Drake vs. Ja Rule

What keeps pulling us back to the grid when the box office never quite follows? We dive into the whole Tron continuum—from the 1982 cult seed and the overlooked Tron 2.0, through Joseph Kosinski's neon‑sleek Tron Legacy and the bridge‑building of Tron: Uprising, to the new red‑glow reality of Tron Ares. Along the way, we tackle the question fans argue and studios dodge: is Tron actually sci‑fi, or is it fantasy that borrows the language of computers to tell a myth about creators and creation?We revisit the ‘82 release headwinds against E.T., the home video era that gave Tron a second life, and the game that quietly solved problems the films wouldn't touch—interconnected systems, corporate corruption, and viruses as character. Then we contrast Legacy's towering strengths—world‑class design and that Daft Punk score—with its habit of hinting at great themes and jumping to the next set piece. We talk de‑aging that breaks immersion, the ISO genocide that begs for deeper stakes, and why treating the grid as a pocket universe makes the story read cleanly as fantasy.From there, we unpack Ares: fabrication lasers that print bodies, light cycles roaring down city avenues, and a Pinocchio arc that raises huge ethical questions without living in the answers. We debate why bringing grid logic into the real world collapses internal rules, how soundtracks keep rescuing the vibe (hello, Nine Inch Nails), and why executives remain convinced Tron can still become the thing we remember it to be. Our take: the concept is timeless, the execution needs courage—consistent rules, character‑driven choices, and ideas that don't blink when the action starts.If you love the glow but crave the follow‑through, this one's for you. Listen, share with a fellow program, and leave us a review with your verdict: should Tron lean full fantasy or build a harder sci‑fi spine? Subscribe so you don't miss what derezzes next.

W tym odcinku podcastu BSS bez tajemnic ponownie łączę świat biznesu z uczelniami i zabieram Was na Szkołę Główną Gospodarstwa Wiejskiego w Warszawie, gdzie od lat rozwijany jest silny ekosystem studiów podyplomowych odpowiadających realnym potrzebom rynku.Moim gościem jest Karolina Praszek – Gołębiewska, Dyrektor Zarządzająca w Kancelaria Bezpieczeństwa Karolina Praszek i Partnerzy oraz współautorka i spiritus movens studiów podyplomowych „Menedżer Bezpieczeństwa Informacji i Ochrony Danych Osobowych” na SGGW. Rozmawiamy o tym, dlaczego ochrona danych osobowych, compliance i szeroko rozumiane bezpieczeństwo informacji to dziś jeden z kluczowych filarów każdej firmy, a nie „papierologia” czy przykry obowiązek narzucony przez RODO.Karolina pokazuje bardzo praktycznie, że biznes zarabia na leadach, a lead to konkretna dana osobowa, więc dobrze ułożony system bezpieczeństwa i procedur realnie przekłada się na stabilność przychodów, ciągłość działania i zaufanie klientów – szczególnie w czasach ransomware, phishingu i coraz bardziej wyrafinowanych cyberataków.Wchodzimy też głębiej w temat odpowiedzialności zarządów – w tym wchodzącej dyrektywy NIS2 – oraz kultury organizacyjnej, w której „ryba psuje się od głowy”, jeśli liderzy nie traktują bezpieczeństwa poważnie.W drugiej części odcinka rozbieramy na czynniki pierwsze same studia podyplomowe: 176 godzin intensywnej, praktycznej nauki, silne nastawienie na warsztaty, case studies, audyty oraz możliwość odbycia 40‑godzinnego kursu audytora wiodącego ISO 27001, zakończonego zewnętrznym egzaminem. Karolina podkreśla, że program budowany jest przez praktyków od lat działających w obszarze RODO, bezpieczeństwa informacji, norm ISO i compliance, a celem jest wypuszczanie na rynek nie „inspektorów po weekendowym kursie”, lecz specjalistów z realnymi kompetencjami do pracy w działach bezpieczeństwa i outsourcingowych zespołach IOD.  Kluczowe punkty rozmowy:Bezpieczeństwo informacji i ochrona danych osobowych są kluczowe dla stabilności i sukcesu biznesu, a dobrze zorganizowany system ochrony danych zwiększa zaufanie i lojalność klientów.Studia podyplomowe na SGGW, takie jak Menedżer Bezpieczeństwa Informacji i Ochrony Danych Osobowych, oferują nie tylko teoretyczną wiedzę, ale również praktyczne umiejętności, w tym kurs na audytora wiodącego.Outsourcing funkcji inspektora ochrony danych zapewnia firmom dostęp do zespołów ekspertów z różnorodnym doświadczeniem, co pozwala na lepsze wdrażanie i utrzymanie systemów bezpieczeństwa informacji.Linki:Karolina Praszek – Gołębiewska na Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/rodo/Studia SGGW „Menedżer Bezpieczeństwa Informacji i Ochrony Danych Osobowych” - https://spbiodo.sggw.edu.pl/Kancelaria Bezpieczeństwa Karolina Praszek i Partnerzy - https://odokancelaria.pl/Porozmawiaj o tym odcinku ze sztuczną inteligencją – https://bbs-bez-tajemnic.onpodcastai.com/episodes/fhj2CcmKKN0/chat  ****************************  Nazywam się Wiktor Doktór i na co dzień prowadzę Klub Pro Progressio https://proprogressio.com/pl/dzialalnosc/klub-pro-progressio/1 – to społeczność wielu firm prywatnych i organizacji sektora publicznego, którym zależy na rozwoju relacji biznesowych w modelu B2B.

Watch the video interview here One of the common pain points when calculating your carbon emissions is simply gathering the data. When collating data from different departments and suppliers, it can be easy to get overwhelmed. The struggle doesn't stop there, as after obtaining all that data you have to find the best way to capture and display it in a way that's useable for the necessary number crunching. Many will turn to an old favourite, spreadsheets, but these can quickly become very unwieldy and impractical if you've got a lot of data to process. Thankfully, there's a lot of new tech and tools available to help make this task both approachable and integrated within your business. In this episode, Mel Blackmore is joined by Jessica Matthys, Lead Product Manager at Pulsora, to discuss how you can take data complexity from spreadsheets to supply chains, diving into data fragmentation, optimisation and how this can all be balanced for practicality. You'll learn ·      Who is Jessica Matthys? ·      Who are Pulsora? ·      What does data complexity mean in the context of carbon accounting? ·      What are the requirements for CSRD in California? ·      What are the biggest pain points relating to data collection? ·      How can you prevent data fragmentation across your business? ·      What does 'Comprehensive data' mean in the context of sustainability? ·      How can Pulsora help a business take their carbon data from spreadsheets to integrated data systems? ·      How can you make you carbon data more auditable and traceable? ·      How can new carbon focused technology, such as AI tools, help with seeking investment? ·      How can you get information from your supply chain to cover scope 3 emissions?   Resources ·      Pulsora ·      CSRD – California Regulations ·      SB-253 & SB-261 ·      Carbonology   In this episode, we talk about: [00:25] Episode Summary – Mel Blackmore is joined by Jessica Matthys, Lead Product Manager at Pulsora, to explore how you can take data complexity from spreadsheets to supply chains, diving into data fragmentation, optimisation and how this can all be balanced for practicality. [01:40] Who is Jessica Matthys: Is the Lead Product Manager for carbon solutions at Pulsora. She's been with Pulsora for a year and a half, but has worked within the ESG / carbon / sustainability space for over 8 years in total. Something that people might not know about Jessica is that her passion for sustainability started much earlier than her working career, starting in high school where she opted to live on a farm for one semester. That unique experience of working closely with nature and animals set her on the path that she still walks today. [02:30] Who are Pulsora? Pulsora is an end to end sustainability management AI powered platform. They can manage anything from data collection and carbon accounting all the way towards ESG reporting and audit support. The focus of their platform is auditability and transparency . [04:40] What does data complexity mean in the context of carbon accounting? Jessica breaks this down into three main elements: Disparate nature of data – When compiling data for greenhouse gas accounting, you have to take a lot into consideration including your own production and consumption in addition to all the upstream and downstream relationships across your value chain. The data for all of this will be scattered and will need to be brought together in order to get a full comprehensive view of your emissions data. Missing primary data – Some data may be very difficult to obtain, say from a supplier in a remote region, so in those cases you may need to make estimations to fill those gaps. However, you need to establish a proven and trusted methodology that can be repeated for such instances. Auditability and transparency – Your data needs to be robust enough to hold up to scrutiny in an audit. New and upcoming regulatory requirements will have stricter rules around how you collect and report your emissions. We can see this in regulations such as SB 253 and 261 within CSRD that will affect businesses in California. There's a new focus on mandatory reporting as opposed to voluntary, so you will need to ensure your data is in a good place to be audited when this starts to effect other organisations globally. [07:30] What are the requirements for CSRD in California? There are two main climate bills coming into effect in California in 2026, these are SB-253 and SB-261, which are supported by CARB (California Air Resources Board). These two regulations affect businesses who are either doing business in, have employees located in, or selling products over a certain revenue threshold in California. Affected businesses will be required to report on their scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions. There isn't anything new in these regulations that we haven't already seen in other European focused requirements, aside from the mandatory element. The first deadline for this reporting is expected to be due by June 2026, and this first year they will only be expecting reports for your scope 1 and 2 data. SB-261 has a slightly different focus, with it requiring climate risk reporting. This is similar to existing frameworks like ISSB or TCFD. This report can be published publicly and you just need to submit a link to that report to the appropriate bodies in California. The deadline for this one is fast approaching, with it being set at 1st January 2026. [11:10] What are the biggest pain points relating to data collection?: Jessica shares an example of a company that came to Pulsora with a spreadsheet that they dubbed 'the monster spreadsheet' that contained 100+ tabs with hundreds of people adding to it. It got to the point where it was always crashing and simply became a burden to use. It's a fairly common story, though maybe not to this extreme, that companies find they quickly outgrow spreadsheets as a form of manual data collection. There is also the question of the quality of data provided, how can they trust the insights gained from the data provided from so many different sources? At Pulsora, they've made use of AI within their platform that can help bring all that data together and analyse it to identify any anomalies and duplicated data. They've also focused on creating collaborative workflows, so all communications regarding collection of emissions data can be kept under one roof, meaning you have a fully traceable and auditable trail for all data collected. [15:10] How can you prevent data fragmentation across your business? Pulsora have made use of AI to prevent data fragmentation, they have achieved this with agentic AI, which is AI that can coordinate between different paths and can make decisions without a human in the loop. A use case for this might be where you have a company with thousands of suppliers, but would only be able to get emissions data from the handful of long-term suppliers that are happy to work with them. AI can assist with the remaining suppliers by looking for any published information those suppliers have, and take that emissions and financial data to create an intensity factor for the supplier. This can then make an informed estimate for how many emissions equate from so much spend with that supplier. The AI will of course keep a trail for all it's sourced data so a human can review this and ensure the information is correct if needed. [18:45] What does 'Comprehensive data' mean in the context of sustainability? When gathering emissions data, a business has to consider what part of its operations creates the most emissions. This will differ depending on the sector and nature of your business. Whether you're a B2B business or a manufacturer, you need to confirm where your largest emissions source. It's imperative that your emissions inventory is reflective of your business and its impact.  There will also be gaps in the data you want / need to collect. You still need to ensure that data in any reporting provided is reflective of your operations, you can't just leave that data out, especially as there are now tools to help fill those gaps. AI for example can identify representative data to help bridge those gaps to provide a comprehensive inventory. [22:35] How can Pulsora help a business take their carbon data from spreadsheets to integrated data systems?: Jessica uses a company, Franklin Templeton, to explain the process. In this case, the company is a global asset manager and they used Workday for a lot of their HR, procurement and financial data. When it came to collating emissions data, they didn't realise that 95% of the information needed was already stored in Workday. For other companies that are quire energy intensive, there's a high chance that you already have a comprehensive system with most of the data required. In Franklin Templeton's case, they helped them to transfer this over into the Pulsora system with an existing out-of-the-box migration tool for Workday. For the HR data Pulsora were able to assist with ESG reporting. The Pulsora system was able to apply emissions factors to the transferred data automatically, which helped to create a comprehensive view of their scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions. Jessica give another example for a glass manufacturing company called Seagen who are based in Turkey. While they didn't have the monster spreadsheet situation, they had a fairly good system in place but it wasn't quite reaching the mark in terms of being able to report against multiple different carbon frameworks. Pulsora's system help to quantify their data, quite a task in of itself due to how high their emissions were, and it also helped to apply all this gathered data to those carbon frameworks. They also utilised Pulsora to help gather various metrics from 7 business units across 100 sites, that aided in audit preparation and insurance. [29:00] How can you make you carbon data more auditable and traceable?:  If you're just starting out on your emissions journey, we highly recommend looking to the GHG protocol for guidance on the scope 1,2 and 3 definitions and what's required of each for reporting. The first step you should take is to determine what scopes and categories are relevant to your business according to the GHG protocol. There are a few different approaches including a percentage based approach or ones that include more detailed data analysis. The second step is emission factors, which is essentially a process of taking your business activities and translating that into emissions. You need to establish a consistent approach to documenting these emission factors, and those emissions factors will be determined by your region. UK for example use DEFRA factors, the US have EPA and Europe uses AIB. There are global data sets available as well, such as IEA. The main key is establishing your methodology early on, and be consistent in your approach while documenting everything in line with that agreed methodology. For a more structured approach to carbon emissions reporting, that includes auditability and traceability at it's core are ISO Standards such as ISO 14064 and ISO 14068. [32:45] How can new carbon focused technology, such as AI tools, help with seeking investment? Jessica shares a sneak peak into a new feature that Pulsora have recently released to help with seeking investment, which is invoice reading. This feature allows users to upload invoices to the Pulsora system, and it will extract the required data without the need for manual input. This aids in the auditability and traceability within the system as this data is displayed right alongside the evidence it was extracted from. The system can also compare file content to spot and flag up any anomalies, so you can ensure your data is as accurate as possible before going through a formal audit process with a third-party such as Carbonology. That stamp of approval from a successful third-party audit can then be used for raising capital and sharing with stakeholders. [35:55] How can you get information from your supply chain to cover scope 3 emissions?:  Jessica provides some helpful tips for scope 3 emissions, including:- Don't worry about getting primary information from all of your suppliers. You only need enough data to identify your decarbonization plans and strategy to share with stakeholders with a high degree of confidence. You don't have to get it 100% perfect. Prioritise your suppliers – Consider how much you spend with each supplier, how good are your relationships with them? What impact do your suppliers have on your emissions? You should target the ones that are the most impactful. A lack of response doesn't always mean a lack of data -  Some supplier just won't respond to your data requests, but there are ways you can still get some information, such as 10 based emission factors to get a baseline. With publicly available data about specific sectors and regions, you can get pretty close to the info you need. Get creative – There are other ways to gather data, such as using similar more responsive suppliers as a baseline. You could hold an industry group meeting to talk about improving data transparency and data sharing. This process will be beneficial for all involved by driving both costs and emissions down through a collaborative effort. Create a sphere of influence, drive the change you want to see within your supply chain. Create a Supplier Sustainability Strategy – Again, a consistent and planned approach will encourage engagement. Lastly, don't sweat it if you can't always get the data you want. Making a start is more important than getting it perfect. A lot of frameworks are quite forgiving and allow you time to mature your systems to a level where reporting can be repeated on an annual basis. [40:30] What book would Jessica recommend? A Costa Rica travel book. Jessica simply love the country and it's culture, it's also highly immersive in nature and mostly operates on renewable energy. [40:30] What is Jessica's favourite quote? "If you were born with the weakness to fall, you were born with the strength to rise" Ruby Carr – extract from her poetry book 'Milk and Honey' If you'd like to learn more about Pulsora, check out their website.

We break down the data states that matter most—at rest, in transit, and in use—and show how to pair encryption, access control, and monitoring without drowning in complexity. Along the way, we share a pragmatic blueprint for classification and labeling that teams actually follow, from visual tags and watermarks to tightly governed upgrade and downgrade paths that keep owners accountable.From there, we zoom out to strategy. Risk tolerance drives control selection, so we talk through scoping and tailoring: how to apply NIST and ISO 27001 sensibly, where GDPR and HIPAA come into play, and why focused logging beats “collect everything” fantasies. You'll hear the real differences between DRM and DLP—licensing and usage enforcement versus data path control—and when each tool earns its keep. We also lay out transfer procedures that work in the wild: SFTP with verified keys, email encryption, FIPS‑validated USBs, and restricted cloud shares with time‑boxed access.Cloud isn't a blind spot when a CASB sits between your users and SaaS. We explain how a CASB delivers visibility into shadow IT, enforces policy across apps, integrates with identity for conditional access, and even helps you rein in egress costs. Tie it all together and you get a layered, test‑ready approach that helps you pass the CISSP while protecting what matters most.

Auditoría. Solo decir la palabra ya pone los pelos de punta a más de uno. Pero si le añades “BIM”, la mezcla puede provocar sudores fríos. En este episodio hablamos con Pilar García Martínez, responsable de sistemas de gestión y auditora en Acciona, sobre cómo se gestiona la calidad, qué papel juegan las auditorías y cómo se entrelazan con la metodología BIM sin perder el norte (ni la paciencia). Porque auditar no va solo de revisar papeles, sino de aprender a mirar —y a mejorar— los procesos que sostienen todo lo que construimos. Y sí, también va de entender que sin los frikis del BIM y los guardianes del control de calidad, no hay proyecto que aguante en pie. De las pipetas al hormigón. Pilar García Martínez cuenta cómo una licenciada en Químicas acabó metida hasta las botas en el mundo de la construcción y, con el tiempo, en la gestión de calidad. La historia de Pilar empieza en una obra y termina entre sistemas de gestión, procesos BIM y auditorías internas, demostrando que el camino entre la ciencia y la ingeniería no es tan largo como parece. Lo que empezó como una oportunidad laboral se convirtió en una vocación. Pilar descubre que la calidad en obra no es solo hacer ensayos o revisar probetas, sino garantizar que cada proceso tiene sentido, se cumple y se mejora. Entra en el mundo de las auditorías desde dentro y aprende que, más que juzgar, auditar consiste en escuchar, entender y detectar oportunidades de mejora. Bienvenido al episodio 193 de BIMrras!

The National Standards Authority of Ireland (NSAI) and the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) have signed a new cooperation agreement, marking the start of closer collaboration between the two countries as national standards bodies. The agreement reflects a shared commitment to strengthen the role of standards in supporting innovation, sustainable growth and trusted trade. Standards provide the common rules that allow technologies to scale, supply chains to function smoothly and businesses to access new markets with confidence. This cooperation builds a bridge between Canada and Ireland's standards systems, ensuring that both countries can share expertise, align on priorities and increase their influence internationally. The new partnership between Canada's national standards body and Ireland's national standards body also opens the door for collaboration in key areas such as digital technologies, sustainability and infrastructure resilience. For businesses, it means greater predictability, fewer duplicative steps and stronger confidence that Canadian and Irish standards will support competitiveness at home and abroad. Geraldine Larkin, Chief Executive Officer, National Standards Authority of Ireland said: "At the heart of the global standardisation system is the principle of working together. This agreement between the NSAI and SCC demonstrates the power of global partnership. By working together, we can better align on emerging priorities, strengthen international cooperation and ensure that standards continue to drive innovation and sustainable growth in both Ireland and Canada." Chantal Guay, Chief Executive Officer, Standards Council of Canada added: "Standards create the trust that underpins innovation and trade. By launching this cooperation with NSAI, we are reinforcing Canada and Ireland's leadership in shaping international standards that support growth, open markets and give businesses the confidence to compete globally." Developed through collaboration and consensus-driven approaches, standards embed resilience into products and services, making them safer, more trustworthy, more sustainable and more adaptable. In addition to developing standards at national and regional level, the SCC and NSAI help ensure that technical experts from both Canada and Ireland contribute to developing ISO and IEC International Standards.

Money doesn't just move; it travels across rules, rails, and risk decisions that either create trust or destroy it. In the first of three episodes, we sit down with Sal Karakaplan, Chief Strategy Officer at The Clearing House, to explore how a century-old operator keeps reinventing the core of U.S. payments while shipping modern capabilities at scale. From instant settlement to tokenized data, this is a close look at what it takes to wire an economy for speed without sacrificing safety.We start with the foundation: what TCH runs under the hood - RTP, CHIPS, EPN, and check image exchange - and why reliability and advocacy both matter when you're operating the plumbing. Sal opens the strategy playbook: scan market trends, pick where to build, buy, or partner, and relentlessly prioritize use cases that create measurable customer value. That lens frames a practical take on open banking, where market innovation and regulation advance in parallel. Expect straight talk on security, DDA tokenization, liability clarity, and user consent that's simple for people and robust for compliance.RTP steps into focus with concrete momentum: growing daily volumes, expanding bank enablement, and use cases that resonate; account-to-account funding, B2C disbursements, merchant settlement, insurance payouts, and early wage access. We get real about adoption hurdles in a fragmented banking market and how to make the business case stack up. Beyond speed, the conversation highlights ISO 20022 and data-rich messages that reduce reconciliation friction and sharpen risk controls - critical for CFOs, treasurers, and operations leaders chasing working capital gains.Then we tackle stablecoins with a bottom-up filter: where do they outperform existing rails? Cross-border stands out, from remittances to marketplace payouts, alongside emerging hypotheses in tokenized settlement. Sal lays out the next 3–5 years: push RTP to ubiquity, evaluate DLT and tokenized deposits with discipline, lean into AI for commerce and fraud defense, and elevate security and data as first-class features. It's a pragmatic roadmap for banks, fintechs, and enterprises that want real outcomes, not buzzwords.

An ISO project can typically be completed within 6 – 12 months depending on an organisations size and complexity. Anyone who's been through the process of ISO Implementation knows that there is a lot of work involved in that time span, from coordinating teams, gathering and creating documentation to auditing your processes. Now imagine doing that for 3 ISO Standards simultaneously within 3 months! Which is exactly what today's guest, PUBLIC, have achieved. While it's not a timeframe we recommend, their efforts deserve to be celebrated, and displays what good project management with dedicated individuals can accomplish. In this episode, Ian Battersby is joined by Biba Gonzalez, Senior Associate of Business Operations at PUBLIC, to discuss their 3-month dash to implement ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 20000-1, and explore the challenges and benefits experienced during the process. You'll learn ·      Who is Biba Gonzalez? ·      Who are PUBLIC? ·      What was the main driver behind ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 20000-1 Implementation? ·      What was the biggest gap identified during the Gap Analysis? ·      What did Biba learn from the experience of implementing 3 standards at once? ·      What are the main benefits of ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 20000-1? ·      Biba's top tip   Resources ·      PUBLIC ·      Isologyhub   In this episode, we talk about: [02:05] Episode Summary – Ian is joined by Biba Gonzalez, Senior Associate of  Business Operations at PUBLIC, to learn more about their 3-month whirlwind journey towards ISO 9001, ISO 14001 & ISO 20000-1 implementation. [02:30] Jumping in at the deep end: Biba was tasked with obtaining certification to 3 ISO Standard on returning from maternity leave in July 2025. PUBLIC already held ISO 27001 certification, but were looking to achieve ISO 9001 & ISO 14001 before Christmas of 2025. This was quite the task, especially since Biba had no previous experience with ISO Standards! [04:15] Who is Biba? Biba is the Senior Associate of Business Operations at PUBLIC. She has been the driving force behind PUBLIC's ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 20000-1 implementation. One fact that not many people might know about her is that she has had a private audience with the pope, by complete accident! Simply a case of wrong queue at the right time while on a family vacation. [06:50] Who are PUBLIC? PUBLIC are a digital transformation partner. They work within the private sector to help improve public services, by providing procurement services, online safety programmes and other digitally enabled services. [08:00] What were the main drivers behind achieving ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 20000-1?: PUBLIC work with a number of Government departments, and while bidding for various frameworks they noticed a trend in requests for bidding companies to have ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certification. While not always a strict requirement, it was certainly a desirable trait that was preferred of bidding companies. There's also an increasing number of tenders asking for more environmental requirements, such as carbon emission reporting. What used to be a 'nice to have' is now becoming a requirement, and PUBLIC sought to have these requirements met via the relevant ISO Standards. [09:40] A tight timescale: When Biba had arrived back from maternity leave in July, PUBLIC has already booked in assessment dates with a Certification Body. This left quite a tight timeline of just 3-months to get all 3 Standards implemented to a level that could pass a Stage 1 Assessment. They already had an ISO 27001 system in place, but there was still a lot of work to do. A lot had been discussed about the implementation of additional standards in Biba's absence, but no practical steps had been taken aside from booking the audit dates. She certainly had her work cut out for her as most ISO project typically last between 6 – 12 months! Due to all her hard work, and some assistance from Blackmores, PUBLIC passed their Stage 1 assessment with flying colours and are in a good place to tackle their Stage 2 Assessment in late November 2025. [11:40] What was the biggest gap identified during the Gap Analysis? Thankfully PUBLIC didn't have any huge gaps to fill. Due to their previous work with Government departments, they had a lot of the pieces just not together in a cohesive system. They did identify early on that they wanted a system that worked for them in the long term and were conscious of creating something that fit their way of working. With so many ISO Standards, the upkeep alone would have been overwhelming so they aimed to combine as much as they could into one Business Management System rather than opting to silo each individual Management System. [13:00] What were the benefits of Implementing ISO 9001, ISO 14001 & ISO 20000-1? Biba states that the implementation of these ISO Standards took their business to the next level. Coming from a relatively small start-up, there was some of the micro business mentality that remained despite their growth in recent years. ISO Standards helped to keep everyone adhering to the same requirements. PUBLIC have taken a more hollistic approach to ISO implementation to both make it as simple as possible for everyone to work within, while also driving continual improvement within the business. Having established processes means that everyone is singing from the same song sheet, and provides traceable processes that can be questioned and amended if and when issues occur. [16:15] Additional benefits felt from ISO Implementation: There is greater accountability with the Management system in place. There is also the added benefits of being able to bid and win new business opportunities. [17:25] Biba's top tip for ISO Implementation:  Don't try and implement an ISO Standard (or multiple!) in just 3 months. While PUBLIC managed to do so, it was a lot of hard work squeezed into a very tight timeframe, and Biba wouldn't recommend anyone try to match their level of ambition in this regard. Secondly she adds, make the Management System work for you and your business. ISO Standards by their nature read to be fairly generic, and that's by design, so that you have the freedom to implement them in a way that makes sense to you. There is no point implementing an obtuse system that no one wants to interact with, the key is to embed it into the way you already work, with a view to use it as a tool to drive continual improvement as the system matures. [19:00] Looking to the future:  Biba is optimistic about the business, as they're looking to grow by 20% next year, supported by all the work done to Implement ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 20000-1. While they have had to change aspects of how they worked prior, due to being a small business the nature of approvals and ways of working were on a more individual basis, whereas now there is a team-based approach. It's been a learning curve, but ultimately one that will serve them well as they grow over the next few years. [21:30] Biba's book recommendation:  Invisible Women: the Sunday Times number one bestseller exposing the gender bias women face every day by  Caroline Criado Perez [24:05] Biba's favourite quote:  "Not my circus, not my monkey" an idiom which Biba's sure a lot of Operations Directors can sympathise with If you'd like to learn more about PUBLIC, check out their website.

Win.John breaks down the four-part recruiting pitch that sets expectations and gets to fit fast: who Payroc is as a full-service acquirer, what the core solutions do, how infrastructure and culture support partners as customer number one, and where international expansion opens future lanes. Andie takes us into the field results: near sellouts of their terminal twice in a year, a step-change in win rates, and tangible gains when SMBs finally get pay by text, lightweight invoicing, and a polished countertop experience without enterprise POS cost or complexity. Service verticals like auto repair and landscaping benefit from simple scheduling, mobile-friendly payments, and fewer keyed transactions -practical improvements that agents can demo and merchants adopt quickly.We also walk through a vertical ISO case study that shifted to sending 95 percent of its business to Payroc after repeatable onboarding, underwriting alignment, and responsive support outperformed legacy processors. Throughout the conversation, feedback loops drive the roadmap: trade show questions, CRM win-loss data, and partner demos surfaced the need for features like scheduling, which moved from request to release. The core message is clear; focus doesn't mean fixed. The stack evolves, but the promise stays consistent: fewer products, better execution, stronger support, and a go-to-market that respects the time of the people closest to the merchant.

Global food safety relies on clear, practical standards. The ISO 22002 series - aka “The Magnificent Seven” – helps organizations manage contamination, fraud, and hygiene risks, ensuring consistent quality across food, feed, and packaging sectors.In this episode, Matthew speaks to Richard Leathers, Amanda McCarthy, and Angela Cunningham, three of the standards-makers behind the series. They discuss how the seven standards, including updates and new parts for retail, wholesale, and the universal supply-chain foundation, help organizations put ISO 22000 Prerequisite Programmes (PRPs) into practice efficiently and consistently.Since it's The Standards Show, Richard, Amanda, and Angela also reflect on their own standards journeys - what motivated them to get involved, and what continues to inspire their involvement today.Find out more about the issues raised in this episode.ISO 22002 seriesISO 22000 – food safety management systems BSI Standards Committee AW/90 – Quality systems for the food industryGet involved with standardsGet in touch with The Standards Showeducation@bsigroup.comsend a voice messageFind and follow on social mediaX @StandardsShowInstagram @thestandardsshowLinkedIn | The Standards Show

Incoming and outgoing payments are central to a corporate treasurer's responsibilities because they directly impact liquidity, risk management, and operational efficiency. Today, treasurers face a wave of changes, from instant payments and ISO 20022 to digital currencies and e-invoicing, each of which has implications beyond simple regulatory tick-box exercises.

If your buyer can swap you out without pain, you don't have a USP — you have a pricing problem. In crowded markets (including post-pandemic), the game is won by changing the battlefield from price to value and risk reduction for the client. This playbook reframes features into outcomes and positions your offer so a rational buyer can't treat you as interchangeable.   Why do USPs matter more than ever in 2025? Because buyers default to "safe" and "cheap" unless you prove "different" and "better". As procurement tightens across Japan, the US, and Europe, incumbent vendors and new entrants flood categories, dragging deals into discount wars. Shift the conversation from line-items to business outcomes: time saved, revenue gained, risk removed. In Japan's consensus-driven buying, precedent and social proof are de-riskers; in the US, speed and ROI proof points get you shortlisted; in Europe, compliance and sustainability signals matter. Use comparative, sector-specific language (SMB vs. enterprise, B2B vs. consumer) so your value feels native to each buyer's reality. Do now: List 3 outcomes you deliver that a competitor cannot credibly claim, and make them the first 90 seconds of every sales conversation. Summary: Lead with outcomes and risk reduction, not features or price. How do you turn features into buyer-relevant outcomes? Translate specs into "jobs done" with timestamps and dollars attached. If you "sell training," your buyer actually wants higher per-rep revenue and lower ramp time; the workshop is just the tool. Frame cause-and-effect: "As of 2025, teams using our method cut onboarding by 30–60 days," or "post-implementation, win-rates rose 8–12% in enterprise accounts." Compare across contexts: startups prize speed-to-first-value; multinationals prize uniformity at scale. Anchor with entities to boost credibility: "Aligned to Dale Carnegie's behavioural change frameworks and Fortune 500 norms." Do now: For each feature, write: "So that the buyer can ___ by ___ date, measured by ___." Then delete the feature and keep the sentence. Summary: Convert every spec into a measurable, time-bound business result. What proof calms executive risk in consensus markets like Japan? Show durable track record and mainstream precedent, not hype. Tenure ("operating since 1912"), adoption ("serving a majority of Fortune 500"), and multi-market delivery ("100+ countries") signal you're not an experiment. Executives at firms like Toyota and Rakuten want to see that others have done due diligence and achieved consistent outcomes. Present proof as risk offsets: longevity = vendor stability; blue-chip logos = quality validation; global presence = repeatability across geographies and languages. In Europe, add references to ISO-aligned processes; in the US, reference board-level impacts and revenue KPIs. Do now: Build a one-page "Risk Reducers" sheet with 5 credibility markers and a 3-line narrative for each. Summary: Package track record as risk insurance for the buyer. How do you compete on instructor quality without sounding generic? Expose the standard, the filter, and the client-side benefit. "250 hours of train-the-trainer over ~18 months" is a rigorous filter; say what it fixes: variability. Many training vendors have star-and-struggle instructors; your certification process "cures" inconsistency, delivering predictable outcomes across cohorts and locations. Tie this to executive concerns: CFOs fear wasted spend; CHROs fear uneven adoption; Sales VPs fear lost quarters. As of 2025, quantify where possible (completion rates, manager NPS, behavioural transfer at 90 days) and compare to sector benchmarks. Do now: Turn your internal QA process into a 5-step visual the buyer can explain internally. Summary: Make your quality bar tangible and link it to reduced variance in outcomes. How do you avoid the price trap in late-stage negotiations? Re-anchor total value and introduce "switching cost of downgrade." When rivals discount, show the cost of failure: extended ramp, inconsistent delivery, and lost deals. Use a simple model: (Expected Revenue Uplift + Risk Reduction Value) − (Implementation & Change Costs). Add comparative caselets: "In APAC, an SME cut churn 3 points post-programme; in North America, a SaaS enterprise lifted ASP by 6%." Create a "good–better–best" offer that scales outcomes, not just hours. Do now: Bring a 1-page value calculator to every Stage-3 meeting; make the CFO your audience. Summary: Move from hourly rate to enterprise value and downgrade risk. How do you tailor USPs for global rollout without bloating the pitch? Modularise by region, role, and sector; keep a common spine. The spine: outcomes, risk reducers, delivery quality. The modules: language and cultural localisation (Japan vs. ASEAN vs. EMEA), regulatory anchors (EU GDPR, Japan's labour reforms), and sector examples (manufacturing vs. SaaS vs. consumer). Your global network isn't trivia; it's the operational proof that content lands locally — language, idiom, and facilitation calibrated to context. Keep sections tight: 3 bullets per role (CEO, CFO, HR, Sales). Do now: Build a 9-cell USP matrix (Region × Role × Sector) with one killer proof point per cell. Summary: One message, many modules — local relevance on a global chassis. What rehearsal builds salesperson muscle memory on USPs? Daily, 10-minute role plays that start with objections. Freshness decays; script drift is real. Start with the toughest objections ("We can swap you out," "Your competitor is 20% cheaper") and practise crisp, evidence-backed responses that land in under 30 seconds. Include a checklist: outcome first, proof second, risk reducer third, price last. Record, score, and iterate. By week two, rotate markets (Japan vs. US) and sectors to keep reps adaptive. Do now: Add a morning "USP stand-up": 2 reps, 2 objections, 2 minutes each, every day. Summary: Reps don't rise to your USPs — they fall to their practice. Conclusion Pricing fights are the path to oblivion. Position with outcomes, prove with precedent, operationalise with quality, regionalise with intent, and practise until it's muscle memory. That's how you make "different and better" undeniable — and un-swappable.  FAQs What's the fastest way to sharpen a dull USP? Start with outcomes and risk, cut features, and add one killer proof point per market. Then rehearse daily. How many USPs should we show? Three is plenty: one outcome, one risk reducer, one delivery advantage — tailored by role and region. What if a rival undercuts price by 20%? Re-anchor to enterprise value and switching-cost of downgrade; offer modular "good–better–best." Quick actions for leaders Commission a 1-page "Risk Reducers" sheet with proof. Ship a value calculator for CFO-friendly re-anchoring. Launch a daily "USP stand-up" with objection drills.

This week on The Chip Mahoney Show, we're not talking about TVs or toasters — we're talking about ETFs. With the U.S. government set to reopen and markets gearing up for a Q4 liquidity wave, a new kind of Black Friday is here — one where capital itself goes on sale. From Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF filings to the quiet rails being built under ISO 20022, we're entering a season where the smartest money doesn't chase discounts — it creates them. Chip Mahoney breaks down why the timing of these ETF filings isn't random, how institutions are positioning for year-end flow, and what it all means for the rest of us trying to front-run the week. He also reveals which narratives are re-emerging inside Signals, and why this might be the strongest December setup in years — if you know where to look.

This episode dives into the complex and often misunderstood MedTech market in China, featuring Elaine Tan, creator of MedTech Chopsticks, who translates the nation's stringent regulatory language into actionable insights. Elaine and host Etienne Nichols discuss the substantial risks and rewards of bringing a medical device to China, highlighting the country's rapid execution, intense internal competition, and the shift from low-end manufacturing to a focus on high-level innovation. A key risk is that existing international certifications (like ISO and IEC) do not guarantee compliance, requiring local type testing and adherence to specific national standards.The conversation addresses how global medical device companies can structure their strategy amid ongoing geopolitical shifts and the "China for China" policy, which favors domestic products through initiatives like the Volume-Based Procurement (VBP). Strategies such as the dual-strategy approach—localizing low-consumable manufacturing while protecting high-technology IP through joint ventures or careful CMO/CDMO selection—are explored as pragmatic ways to secure market presence and margin. Understanding the regulatory landscape, particularly the NMPA's 2021 overhaul, is crucial for success.Finally, Elaine provides practical guidance for regulatory professionals intimidated by the market. This includes understanding the specific regulatory and clinical pathways, performing a gap analysis against Chinese standards (Product Technical Requirements or PTR), and the critical process of selecting and qualifying a local partner/agent. Elaine reveals a specific, often overlooked hurdle: the agent must possess an NMPA-approved CA (Certification Authorization) USB key to electronically submit registration files on behalf of the foreign manufacturer, a critical piece of the submission puzzle. The discussion also touches on leveraging special zones, like the Hainan Free Trade Zone, for crucial real-world data collection applicable to the Chinese population.Key Timestamps[02:40] Introduction to Elaine Tan, MedTech Chopsticks, and the show's focus on the China market.[05:05] High-level risks and rewards: complexity, lengthy registration, local testing requirements, and IP concerns.[08:08] Discussing the NMPA's 2021 regulatory overhaul and the geopolitical shift toward "China for China."[11:00] The Dual Strategy approach: balancing low-end localization with protecting high-tech IP.[14:48] Using CDMOs/CMOs for pilot projects to manage financial investment risk.[16:20] Leveraging the Hainan Free Trade Zone (Bo'ao region) for pre-market clinical data collection and urgent needs product access.[18:42] Ethological differences and their impact on clinical data justification (e.g., Pulse Oximeters).[20:17] NMPA predicate search: The importance of using the Chinese Classification Catalog to find registered, local predicate devices.[23:00] Guidance for overwhelmed regulatory professionals entering the China market: Clinical strategy and Product Technical Requirements (PTR).[25:52] Pitfalls in partner selection: The necessity of the NMPA-approved CA (Certification Authorization) USB key for submissions.[29:30] Partner qualification: Ensuring the agent can support Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) and QMS self-inspection requirements.[30:52] Final pitfall: International compliance (ISO/IEC) does not automatically ensure China...

That chilling scenario sets the stage for a hands-on tour of CISSP Domain 1.4, where we show how to turn high-level rules into clear, defensible security controls that protect real systems and pass tough audits. We connect the dots between contracts that demand fast breach notifications, laws with sector-specific obligations, and frameworks that teach you how to structure your program.We break down the essentials: identify the data in scope, pick a backbone framework (ISO 27001 or NIST CSF), and map each requirement to specific controls and evidence. You'll hear practical mappings for HIPAA, GLBA, COPPA, FERPA, NYDFS, DORA, SOX, FISMA, and PCI DSS, plus how to handle extraterritorial reach under GDPR and data localization that shapes your cloud strategy. We also highlight why contractual terms often outrun statutes and how to build a requirements register so operations knows exactly what to log, how fast to notify, and which controls must exist.Then we get tactical. Learn how to create a regulatory register, assemble audit-ready proof (policies, procedures, configs, logs, training, attestations), and run incident tabletop exercises that include vendors and clarify when the notification clock starts. For industrial environments with rare patch windows, we offer pragmatic steps: maintain a software bill of materials, verify package sources, enforce code signing where possible, document every change, and compensate with monitoring and segmentation when upgrades are risky. By the end, you'll have a blueprint to translate compliance into resilience—fast enough for 72-hour breach clocks, strong enough to handle delayed threats, and simple enough to sustain.Subscribe for more CISSP-ready training, share this episode with your security team, and leave a review to help others find the show.

In this episode of Navigating the Grid, Kellie sits down with Bryan Villano, Co-Founder of Contract Power, to explore how AI is reshaping contract management, compliance, and day-to-day asset management for renewable energy portfolios.Bryan shares the origin story of Contract Power — launched during the early days of generative AI — and explains how his experience managing massive, complex projects exposed the overwhelming burden of navigating thousands of pages of PPAs, ISO documents, tariffs, and regulatory requirements.Together, Kellie and Bryan dive into the real risks asset managers face: buried obligations, inconsistent contract language, 14,000-page document stacks, and high-stakes deadlines that make it nearly impossible to juggle contractual compliance with operational fires.Bryan walks through how tools like Fleet Sense and Clause Sense streamline obligation extraction, summarize metadata across entire portfolios, and give teams confidence that nothing slips through the cracks.If you're an asset manager, developer, or anyone responsible for contract oversight in renewables, this conversation will resonate — and show you what's possible when AI meets the realities of project operations.

In the second episode in our three part series titled: Focus. Build. Win, I sit down with James Derby, EVP of Merchant Facing Product at Payroc, to unpack how a core product strategy transformed scattered tools into a focused growth engine for partners and merchants. Instead of mastering dozens of third‑party options, the team picked a few products to go deep on, built vertical features that matter, and tightened the feedback loop from sales floor to roadmap.James walks through Roc Terminal+ for broad processing needs, Roc Giving for nonprofits, and Roc Services for field service teams, including a new scheduling component aimed at competing upmarket. The thread tying it all together is software-led sales: lead with the operational win and let payments follow. That shift brings faster deployments, better support, and real economics for ISOs and agents, with an 8–11% margin lift on new core placements and lower attrition as support improves. Owning the gateway and settlement stack gives Payroc the control to integrate acquisitions, standardize security, and ship features at speed without vendor drag.We also get into the commercialization playbook: building a business case with sales input, targeting underserved MCCs, choosing build vs. white label, and running disciplined pilots before GA. Post‑launch, James emphasizes data, not vibes - tracking adoption, revenue, support quality, and direct merchant feedback to keep product-market fit tight. Looking forward, tap to pay continues to rise, standalone terminals slowly recede, and consolidation among large processors creates room for agile teams that ship vertical SaaS with integrated payments.If you care about turning product focus into partner success, this conversation delivers practical detail you can use.
