Global Healthcare CIO Advisor, addresses rural access, noting that resilient, low-bandwidth virtual care and platform economies can “meet patients where they are.” His own brain-tumor journey underscores how imaging precision and reliable infrastructure can change outcomes. Finally, Wes Whitaker, AVP of Growth Strategy & Data Analytics, shows population health at scale: unifying EHR, eligibility, claims, and ADT into a modern cloud/Databricks stack, then applying predictive models to anticipate ER visits, target outreach, drive attribution, and prove ROI, while tightening security with role-based access. Together, their message is clear: govern hard, integrate early, pilot fast, measure relentlessly, and scale empathetically. Tune in and learn how to innovate with rigor, scale with empathy, and deliver measurable value!ResourcesConnect with Lisa Fry on LinkedIn here.Follow SCP Health on LinkedIn here and visit their website here.Follow and connect with Nancye Feistritzer on LinkedIn.Learn more about Emory Healthcare on LinkedIn and their website.Connect with and follow Nick Yaitsky on LinkedIn.Discover more about the TAG Digital Health Society on LinkedIn and explore their website.Follow and connect with Olga Ryzhikova on LinkedIn.Learn more about the Kepler Team on their LinkedIn and explore their website.Connect with Ron Strachan on LinkedIn here.Explore Zoom's website and learn more about them on their LinkedIn.Follow and connect with Wes Whitaker on LinkedIn.Discover more about Premise Health on their LinkedIn and visit their website.

These two investment styles are often positioned as opposites, but this framing may obscure the complex interplay between them. Instead, Ayah Habboub, and Index Researcher in L&G's Index Solutions team, argues that designing growth strategies in a way that is agnostic to value could allow investors to capture the market returns unique to each factor. This podcast was recorded on 17 October 2025 and is hosted by Harry Brooks, European Content Manager. For professional investors only. Capital at risk.

(TSXV: SCZ) (OTCQB: SCZMF), joins me to focus on the growth strategy at the development-stage Soracaya Project, as well as the exploration upside and expansion potential around the Bolivar, Porco, and Zimapan Mines. Santacruz Silver operates 5 mines, 3 mills, and an ore feed-sourcing and metals trading business in Bolivia, along with 1 mine in Mexico, as an emerging mid-tier silver and base metals producer.   We kick things off with a review of the news out October 7th which announced the initiation of development activities and the pursuit of full production permitting at their wholly-owned Soracaya Project; located in the Potosí Department, Bolivia. These activities mark a key step toward advancing the Project to a production decision. With the preliminary mine plan in place and the permitting process underway, Soracaya is emerging as a cornerstone growth project for Santacruz Silver in Bolivia.   Soracaya is a high-grade, silver-rich project, featuring mineralization along reactivated faults with replacement and brecciated sulphides, geological characteristics typical of some of the world's most productive silver deposits. Since 1999, more than 29.6 km of drilling across 90+ holes has provided extensive geological data, supporting robust resource modeling and preliminary mine planning.     Additionally, Glencore already put in the decline to access the high-grade veins, so there are some distinct brownfield site infrastructure advantages already in place. An internal study was completed by Glencore with an estimated capex of ~US$40MM for construction of a processing plant and tailings facility. Mine plan today envisions a roughly 12-year mine life with the idea to process about 850-1000 tonnes per day of material through the proposed mill.  Arturo outlined that Soracaya's high-grade resource, strategic location in Potosí, and synergies with existing operations and the teams experience as underground miners give them confidence in its ability to deliver long-term value for shareholders and stakeholders alike.   We also discuss the permitting process, along with the regional Potosí District and mining history, as well as the national election and constructive political developments inside of Bolivia.   Their team is now currently increasing exploration and development work around the Bolivar and Porco Mines in Bolivia, to expand resources and extend mine life. Arturo reiterated their philosophy of constantly exploring at each mine to reinvest in the future growth of the company.   Transitioning over to Mexico, we discussed the higher-grade 960 Level at the Zimapan Mine starting to contribute, and how this well-endowed mineralized zone will continue growing in their Q4 production profile from Zimapan for the balance of this year and for many years into the future.   Arturo also highlighted that with the strength of the balance sheet, with the final 2 payments to Glencore completed in September, and robust incoming revenues at these higher underlying metals prices.   This gives them the optionality to review potential merger or acquisition assets if they are accretive and if their team can add value to those projects.     If you have any follow up questions for Arturo regarding Santacruz Silver, then please email them to me Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Santacruz Silver at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from Santacruz Silver 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, the team breaks down the decision every IT services leader wrestles with: Grow, Buy, or Grow to Sell. You'll hear where firms typically hit operational ceilings, why acquisitions amplify your go-to-market (for better or worse), and what it takes to be truly “ready to sell.” We cover the cash and capability requirements behind each path, common traps (buying to fix sales, serial deals without integration, ignoring working capital), and a simple framework to choose based on time horizon, risk tolerance, and valuation goals. Whether you're building toward a premium exit or debating your next add-on, you'll walk away with practical steps to drive multiple expansion now.Three paths, three realitiesGrow (organic): sharpen ICP, offers, pricing power, utilization, and pipeline discipline.Buy (inorganic): clear thesis, cultural fit, day-0/30/90 integration plan, and post-close GTM.Grow to sell: clean financials/QofE-ready, recurring mix, concentration reduction, leadership bench.Decision drivers: time horizon, leadership bandwidth, cost of capital, integration capacity, risk profile.Valuation levers: recurring revenue %, margin quality, growth durability (Rule of 40/45), customer concentration, integration track record.Common pitfalls: buying to “fix” sales, underestimating change management and working capital, skipping playbooks.Playbooks that travel: discovery→close process, delivery runbook, ICP x offer matrix, integration day-0/30/90, KPI cadence.Outcome framing: optionality done right = two good outcomes (keep growing or transact at a premium).Thinking about building, buying, or prepping for exit?

In this episode, we chat with Geoff McNamara, Co-Founder & Non-Executive Director of Tesoro Gold who are an ASX-listed company, looking to advance its flagship El Zorro Gold Project in Chile, home to the 2-million-ounce Ternera deposit with an exploration target of up to 3 million ounces. They have recently raised $34M so we'll discuss how the funds will be used, support from shareholders and new institutions, highlights from the recent Scoping Study, drilling plans across regional targets, and the pathway to full permitting. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tesoro Gold recently raised $34 million to fund a multi-pronged strategy: completing a pre-feasibility study by mid-2026, advancing regional exploration drilling, and fully permitting the El Zorro project within 18 months. The El Zorro project is a unique, unconstrained 2-million-ounce gold resource in Chile, open in all directions and not at high altitude, with significant potential to grow to the 3-million-ounce target and beyond by linking parallel ridges like Tenore and Drone Hill. The scoping study showed attractive post-tax economics, generating a Net Present Value (NPV) over $650 million and a 50% Internal Rate of Return (IRR) at a $2,750 US dollar gold price, demonstrating the project's high competitiveness with an All-in Sustaining Cost (AISC) of $1,216 US dollars. Chile is a favourable mining jurisdiction, and the company has commenced the permitting process, locking in critical infrastructure including power (20km away) and water (30km away via a desalination plant partner), which are crucial for the project's development BEST MOMENTS "We've made the first intrusive-related gold system discovery in Chile. So it's quite a unique business and story." "The deposit is open in all direction, so a lot of that growth will just be stepping out, north, south, east, and west... it's certainly a pathway to well beyond 3 million ounces in a single deposit." "The all-in sustaining cost is 1,216 US dollars. So it's a highly competitive all-in sustaining cost." "The best leaders and entrepreneurs aren't the ones who know it all, they're the ones humble enough to keep learning through others."

Want to grow faster on LinkedIn without burning out on daily posts? It's all in the comments section.  Daniel and Jay share how a comment-first strategy helped The Marketing Millennials gain thousands of new followers in a single year, outpacing traditional posting.  Daniel reveals how LinkedIn's new comment impressions feature signals a shift: comments can now generate as much or more reach than traditional posts. Comments can act like “mini-posts” inside someone else's thread. Plus, how do you take advantage of adding images to your comments? Comments that have memes or quick insights perform better than text-only. They also give you a chance to test ideas in comments before committing to a full company post. If you're a Marketer looking to up your LinkedIn engagement, this is the episode for you.
