In der aktuellen Podcast-Folge hatte ich die Gelegenheit, mit Dr. Thomas Kiefer zu sprechen – Journalist, Asien-Experte und profunder Kenner der chinesischen Industriepolitik. Seit Ende der 1980er Jahre beobachtet er vor Ort in Shanghai die Entwicklungen, war unter anderem in Joint Ventures wie Shanghai Volkswagen unterwegs und hat über Jahrzehnte hinweg verschiedene Länder Asiens bereist und analysiert. Sein Fokus liegt dabei weniger auf einzelnen Produkten als vielmehr auf den politischen, wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Strukturen, die dahinterstehen. Schon früh erkannte Thomas, wie weitreichend die chinesische Industriepolitik geplant und umgesetzt wird – insbesondere im Bereich der Elektromobilität. „Diese Entwicklung ist nicht primär nach außen gerichtet, um die Weltmärkte zu erobern. Sie ist binnengerichtet – auf die ökologischen und gesellschaftlichen Herausforderungen Chinas selbst.“ Bereits in den 1990er Jahren sei das Ziel gewesen, die Luftverschmutzung in Städten zu reduzieren und technologische Innovationen voranzutreiben, um langfristig nachhaltige Mobilitätslösungen zu schaffen. Im Gespräch hebt Thomas hervor, wie grundlegend anders die chinesische Politik tickt: Während in Europa sektorale Einzellösungen dominieren, verfolgt China eine ganzheitliche Strategie. „Man denkt nicht in Schubladen, sondern vernetzt ökonomische, ökologische und soziale Aspekte.“ Ein Beispiel: Als Shanghai Volkswagen expandieren wollte, bestand die Stadt darauf, auch Bauern aus dem betroffenen Dorf zu beschäftigen. Diese Art der Systemvernetzung sei typisch für chinesische Industriepolitik. Besonders spannend war seine Einschätzung zur Fehlerkultur. Während hierzulande oft Erfolge ins Schaufenster gestellt und Fehler vermieden werden, gehe man in China viel offener damit um. „Man weiß, dass man noch nicht am Ziel ist. Fehler werden benannt – und daraus wird gelernt.“ Diese Haltung sieht er als eine zentrale Voraussetzung für die enorme Geschwindigkeit und Konsequenz, mit der China die Elektromobilität ausbaut. Kritisch äußert sich Thomas zur europäischen Förder- und Industriepolitik. Subventionen für Batteriefabriken, die am Ende gar nicht gebaut werden, bezeichnet er als „eine Katastrophe“. Es fehle an Ergebnisverantwortung und technischem Sachverstand in den zuständigen Ministerien. Gleichzeitig sieht er Potenzial für ein besseres Miteinander: „Wenn wir es schaffen, chinesische Unternehmen nicht als Feindbild zu sehen, sondern als Partner – dann kann das eine klassische Win-win-Situation werden.“ Viele chinesische Autohersteller würden laut Thomas gerne in Deutschland produzieren, halten sich an Tarifverträge und Arbeitnehmerrechte – stoßen aber auf strukturelle Skepsis. Dabei könnte Europa profitieren: „Die Technologie kommt zu uns, ohne dass wir einen Cent Subvention zahlen müssen.“ Voraussetzung dafür sei jedoch mehr Offenheit und Neugier. Denn auch das sei ein zentrales Learning aus seinem China-Blick: Wer sich ohne Vorurteile auf andere Perspektiven einlässt, gewinnt Erkenntnisse, die vorher gar nicht denkbar waren. Nun aber genug der Vorrede – steigen wir direkt ein ins Gespräch mit Dr. Thomas Kiefer.

In der aktuellen Podcast-Folge hatte ich das Vergnügen, mit Pirmin Reimeir zu sprechen. Pirmin ist Lead Product Manager bei Audi im Kooperationsprojekt mit SAIC Motors – und das für die neue Marke AUDI, die in China bewusst mit vier Großbuchstaben geschrieben wird. Gemeinsam mit einem kleinen Team arbeitet er daran, eine eigenständige Audi-Schwester auf dem chinesischen Markt zu etablieren, die jüngere, technikaffine Kund:innen anspricht – und sich damit ganz klar von der klassischen Premium-Marke mit den vier Ringen abgrenzt. Was sofort klar wird: Das Projekt ist mehr als ein weiterer Marktentritt. Es ist ein Paradigmenwechsel. „Früher haben wir Technologien aus Deutschland nach China gebracht und sie lokal adaptiert. Jetzt entwickeln wir direkt vor Ort – mit dem Ohr am chinesischen Kunden.“ Der Fokus liegt auf einem radikal lokalisierten Ansatz: Produkte werden in China für China entwickelt, mit lokaler Plattform, Softwarearchitektur und Design. Und das ist kein Zufall: Zwei Drittel aller weltweit verkauften Elektroautos rollen in China vom Band. Wer hier mithalten will, muss anders denken. Ein Beispiel für diesen neuen Ansatz ist der Audi Assistant – ein digitaler Avatar im OLED-Display, der mit den Nutzer:innen interagiert. „So ein Feature würde ein durchschnittlich 20 Jahre älterer europäischer Kunde vielleicht als Spielerei empfinden – in China trifft es den Nerv der Zielgruppe,“ so Pirmin. Gleichzeitig bleibt die technische DNA erhalten: das Premium-Fahrerlebnis, das sich durch die Audi-typische Abstimmung von Fahrwerk und Quattro-Antrieb auszeichnet, wird weiterhin maßgeblich in Europa entwickelt. Spannend ist, wie sich das neue China-Audi bewusst vom traditionellen Joint Venture mit FAW und der globalen Audi-Marke unterscheidet – und gleichzeitig Verbundenheit signalisiert. Beide teilen sich den Leitsatz „Vorsprung durch Technik“, doch die Interpretation unterscheidet sich je nach Zielgruppe. Die neue Marke spielt stärker mit mutigem Design, digitalen Features und jugendlicher Bildsprache. Dennoch ist sie tief in der Audi-Heritage verwurzelt. „Auch die ersten Audis trugen zunächst vier Buchstaben, bevor die Ringe kamen“, erinnert Pirmin. Was mich beeindruckt hat, ist der kollaborative Spirit, den Pirmin beschreibt. In China herrsche eine andere Offenheit – man denke in Win-win-Szenarien, arbeite transparenter zusammen, auch über Unternehmensgrenzen hinweg. „In Europa zeigt jeder, was er kann, aber keiner lässt den anderen reinschauen. Hier versucht man gemeinsam, den Kuchen größer zu machen.“ Auch organisatorisch agiert das China-Team agiler, mit flachen Strukturen und schnellen Entscheidungen – oft per WeChat. Diese Geschwindigkeit – der berühmte „China Speed“ – ist für Pirmin kein Nachteil, sondern täglicher Antrieb. „Hier passiert gerade die spannendste Entwicklung der Automobilindustrie weltweit.“ Er schätzt den digitalen Alltag, das Tempo, die Dynamik – beruflich wie privat. Das Projekt ist für ihn mehr als ein Job. Es ist Teil einer grundlegenden Transformation, die Audi in China gerade durchlebt – und vielleicht bald auf andere Märkte abstrahlen wird. Nun aber genug der Vorworte – hör am besten selbst rein und erfahre aus erster Hand, wie Audi mit vier Buchstaben den vielleicht wichtigsten Automarkt der Welt neu denkt.

In dieser Podcast-Episode spreche ich mit Dr. Elmar Waldschmitt, Stabsstellenleiter Unternehmensentwicklung und Geschäftsführer des Healthy Hub bei der BIG direkt gesund. Wir tauchen tief in die Welt der gesetzlichen Krankenkassen, Digitalisierung und Innovation ein. Elmar erklärt mir auf verständliche Weise den Unterschied zwischen gesetzlicher und privater Krankenversicherung und warum Innovation für die BIG so wichtig ist, um im Wettbewerb zu bestehen. Er beschreibt die Herausforderungen, die die sektorale Struktur des deutschen Gesundheitswesens mit sich bringt und wie der Healthy Hub diese angeht. 5 Highlights der Episode: Gesetzliche vs. Private Krankenversicherung: Elmar erklärt den Unterschied zwischen dem Umlagesystem der GKV und dem Risikoprinzip der PKV, das Solidarprinzip und das Sachleistungsprinzip. Der Healthy Hub als „Reallabor": Elmar beschreibt den Healthy Hub nicht als klassischen Inkubator, sondern als ein Joint Venture von vier gesetzlichen Krankenkassen, das innovative digitale Gesundheitslösungen entwickelt und in die Versorgung integriert. Er betont, dass sie keine Apps kaufen, sondern versorgungsorientierte Lösungen. Die Herausforderungen der sektoralen Struktur: Wir diskutieren, wie die sektorale Aufteilung des Gesundheitswesens die Versorgung erschwert und wie digitale Lösungen dazu beitragen können, die verschiedenen Akteure besser zu vernetzen und die Patientenreise zu optimieren. Das Problem der fehlenden durchgängigen Kommunikation zwischen den einzelnen Sektoren (Hausarzt, Krankenhaus, Reha etc.) wird anschaulich erläutert. DIGAs und darüber hinaus: Wir klären den Unterschied zwischen DIGAs (digitale Gesundheitsanwendungen) und anderen digitalen Lösungen. Elmar erklärt, warum der Healthy Hub sich auch auf Lösungen konzentriert, die keine DIGAs sind, und wie sie diese in ihre Versorgungsmodelle integrieren. Konkrete Beispiele, wie eine App zur Früherkennung von Vorhofflimmern und ein HPV-Testkit für zu Hause, illustrieren dies. Der Healthy Hub Wettbewerb: Ich erfahre, wie der Healthy Hub innovative Startups findet und unterstützt. Elmar beschreibt den Ablauf der Wettbewerbe und wie diese dazu beitragen, neue Versorgungslösungen für die Versicherten zu entwickeln.

By Adam Turteltaub Joint ventures are created to capitalize on a business opportunity, but they come with challenges. Each partner may have a different experience with or attitude towards compliance. They may have distinctly different cultures, and, in the worst case, may each be expecting the other to be watching compliance when, in fact, no one is. Hassan Chaudry, a member of the SCCE & HCCA Board and Chief Compliance Officer of POSCO JV, a General Motors joint venture, recommends several keys to success in JVs. First, having meaningful conversations with leadership right at the start is important, especially if it is face-to-face. This helps establish rapport and makes top management more comfortable with the role of compliance. Look to commonalities between the partners, not just the difference. In his case, with one party being from North America and the other from South Korea, there were different approaches and laws, but both countries are members of the OECD, and its guidance for compliance programs provided a common reference point. Once the groundwork is set, take the time to meet with employees from senior and middle management, as well as the front line. Also, don't forget the board: setting expectations with them and building an ongoing line of communication is essential. He also recommends treating the JV like a start-up, not an established company. Finally, put yourself in the shoes of joint venture partners. Look at the business from their perspective, and that will help you better understand what will make for a truly successful compliance program.

Taj Singh, CEO, and Adam Cegielski, President of First Nordic Metals (TSX.V: FNM) (OTCQB: FNMCF), join me to review their recent analyst site visit, the acquisition of EMX Royalty's Nordic Business Unit, the pending drill assays from the Aida Target at the Paubäcken Project,  drilling commencing this summer at the Nippas Target at the Storjuktan, and then the Harpsund Target at Paubäcken, all located on their 100% owned property along the Gold Line Belt of Sweden.   We start off with Adam recapping the key takeaways from their analyst and strategic shareholders site visit to see the flagship Barsele Project in a Joint Venture with Agnico Eagle, and then out to see the ongoing drilling at the Aida Target at Paubäcken.    This led into a discussion about the growing institutional and analyst coverage of the company, and the keen interest from investors in the exploration upside along the Gold Line Belt, as well as the value already underpinning the company at the 2.4 million ounces of gold delineated at Barsele.   Next, Taj walks us through a few key drilling targets located at their Paubäcken Project, getting the exploration work this year.   We touch upon the high-priority Aida Target (which is awaiting assays in the near-term), the Harpsund target which has shown promising Base-of-Till (BOT) drilling, surface till sampling, and geophysics that is gearing up to be drilled this summer, and the further ongoing targeting work at the Brokojan target.   Pivoting over to their Storjuktan Project, there have been some exciting developments at five new regional targets with gold-in-till anomalies matching geophysical data in both the north and south, with the Bråna target even showing outcropping mineralization and becoming a new target of interest for this year.  Nippas is still the most derisked target at Storjuktan, and drilling is anticipated to be starting imminently in this next phase of the 25,000 meter exploration program. Wrapping up Adam lays out the case for even more institutional coverage to be announced in the months to come, the strong financial position the company is in with over $7million still in the treasury for their ongoing exploration program, and the growing interest on Sweden as a jurisdiction for gold development projects.     If you have any questions for Taj or Adam, regarding First Nordic Metals, then please email them to me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of First Nordic Metals 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 First Nordic Metals

Revisiting U.S.-China Relations: Manufacturing, Tariffs, and Opportunities with John LingWelcome to another episode of the Asia Business Podcast. This week, we're joined by John Ling, Managing Director at LinVest Consulting. John has a wealth of experience in facilitating inbound foreign investment into the United States, particularly from China. As the dynamics between the US and China continue to evolve, John provides an essential perspective on the current state of manufacturing investments and the impact of tariffs on these decisions.Connect with JohnVisit LinVestA Glimpse into the US-China Tariff LandscapeIn light of ongoing trade tensions, tariffs have become a significant factor influencing Chinese companies' decisions to manufacture in the US. John explains that while tariffs are a considerable consideration, they are by no means the sole driver for Chinese investments. Other critical factors include supply chain stability and the state of overcapacity within China. This comprehensive approach has led many Chinese companies to view the US as a lucrative market opportunity.Historical Context and Current TrendsJohn delves into the history of Chinese investments in the US, reminiscing about the pioneers who dared to establish manufacturing operations in America decades ago. This historical context provides a backdrop to current trends, where meaningful Chinese investment projects are increasingly commonplace. Despite political headwinds and the complexities of US tariff policies, many projects have thrived, demonstrating the long-term profitability of these ventures.Challenges and Strategic AdaptationsDespite the challenges posed by tariffs, especially those reaching as high as 145% on certain products, Chinese companies have found innovative ways to adapt. For instance, some have capitalized on their operational excellence and responsiveness to customer demands. This adaptability has allowed them to maintain competitiveness in the US market, often outpacing domestic peers in terms of quality and pricing.Joint Ventures and Local PartnershipsAn interesting development noted by John is the growing openness among Chinese investors to consider joint ventures and partnerships in the US. This trend mirrors the historical path taken by US companies entering China and is seen as a strategic move to mitigate risks and foster cooperation. Such collaborations hold promise in bridging cultural and operational gaps, benefiting both parties involved.Policy and Incentive LandscapeWhile some may have anticipated increased incentives from state and federal governments, the reality is more nuanced. John emphasizes that decisions to invest should not rely solely on incentives but rather on broader strategic considerations. Nonetheless, a fair and stable political environment remains crucial for planning significant capital investments.Forecasting Future DevelopmentsLooking forward, John remains optimistic about the potential for improved US-China relations, driven by mutual benefits and strategic interests. He speculates that as governments engage in negotiations, more opportunities for Chinese manufacturing projects in the US may arise. This could mirror the path taken by Japanese companies decades ago, fostering better understanding and trust between nations.Conclusion and Contact InformationIn closing, the conversation with John Ling sheds light on the intricate interplay of tariffs, strategic adaptation, and international partnerships shaping the manufacturing landscape between China and the US. For those interested in further insights or potential collaborations, John is accessible via LinkedIn or through LinVest LLC. Timestamps00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome00:54 Impact of Tariffs on Chinese Manufacturing in the US01:16 Historical Context and Evolution of Chinese Investment03:48 Current Challenges and Strategic Adjustments07:44 Success Stories and Future Outlook16:13 Government Policies and Incentives25:11 Cultural and Operational Insights37:24 Conclusion and Contact Information  ProducerJacob ThomasFollow UsLinkedInApple Podcasts

What's up, everyone! Today we're sharing an episode with Joseph Vellone, the CEO of ChargeScape — a Joint Venture between Ford, Honda, BMW, and Nissan. -----Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | Pocket Casts-----As the grid continues to buckle under the pressure of ever-increasing demand, it's more important than ever to find ways to manage the existing load. However, it's not all bad. One of the main demand drivers might be the core solution to these demand problems—namely, EVs, when paired with smart charging software. You see, all these EVs are essentially backup batteries. Currently, not all are equipped with bi-directional charging, but most new vehicles hitting the roads are. So, not only can a smart charging software, managed by utilities, alleviate demand on the grid, it can also pull energy from the vehicles when the time is right (again, when the hardware capabilities are present). -----Support our Work with a Paid Subscription-----This fundamentally shifts our perspective on vehicles. Instead of a cost center, it could earn you money by purchasing cheap energy, or charging on solar for free, and selling back to the grid at peak demand times. This is the type of utopian future we work towards — and the best part, it's becoming reality in front of us. Topics **01:35 Revolutionizing EV Charging**05:21 Joseph Vellone's Journey in Renewable Energy**07:47 The Unique Opportunity at ChargeScape**12:00 Transforming the EV Charging Experience**13:30 Make Money w/ Smart Charging**18:04 The Future of EVs + Renewable Energy**20:03 Building a High-Performance Team**23:10 Managing Startup Intensity Without Burnout**25:58 How to Successfully Sell to Utilities**28:50 The Benefits of Having Automakers as Strategic Investors**31:17 The Role of AI in ChargeScape's Strategy**33:44 Understanding EV Industry Backlash**37:59 Resilience of EV Charging Amid Political PushbackLinks**Joseph Vellone | ChargeScape**Connect with Somil on LinkedIn | Support the showIf you're gonna change the world, you're gonna need a world-class team.

C3 ai (AI) stock surges after a narrower-than-expected 4Q adjusted loss and in-line revenue. Tony Zipparro reacts to the report, citing the expanded joint venture with Baker Hughes through 2028 as a positive catalyst. However, he remains cautious due to C3 ai's high valuation and lack of profitability, comparing it to peers like Palantir (PLTR) and Snowflake (SNOW).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

In this episode, we have a returning guest who appeared in Jan 2025 (Episode 497), Juan Carlos, President and CEO of Canstar Resources, a TSX-Venture listed junior miner focused on mineral exploration in Newfoundland, Canada. Juan has 15 years of experience in executive management, capital markets, finance, and commercial and strategic development. Juan gives us an update on proceedings since we last spoke, their new JV agreement, VMS deposits, and why they are attractive propositions, their recently launched deep geophysics survey update, and discusses their unique board and what they bring to the company and much more. KEY TAKEAWAYS CanStar Resources has entered a significant joint venture with VMS Mining Corporation, which involves a phased investment totalling $11.5 million for a 60% ownership stake in CanStar's VMS assets. This structure is designed to be non-dilutive for existing shareholders. The Buckins District in Newfoundland is historically significant for its high-grade VMS deposits. CanStar's projects, Buckins and Mary March, are located in this area, which has seen limited exploration using modern geophysical techniques, suggesting substantial untapped potential. CanStar is also exploring its Golden Bay project, which has significant antimony potential. Antimony is critical for military and high-tech applications, and its rising demand presents a strategic opportunity for the company. CanStar plans to advance its exploration programs at both the Buckins and Mary March projects, with ongoing geophysical surveys and drilling activities. The company aims to execute its strategy efficiently in 2025, leveraging its partnerships and expertise to drive discoveries. BEST MOMENTS "CanStar Resources is a TSX-V listed junior that's focused on transforming neglected mineral systems into strategic assets for the next supercycle." "This joint venture... is non-dilutive and it's serious capital in the ground on an accelerated basis, really looking for a tier one discovery." "VMS deposits are very interesting in part because they're polymetallic... they give you economic flexibility and exposure to not only critical metals, but also precious metals." "The best place to look for a new deposit is in the shadow of the headframe." "Antimony is a mineral that is absolutely critical for military and high technology applications."

Jake emphasizes the value of unique offers and joint ventures in scaling businesses effectively. Takeaways Jake started his journey as an aspiring inventor. He transitioned from prototyping to marketing for golf courses. Networking and free work helped him build a portfolio. The golf course marketing business faced challenges due to client understanding. COVID-19 forced a shift to month-to-month pricing and lower fees. Jake found success in real estate marketing with a dedicated sales partner. The business scaled significantly, reaching a million-dollar month. They introduced recurring revenue through support fees. Adaptability was key to navigating business challenges. Jake's journey emphasizes the importance of persistence and learning. Rapid growth can lead to significant challenges in management and quality control. Outsourcing can be beneficial, but it requires careful oversight to maintain quality. Transitioning to a new industry requires strategic planning and understanding of financial metrics. Effective marketing must resonate with the consumer and avoid jargon. Building a unique offer can differentiate a business in a crowded market. Understanding the consumer's perspective is crucial for successful marketing. Hiring should be done thoughtfully to avoid overstaffing and inefficiencies. A lean business model can lead to greater stability and profitability. Joint ventures can provide growth opportunities without the need for full acquisition.

We're talking about how tariffs will affect the semiconductor industry.

Christian Osgood is a real estate investor, educator, and host of the Multifamily Strategy podcast and YouTube channel. After starting his career in sales and acquiring a few rentals using the Dave Ramsey method, he made a strategic leap into multifamily through creative financing. Today, Christian owns over 300 units, operates a property management company, and helps others achieve financial independence through value-driven, relationship-based investing.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Apartment Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways: Christian scaled from owning duplexes to 300+ units in under five years by mastering creative finance. He focuses on building authentic relationships with property owners rather than cold prospecting or marketing. His strategy centers on two questions: “How do I buy it?” and “How do I never lose it?” Raising capital becomes simple when you bring a strong deal, a smart structure, and clear alignment with investor interests. JV deals and seller financing often offer more flexibility and alignment than traditional syndications.     Topics: From Dave Ramsey to Real Estate Freedom Started with a goal to retire his wife, transitioned from two duplexes to over 300 units. Emphasized holding properties long-term by ensuring they cash flow from day one. Avoids dependence on future sales for profitability. How a 38-Unit Seller-Financed Deal Changed Everything Acquired a distressed property listed for 12 years by offering a six-month no-payment period. Secured seller financing at 4% with a $300K down payment, raised from new connections. Repaired collections and operations, appraised at $4.1M within 11 months. Used refinance to cash out investors and retain full ownership. Deal, Debt, Equity: A Simple Capital-Raising Framework Christian emphasizes a “deal-first” approach: find the opportunity, secure the financing, then raise the remaining equity. Capital is easier to raise when you're solving problems for both the seller and investor. Transparent communication and downside protection build trust and drive investment. Joint Ventures vs. Syndication Joint ventures allow for more creative structures, faster execution, and clear alignment of roles. Syndication is not wrong—just often unnecessary for small to midsize deals with fewer partners. The Power of Relationships in Real Estate Christian meets with owners weekly for coffee instead of cold calling. His best deals and investor connections come from these low-pressure conversations. Many owners eventually offer to finance their entire portfolios after seeing his track record and integrity. Lessons from a $4.5M “Shiny Object” Mistake Bought a resort early in his journey that didn't align with his strengths or goals. Learned the importance of sticking to your lane and clarifying your business identity.
