In this episode of The Product Podcast by Product School, Carlos González de Villaumbrosia sits down with Cristina Cordova, Chief Operating Officer at Linear, the product development system built for teams and agents. Linear raised $82 million in a Series C round in June 2025 at a $1.25 billion valuation. The company has been profitable since 2021, and serves over 20,000 paid business customers, from seed-stage startups to Fortune 100 enterprises, with a team of just 140 people. Before Linear, Cristina joined Stripe as one of its first employees, and led Platform and Partnerships at Notion.What you'll learn:Why keeping headcount intentionally lean is a strategic advantageReplacing traditional interviews with paid two to five-day projectsWhy PMs are the fastest-growing power users of agentic toolsKey takeaways:A small team is not a small business. Revenue, customers, and growth rate matter more than headcount.If you fully delegate your AI thinking, you lose your native understanding of how these products actually workAgentic workflows are now the default, not a feature. The companies that treat them that way will pull ahead.Credits:Host: Carlos Gonzalez de VillaumbrosiaGuest: Cristina CordovaSocial Links:Find out more about Product School hereFollow our Podcast on TikTok hereFollow Product School on LinkedIn here

The fashion and textiles industry accounts for up to 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions, consumes 93 billion cubic meters of water annually, and generates 92 million tons of waste each year — yet only 1% of textiles are recycled back into new products. In this episode, we sit down with three leading experts to unpack one of the most resource-intensive industries on the planet and explore what a genuinely circular textiles sector could look like.We're joined by Mark Sumner, Head of Textiles at WRAP; Sarah Morley, Strategic Engagement Manager at WRAP Americas; and Linda Breggin, Senior Attorney at the Environmental Law Institute. Together, we trace the full lifecycle of a garment from field to landfill, examine fast fashion as a consumer behavior rather than just a retail phenomenon, and explore how circular design, durability standards, voluntary industry agreements, and policy intervention are beginning to reshape the system.Whether you're working in sustainability, environmental policy, waste reduction, or supply chain management, this episode offers both the big-picture framework and the on-the-ground insights you need to understand where the textiles industry is headed — and what it will take to get there.

ICH Q13 explains how pharmaceutical companies can apply batch definition, traceability, control strategy, validation, release, and lifecycle management to continuous manufacturing of drug substances and drug products.Learn more:https://www.letscombinate.comSchedule a call:https://calendly.com/letscombinate/let-s-combinate-intro-sessionIn this episode, Subhi Saadeh explains ICH Q13 and the key concepts behind continuous manufacturing in pharmaceutical manufacturing.The core question behind ICH Q13 is simple:How do you apply traditional quality concepts like batch definition, traceability, control strategy, validation, release, and lifecycle management when the manufacturing process does not stop?This episode covers the major Q13 concepts, including the difference between batch and continuous manufacturing, how batches can be defined in continuous manufacturing, the three continuous manufacturing models described in the guideline, residence time distribution (RTD), disturbance handling, control strategy, validation, release, and lifecycle management.Subhi also discusses why batches still matter in continuous manufacturing. Even when a process operates as a continuous flow, batches remain essential for traceability, investigations, trending, stability programs, release decisions, and recalls.Key topics covered:• What ICH Q13 is and why it matters• Batch manufacturing versus continuous manufacturing• Why manufacturers still need batch definitions• Time-based, mass-based, and campaign-based batch definitions• The three continuous manufacturing models described in ICH Q13• Residence Time Distribution (RTD)• Why RTD matters for traceability and investigations• Disturbance impact assessment and material disposition• Control strategy considerations for startup, steady-state operation, and disturbances• The role of Process Analytical Technology (PAT)• Disturbance management using magnitude, duration, and frequency• Validation considerations for continuous manufacturing• Release strategies supported by process understanding and monitoring• Lifecycle management and risk-based change controlTimestamps:00:00 ICH Q13 Overview00:48 Why Batches Matter01:21 Batch vs. Continuous Manufacturing01:59 Defining Batches02:48 Three Continuous Manufacturing Models03:54 Residence Time Distribution (RTD)06:05 Control Strategy Basics07:19 Disturbance Handling08:19 Validation, Release, and Lifecycle Management10:16 Wrap-Up and Next StepsSource referenced in this episode:ICH Q13: Continuous Manufacturing of Drug Substances and Drug ProductsFinal version adopted 16 November 2022https://database.ich.org/sites/default/files/ICH_Q13_Step4_Guideline_2022_1116.pdfReferences to ICH Q13 guideline and are included for educational commentary and discussion.Questions or feedback?
Is your business — the very thing you built to have more freedom — consuming all of your wealth, energy, and identity? While early-stage entrepreneurs can easily lose the flexibility they sought in the endless pursuit of "the next level," late-career business owners face their own strange contradictions. Everything looks great on paper, but personally, the thought of stepping away is both exciting and disorienting. Successful exits aren't just about creating bigger piles of money or boundless free time. Regardless of the phase you're in today, successful entrepreneurship is about addressing the complexity of planning a new life and identity, redefining structure, connection, and meaning. In what ways are you investing in your future today to make your next phase feel more meaningful, not just financially secure? SK Wealth Partner Mac Richards and CEO Jason Archambault walk through the lifecycle of a business owner — the emotional, identity-driven, lumpy, non-linear experience — from laying the foundation and scaling to the eventual exit. Listen as they explore the hidden tensions most business owners carry, like "Am I building personal wealth or just a bigger company at an unsustainable pace?" and "If I don't have my business, who am I?"

In this episode of Future Focused: Sophisticated Estate Planning, host Michael Clear welcomes Kenley Stark, Counsel in the Private Client Services Department at Wiggin and Dana, for an in-depth conversation about the complex lifecycle of art ownership. Together, they delve into the many stages collectors face—from the initial acquisition to the eventual sale or transfer—revealing how each step brings its own set of complex legal, financial, and logistical challenges that go far beyond the simple act of buying art. Michael and Kenley emphasize the necessity of thoroughly reviewing sale documentation to safeguard title, ensure authenticity, and understand risk exposure. They also discuss the critical roles of art advisors, the complexities of physically taking possession of art, and why securing the right insurance and storage solutions is essential for protecting both the artwork and the owner's investment.

[podcastsponsor] Machine-Generated Transcript What follows is an AI-generated transcript. The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn: In this week’s In Ear Insights, we are talking about Enterprise AI 101. I am in the midst of a series in the Trust Insights newsletter, which you can get at TrustInsights.ai/newsletter. Part one was last week on seven different aspects of enterprise AI. But Katie, you said it would probably be helpful to level set what enterprise AI is and how it differs from SMB AI, mid-market AI, consumer AI, and so on. Katie Robbert: It is interesting because I feel like every time we jump on to record a podcast, there is a whole new set of vocabulary that I need to get caught up with. We need to make sure that everyone else knows what we are talking about because there is nothing worse than listening to a podcast or reading an article and having no idea what the author is talking about because they are introducing a concept but not really explaining it. I wanted to take this episode to talk about what enterprise AI is. Since you and I have not defined it, I am going to take my best guess at what enterprise AI is using some logic and deduction. I could be wrong, and that is why I think it is worth covering. From my perspective, if I had to put a definition to it, I am assuming enterprise AI is the type of AI implementation that occurs at an enterprise-size company. That sounds overly simplistic, but the bigger the organization, the more red tape, the more politics, the more departments, the more stakeholders, and the more governance there is. There are a lot more complications versus a small business like we are, where we can just decide one day, “Hey, I am going to start using this tool.” There are no real hurdles to go through. Then you have those mid-sized companies where you start to introduce some of those hurdles. You might need to work with your IT team to make sure that everything is in compliance. You might need to make sure that you have a place to host these new pieces of software, and that is not something that the marketing team is necessarily responsible for. Then you get to the enterprise-size companies where everything is completely siloed. Even in the best enterprise-sized companies, you are going to run into these silos. Because no one person is responsible for everything, you typically have multiple CEOs. Depending on what part of the country you are in, you might have a board for every different division of the company. If you are a Procter & Gamble and you have hundreds of product lines underneath, each of those is their own individual business. Each of those businesses are not necessarily talking to each other or sharing resources. That is my logical guess at what enterprise AI is. Christopher S. Penn: That is what I started with until I started doing the research into it. I realized that is not what it is. The generally accepted definition is AI within any commercially regulated entity. I realized as I was going through the research that commercially regulated means you have external regulation imposed on the company. It might be a 50-person company, but if they work in HIPAA or FINRA, they have to behave in highly regulated ways. Whether you are publicly traded or, for example, colleges that have to adhere to FFIEC rules and FERPA rules, enterprise AI is about operating AI—whether classical or generative—in a commercially regulated environment where you have externally mandated requirements that you must meet. Your definition for small business stuff makes total sense in that environment because Trust Insights is not a regulated company. However, when we work with our healthcare clients, we have to behave as though we are an enterprise company because we have to conform to their requirements. Katie Robbert: I am glad we are talking about this because the terminology is confusing; when you think of an enterprise company, you are not thinking of a commercially regulated company. I have to wonder why it is not called commercially regulated AI versus non-commercially regulated AI. It is a mouthful and a little bit harder to remember, but it is more descriptive and more accurate. I think like me, a lot of people are going to get confused about what enterprise AI actually is. Christopher S. Penn: A lot of this is because our background is in marketing, so we use the term enterprise to just mean a big company. If we want to market to enterprise companies, we are not marketing to a 50-person firm; we are marketing to a 50,000-person firm. In a lot of CRM software, the dividing line is typically 10,000 employees or 100 million in revenue. This is especially relevant because you see a lot of AI companies like Anthropic and OpenAI in a fight with Microsoft to try and gain a foothold into those enterprises. Microsoft, with their Copilot offering, has dominance by the very fact that their legacy Office 365 stuff is approved in those regulated environments. Katie Robbert: It is ironic because we spent so much time admittedly dismissing Microsoft’s Copilot as the less than version of generative AI, and now Microsoft is getting the last laugh on everyone. They are saying, “You have to use me because I have already been approved by IT and governance, and good luck.” You are stuck with whatever I decide to give you. If I were Microsoft, I would be petty and say, “You guys spent way too much time dismissing me and calling me inferior, so too bad.” Christopher S. Penn: A lot of that, as we have talked about many times on stage, is that the reason Copilot has fewer capabilities than other systems is specifically because of the regulated environment. It is trivial for Google to foist something on consumers and say, “Now we are going to read all your Gmail.” That does not fly in a regulated industry. Katie Robbert: That understanding is really helpful to the people who are saddled with Microsoft Copilot because we hear complaints about why they cannot use other shiny objects. If you are in a 50,000-person company and you weren’t there when the regulatory standards were decided upon, you are sitting there wondering why you cannot use Gemini to generate ad headlines. Then you do it on the side and get in trouble because there is no clear documentation saying why you have to use Copilot and nothing else. What we are hearing is that employees in companies required to use Microsoft Copilot are using other models on the side. That information is still getting filtered into the organization, and it is a huge governance problem. Christopher S. Penn: Completely. In enterprise AI, there are 20 different components to being ready. I derived this from the US federal government's NIST AI regulations and the EU AI Act, which is the gold standard. Katie Robbert: I want to see if you can get all 20. Christopher S. Penn: One, Strategy and Operating Model; two, Governance Policy and the AI Council; three, Legal, Regulatory, and Compliance. Katie Robbert: Are you reading this off a screen? Christopher S. Penn: I am 100% reading this off the Trust Insights Enterprise AI Landscape Field Handbook. Katie Robbert: Fine, continue. Christopher S. Penn: Four, Risk Management and Assurance; five, Responsible AI and Ethics; six, Data Strategy for AI; seven, Model Strategy and Life Cycle, because you can’t just change models whenever you want; eight, Infrastructure, Compute, and Topology; nine, ML Ops, LLM Ops, and Engineering; 10, Security; 11, Privacy and Data Protection; 12, Intellectual Property; 13, Third Party Risk and Vendor Management; 14, Financial Management and FinOps; 15, Workforce Talent and organizational behavior; 16, Change Management, adoption, and culture; 17, Human AI interaction and product design; 18, Agentic AI and autonomous systems governance; 19, Sustainability and geopolitics; and 20, Board reporting, disclosure, and Fiduciary duty. Katie Robbert: I just heard a whole lot of new job opportunities listed. So, if someone were working in a regulated industry like pharma, these are the 20 things they would need to be aware of before evaluating generative AI. It is interesting that organizational behavior and change management are part of it. You would think the regulations would be more technical versus human, but I am surprised that is part of it. Christopher S. Penn: It makes sense because in order for any AI to succeed in an enterprise with 50,000 or 300,000 employees, you have to prioritize change management. Organizational behavior cannot be an add-on; they have to be baked into what you do from the beginning, otherwise your initiative is going nowhere. Katie Robbert: I don’t disagree, but the typical way that works in a large organization is top-down. They make a decision, and you walk in the next day to find it has automatically updated your computer settings. Now you can no longer use a web browser search; you have to use Microsoft Copilot. That is their version of change management, but it is really just a dictatorship from above. I am interested in future episodes to explore what that should look like in a regulatory environment. Christopher S. Penn: We have known for two years that adoption is the hardest part. Deployment is easy compared to adoption. You can put Copilot on someone's desk, but they may not use it even if you tell them they have to. It comes back to how you get them to see the benefits. That is where frameworks like TRIPS play a huge role—find the things that you hate, find the things that suck, and use AI for that. Get that one thing off your plate. Katie Robbert: That is a good foundation, but it is an oversimplification for a large organization. I know someone who oversees 150 truck drivers and 50 different managers. The layers are so deep. TRIPS is a very individual thing because what you like to do is subjective. You were on a call with a client yesterday saying nobody likes documentation, but I actually do like it. My scoring would look different than yours. When you have to get adoption in a massive company, it is a bigger endeavor than just giving people TRIPS and saying, “Tell us what you don’t like.” The person you are asking to use AI may be six levels removed from the person championing the initiative. Christopher S. Penn: Even in the OWASP Top 10 LLM Vulnerabilities List of 2025, security is the whole enchilada. Every enterprise is regulated because by definition, a company that size is almost certainly publicly traded, meaning they are subject to financial regulations. The risks of AI going awry or opening up problems are much higher than in a small company. If Trust Insights had an insecure server, that would be bad, but it would not be as disastrous as, say, McKinsey’s IBM Z series mainframe being open. Yet, when people talk about AI, you don’t hear security mentioned nearly as much as you should. Katie Robbert: It is true. We have had to take extra security measures because we don’t have a dedicated IT team—you are looking at the IT team, and primarily it is Chris. We don’t have any wiggle room to set things up haphazardly. We have to do it right from the start. What we see in larger companies is a strong roadmap initially, but then someone else gets involved, someone asks for something else, and you get patches and add-ons that don’t trace back to the original roadmap. By the end, you are wondering what the original goal was. The bigger the organization gets, the harder it is to maintain control. It becomes a snowball effect. Christopher S. Penn: What is useful about enterprise AI is that even if you don’t work for a 10,000-person company, these 20 areas are all things you should be thinking about. Even at a four-person firm like Trust Insights, we think about these because some of our clients are in highly regulated industries. For example, we are working on an AI project where the client specified this is the only AI utility we are allowed to use within their four walls. Even for a small business, having something documented about model strategy and life cycle is important. As of the day we are recording this, Google Gemini 3.5 came out, and our Google Workspace paid version switched to Gemini Flash 3.5. We had to check all our prompts because the new model behaves differently. Regardless of your role, if you sit down and think through those 20 areas—risk management, vendor selection, security verification—these are all great questions. Katie Robbert: There is a good starting place for this. You can find our downloads at TrustInsights.ai/StrategicToolkit. There is also a free version at TrustInsights.ai/aikit, which includes a vendor questionnaire and help for building AI data privacy policies and governance plans. We have already templated these things out. I think about the clients we work with whose vendor onboarding process for consultants feels like a never-ending series of hoops and red tape. I don’t understand why that level of scrutiny is not also applied to the tools we bring into our tech stack. We are renting space in those tools and freely giving them our data. Those companies now have our data and will use it for their own benefit. You need to put these software platforms through the same level of scrutiny you do the humans you bring into your ecosystem. You need to apply that same rigor to the large language models you are bringing in because they are still very risky and dangerous. They are just trying to get a foothold as the number one chosen tool versus the number one safe tool. Christopher S. Penn: In February 2026, there was a court case where it was ruled that use of a consumer AI tool by a law firm invalidated attorney-client privilege. The judge ruled that this is no longer privileged information. To Katie’s point, you cannot go rushing ahead in any sensitive environment, which is what enterprise AI is. You have to be doing your homework.

This chapter looks at the impact of the entire property life cycle— from concept to retirement—on the corporate portfolio. At both the property and portfolio levels, the real estate life cycle generally runs from acquisition through the length of its holding period to the disposition of space at the end of its economic usefulness (including remediation if necessary).
Ever wondered what really happens between a writer's first flash of inspiration and the moment a book lands in your hands? In this episode, Matthew Harffy and Justin Hill pull back the curtain on the entire journey of getting a book published, and they don't hold back.With nearly 40 published books between them, across traditional publishing, self-publishing, and everything in between, Matthew and Justin walk through every stage of the process: the creative spark (and what happens when inspiration doesn't show up on schedule), the research rabbit holes, the difference between pantsers and plotters, pitching to agents and editors, navigating advances and royalties, structural edits vs. copy edits, cover design battles (stirrups in the wrong century!), title negotiations, publication day anticlimax, translation deals, and the bittersweet moment your book ends up remaindered — or spotted in a second-hand shop.They also dig into the financial realities of publishing that most authors don't talk about openly: what advances actually mean, why earning out matters more than a big payday, what the Society of Authors can do for you, and how PLR and ALCS quietly supplement an author's income year after year.Whether you're an aspiring writer, a published author, or simply a passionate reader curious about how the books you love are made, this is a conversation packed with insight, honesty, and the occasional laugh.Support the show and unlock exclusive bonus episodes on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/cw/RockPaperSwordsPodcastFind us everywhere: https://linktr.ee/RockPaperSwords
Organizations invest a significant amount of time and resources conducting major RFPs, renegotiations, and technology transformations. The project delivers meaningful improvements on deal commercials, cost reductions and operational gains. However, once the deal is done and everyone goes back to their "day jobs", a surprising amount of the value starts to slip away. In this 10-minute episode of Staying Connected, Tony Mangino is joined by TC2's Julie Gardner to discuss how disciplined lifecycle services can preserve deal value between major sourcing events.

Are your facilities a tool for the Gospel or a burden on your budget? In this episode, Renée and Anthony sit down with Matt Messier, head of the Mission Property Group at Foundry Commercial. With experience assisting over 3,000 churches, Matt shares how ministry leaders can stop playing defense against maintenance costs and start playing offense for the Kingdom. The Reality Check: Buildings as Tools vs. Burdens Many ministry leaders are currently facing a "vicious cycle" where building maintenance drains the resources needed for actual ministry. The Gut Punch: According to Matt, some denominations report that 80% of their churches are one major capital improvement away from closing. The Shift: Since 2008, and accelerated by 2020, the real estate overhead of running a church has grown significantly and left many churches in risky positions. The Warning: If you are barely making your budget but putting nothing away for capital improvements (like a $200,000 roof), you aren't actually making your budget. Navigating the Emotional Weight of Property Transition Property is rarely just brick and mortar. It represents the history of those in your care—marriages, funerals, and family milestones. Acknowledge the Grief: Moving or selling can feel like a failure to those whose families helped build the space. Reframe: Remember that the churches Paul planted no longer exist in their original locations; the church is not dying, it is simply taking a different form. Practice Empathy: allow people to talk about their experiences and the unexpressed love they have for the space, and remember that this attachment comes not from how great the building is itself, but the community that the building has fostered. "The kingdom is never in trouble. The guy running it knows what he's doing." — Matt Messier The "First Button" Principle Matt shares a philosophy for any leadership team feeling stuck: "If you get the first button on your shirt right, the rest of the buttons will fall in place". The First Button is Mission: You cannot build a real estate strategy until you know what God is calling your ministry to do. The Filter: Every property decision must be looked at through the lens of mission and ministry. The Goal: Stewardship is about building the Kingdom by understanding how to leverage your real estate, not just selling off buildings. Innovative Stewardship: Thinking Outside the Box Don't assume your only options are "stay and decay" or "sell and close." Consider these creative approaches discussed in the episode: Leasing for Revenue: One church leased its underutilized education wing to a school for $8,000 a month, which funded repairs and provided consistent income. Long-term Land Leases: Another church used a 40 year lease to host an assisted living facility on their land, allowing them to minister to the residents while retaining the property. Selling Land to Fund Vision: A church sold acreage to a special needs charter school, which allowed them to pay off debt and created a new pathway for their members to serve those families. The Power of Relocation: A Methodist church sold a building for $6 million and moved into a rented retail space near a university, planting two more churches within years because they prioritized mission over bricks. The Life Cycle of a Ministry
Endava set out to reinvent how IT services get delivered in an AI-native world. Dava.X.AI is the group inside Endava driving that shift. Miro is the workspace they're building it on. Together they've shipped Davaflow — an AI engagement lifecycle that runs from signal to explore to govern to evolve, with humans and agents working alongside each other the whole way. On the latest drunkenPM Radio, Matt Cloke (CTO, Endava), Joe Dunleavy (Global Head of Dava.X.AI), and Dave Ross (Evangelist at Miro) talk about how the three came together, what real partnership looks like when two roadmaps quietly merge into one journey, and what it took to actually make it work. Full episode is live. Takeaways - Reframe from value capture to value creation — don't use AI to make existing processes 10–15% better, reimagine the work entirely from an AI-first perspective. - IT services hit its "ChatGPT moment" two years ago when clients and analysts started asking Endava why they were needed if AI could just write the code. - AI is becoming a method, not a tool — just as Agile organized humans to do work, this new method organizes agents and the people working alongside them. - The technology question is largely settled; the change management question isn't — quality has hit the inflection point, and what remains is the human shift, much like Waterfall-to-Agile. - DavaFlow runs in four phases — Signal, Explore, Govern, and Evolve — moving from identifying the right problem, through virtual personas and prototypes, to governing agent output, to evolving in production. - Chat is the wrong interface for most of this work — humans are visual creatures, and tools like Miro give LLMs context that a chat box never could. - AI-driven work can produce better traceability than humans ever did — every decision and prototype connects back through the chain of thought, what Joe called "traceability on steroids." - Anyone can buy the tools — what separates enterprise work from vibe-coding chaos is policy-as-code, defined skills, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints. - Adoption happens in baby steps, not the full vision — showing people the end of the journey overwhelms them, so start at signal and layer in each next step. - The hardest part is the identity question — engineers liked writing code and designers liked crafting prototypes, and the shift is a growth-mindset problem, not a skills problem.

Review Guide: The Grand FinaleMastering Contract Law: The Six-Step Diagnostic Circuit ExplainedThis episode provides a clear, structured approach to understanding and analyzing contracts, ideal for law students, bar takers, and legal professionals. It emphasizes a systematic framework, using a real-world case study, to decode complex legal issues and master contract law essentials.Most commercial deals hinge on delicate questions of agreement, intent, and performance—mistakes here can cost millions or derail entire industries. If you've ever struggled to decode complex contract rules or wondered how to approach them systematically, this episode is your ultimate guide. We reveal the secret blueprint— the six-step contractual circuit—that turns chaos into clarity, whether you're cracking a bar exam, advising a client, or stepping into the courtroom.Through a deep dive into real-world scenarios and landmark cases—like the famous Lucy v. Zimmer farm sale or the Battle of the Forms— you'll discover the precise steps to identify, analyze, and resolve any contractual dispute. We break down how the law interprets human intent objectively, the strategic role of the statute of frauds, and the fine line between void and voidable contracts. Plus, get insider insight into the UCC's revolutionary approach to offer, acceptance, and breach, transforming the way commercial transactions evolve in an age of mass automation and blockchain.Why does it matter? Because ignoring these principles risks catastrophic misunderstandings, lost deals, or costly litigation. Mastering this framework arms you with the confidence to navigate the complex landscape of contracts, ensuring you see every issue before it becomes a problem—and that you know exactly how the law will respond. Whether you're preparing for exams, closing major deals, or simply sharpening your legal intuition, this episode offers the clarity and mastery you need.Join us to explore how each facet of contract law fits into the elegant, universal system that governs nearly every exchange of goods and promises. By the end, you'll walk away with a powerful, structured lens for analyzing any contractual fact pattern—ready to outsmart the most tangled legal puzzles with confidence and precision.Key topics:The six-step contractual circuit: formation, defenses, interpretation, performance, breach, remediesImportance of legal universes: common law vs. UCC and their influence on contract rulesCritical doctrines: offer and acceptance, the mirror image rule, and the Battle of the FormsHow to analyze defenses: statute of frauds, capacity, duress, misrepresentation, mutual mistakeInterpreting ambiguous contract terms using hierarchy of evidencePerformance standards: substantial performance under common law, perfect tender rule under UCCRemedies for breach: expectation damages, reliance, restitution, and equitable relief like specific performanceThe evolving role of technology: smart contracts and blockchain—future implications for traditional doctrines
his episode looks at where Q10 fits in the broader quality landscape, including its roots in ISO 9001, ISO 9004, and ISO 13485, while making the key distinction that Q10 is not a certifiable ISO-style standard. Instead, Q10 is designed to augment regional GMPs and provide a lifecycle model for managing pharmaceutical quality.Using the Annex 2 PQS diagram, Subhi walks through how Q10 applies across pharmaceutical development, technology transfer, commercial manufacturing, and product discontinuation. The episode discusses phase-appropriate GMP expectations, why Q10 does not replace GMP, and how management responsibility spans the full lifecycle, including outsourced activities and purchased materials.The episode also covers the four core PQS elements: process performance and product quality monitoring, CAPA, change management, and management review. These elements are presented as operational loops that help maintain control and drive improvement. Subhi also highlights the two key enablers of the model: knowledge management, connected to ICH Q8, and quality risk management, connected to ICH Q9.The episode closes with Section 4 of Q10, which focuses on continual improvement of the PQS itself, including management review inputs, external changes, resourcing, documentation, and communication.00:00 Welcome and Series Setup00:14 Why ICH Q10 Matters01:21 Lifecycle and Phase-Appropriate GMP02:23 GMP Foundation and the PQS Model02:58 Management Responsibility03:31 Core PQS Elements04:26 Enablers: Knowledge Management and QRM04:40 Guideline Walkthrough: Sections 1 to 306:37 Continual Improvement of the PQS07:45 Wrap Up and Next EpisodeSubhi Saadeh is the Founder and Principal at Let's Combinate, where he helps teams develop and control drug-device combination products by aligning quality systems, development, and regulatory expectations across drug and device domains.

In this episode, Cambria Allen-Ratzlaff, Interim CEO of the PRI, is joined by Michael Benedict Yamoah (Vice President, Stewardship Director, EOS at Federated Hermes), Chris Jurgens (Senior Director, Omidyar Network), and Oumou Ly (Non-resident Research Fellow, UC Berkeley Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity) to explore how investors should respond to AI.Building on Part 1, this episode moves from theory to practice, outlining how investors can assess AI governance, identify risks across portfolios, and begin engaging with companies in a fast-moving and uncertain landscape.Overview:AI is already reshaping portfolios, but most investors are still early in understanding how to manage the risks. This episode focuses on practical steps, from governance and engagement to tools, research, frameworks and real-world examples of leading practice.A key message is that there is no perfect framework yet. Instead, investors must start now, build capability over time, and engage continuously as the technology evolves.Detailed coverage:What good AI governance looks likeAt a minimum, companies must comply with regulation and establish clear internal policies. Strong governance goes further, embedding AI into enterprise risk management, assigning board-level responsibility, and ensuring oversight across the organisation.Beyond compliance: lifecycle thinkingInvestors are encouraged to assess the full lifecycle of AI systems, from development and deployment to real-world impacts, liabilities and societal consequences.AI risk is dynamicUnlike other technologies, AI systems evolve post-deployment. This requires continuous monitoring, disclosure and adaptation, rather than one-off assessments.Examples of leading practiceCompanies such as Anthropic and Microsoft are highlighted for transparency, investor engagement and responsible AI frameworks. Across the ecosystem, progress is being driven by collaboration between companies, investors and policymakers.The importance of infrastructure and ecosystemsAI is not just about software, it spans chips, data centres and energy systems. Managing its risks requires coordination across the full value chain.Practical starting points for investorsInvestors should map where AI sits in their portfolios, identify key use cases, and assess associated risks such as cybersecurity, compliance and liability.Tools, frameworks and collaborationA growing ecosystem of resources, from investor coalitions to research frameworks, is emerging to support engagement and analysis.A marathon, not a sprintAI governance is an ongoing process. Investors must build long-term capability, stay engaged in dialogue, and avoid waiting for perfect solutions before acting.Start now, signal intentEven simple engagement, asking basic governance questions, can send a strong signal to companies that responsible AI matters.Chapters:00:08 - Introduction: from AI risk to investor action01:00 - What good AI governance looks like03:05 - Internal policies, risk management and board oversight05:00 - Lifecycle thinking and real-world impacts08:17 - Examples of leading practice in AI governance10:30 - Defining and understanding AI risk13:15 - Mapping AI use cases across portfolios15:39 - Practical tools and investor resources19:44 - Why AI is a marathon, not a sprint22:24 - Final takeaways: start now and engageFurther reading: Anthropic labor market impacts, Microsoft transparency reportDisclaimer:This podcast and material referenced herein is provided for information only.

Ever wonder where those viral packaged foods and beverages go once the hype dies? Welcome to the grocery aftermarket…and it's thriving partly because the TikTok “Bullwhip Effect” is seemingly in overdrive. And that virality can trigger thousands of orders in hours, causing CPG brands to rush (now inflated) production runs. Although by the time the inventory hits warehouses and retail shelves, the internet has moved on. In fact, almost three out of every four Gen Z and Millennial shoppers report “buyer's remorse within six months of trend-driven purchases.” This consumer "cooling" leads to a rapid drop in retail velocity…thus forcing CPG brands and grocery retailers to clear remaining stock through secondary liquidators like TJ Maxx or Ollie's Bargain Outlet. Obviously, seeing those premium, organic, and/or functional products for like 75% off can ruin brand equity…but I'd argue overall categorical value perceptions can be impaired when certain product subcategories (especially nascent ones) flood aftermarket retailers. Regardless, which CPG brand have you surprisingly seen in the “discard” bins lately?

In this episode of the Omnichannel Marketer, host Kait Stephens interviews Jared Grawrock, Head of Lifecycle & Retention Marketing at goodr.Jared shares his journey from dabbling in early social media and email marketing to leading retention strategy at one of the most beloved sunglass brands in the country. He discusses what it truly means to be "customer obsessed," how goodr balances DTC and omnichannel growth, and why building deep brand loyalty from day one is the single most powerful growth lever a brand can have.The conversation dives into how goodr uses data, AI, and a relentless focus on the "why" behind customer behavior to build lifecycle programs that actually resonate, and why word-of-mouth still reigns as their number one acquisition channel after a decade in business.TAKEAWAYS:Good lifecycle and retention marketing starts with asking "why" – why did they buy, why did they come back, and why does one cohort outperform another.Retention and acquisition are not competing priorities; they are complementary levers that must be balanced together.goodr actively embraces omnichannel growth, building strategies to serve customers wherever they want to shop, whether DTC, Amazon, or retail partners like REI.Using Brij inserts in Amazon orders has been a key tactic for identifying anonymous customers and bringing them into goodr's owned ecosystem.The brand's highest-retention cohort traces back to its earliest days, when the CEO handed out sunglasses from the trunk of his car. Word-of-mouth remains goodr's number one acquisition channel, even after ten years of growth across paid and owned channels.AI is accelerating Jared's ability to analyze data and surface insights, including parsing nearly 10,000 open-ended loyalty survey responses in a fraction of the time.AI will improve product recommendations and shorten the consideration phase, but it cannot replicate the emotional experience of a purchase that just feels right.SMS is one of the most underrated lifecycle channels: powerful when done right, but easy to get wrong.The biggest mistake brands make in retention is treating customers as generic segments.Where to find Jared Grawrock:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jared-grawrock-57124a7/ Website: https://goodr.com/Where to find Kait Stephens:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kait-margraf-stephens/Website: www.brij.itSUBSCRIBE TO THE OMNICHANNEL MARKETERwww.theomnichannelmarketer.com

In the depths of the ocean lives a creature that can technically live forever by rewinding its own biological clock. By transforming from a mature adult back into a polyp, the immortal jellyfish bypasses the natural end of life, starting its journey over again and again. Join us as we uncover how this unique survival mechanism works and why it remains one of the greatest mysteries of marine biology.
Faith is not just something to have, it is something that must be expressed. In this message, we are shown that faith begins where the will of God is known, but it does not stop there—it must be expressed and carried through with endurance. True faith is not passive; it moves outward in expression and forward in endurance.The sermon emphasizes that faith must find expression through our speaking, acting and diligence. It highlights that while faith may be ‘invisible' in its origin, it is not invisible in its outworking. For faith to function effectively, there must be agreement with God's word, and a willingness to stay committed, even when the desired outcome is yet to be seen.Ultimately, this message presents faith as a process that leads to manifestation. While God gives the increase, our responsibility is to act in obedience and be diligent. The journey of faith is completed not just in our believing, but in enduring until what has been promised becomes a reality.

Description Apptivate hosts and Remerge team members, Patrick Eichmann and Taylor Lobdell, sit down to discuss the outlook for mobile marketing in 2026 and the shifts shaping the industry. The conversation covers the move toward probabilistic attribution, the growing role of AI in campaign execution, and how advertisers are adapting to signal loss. They explore why retargeting strategies are becoming simpler and more holistic, where teams still fall short in testing and budget allocation, and how growth organizations are reorganizing around the full user lifecycle rather than channel silos. Patrick and Taylor also examine what defines a strong DSP partner today, along with how automation, CTV, and consolidation are influencing the future of programmatic advertising. Questions addressed in this episode How is mobile advertising changing in 2026? What does the shift from deterministic to probabilistic attribution mean in practice? Is iOS retargeting still viable? What mistakes are advertisers making with testing and budget allocation? Why should UA and retargeting be treated as one system? How are growth teams restructuring around lifecycle marketing? What should marketers look for in a DSP partner? What optimizations should be happening behind the scenes in programmatic? How will automation, AI, and CTV shape the next phase of mobile growth?

Kaela Kucera, Director of Outbound Sales at Dynamic Lifecycle Innovations, joined Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green for an ITAD-focused discussion on sustainability, data security, and the growing importance of full lifecycle IT management. Dynamic Lifecycle Innovations provides both IT asset disposition (ITAD) and electronics recycling services for B2B organizations, with facilities in Wisconsin, Virginia, and Tennessee. The company manages the complete lifecycle of retired IT assets—from intake and asset tracking to data wiping, testing, refurbishment, resale, or responsible recycling. A key focus is ensuring that electronics are kept out of landfills whenever possible while maintaining strict data security standards. Kucera emphasized that extending the life of IT equipment is central to both sustainability and value creation. “Our number one focus is really buying refurbished instead of new—finding ways to put equipment back into the market wherever possible,” she explained. Through global downstream channels, Dynamic identifies secondary markets where older equipment still holds value, including international buyers and educational use cases. Devices that can be refurbished are repaired and resold, while non-resalable equipment is processed through an advanced in-house shredding and material recovery system that separates components for reuse in raw material supply chains. Data security is tightly integrated into every step of the process. All devices are either fully sanitized using automated software or physically destroyed if wiping is not possible. With all services handled in-house, Dynamic ensures a secure chain of custody from receipt to final disposition, reducing risk and eliminating gaps that can occur with third-party handoffs. Kucera also highlighted the company's culture and mission-driven approach, noting that sustainability, customer trust, and internal values are closely connected. By combining ITAD, resale, and recycling under one umbrella, Dynamic enables organizations to responsibly manage retired IT assets while unlocking additional value and minimizing environmental impact. Their ultimate goal is giving electronics their next best life. Learn more: https://thinkdynamic.com/
ICH Q6 Explained: Specifications, Control Strategy, and What's Changing in Q6(R1)In this episode of Let's ComBinate, Subhi continues the ICH Q-series with ICH Q6 and explains why specifications are central to defining and controlling drug products and drug-device combination products.He breaks down how ICH Q6 formalizes: • what to test (attributes or CQAs tied to safety and efficacy) • how to test (methods and procedures) • what is acceptable (acceptance criteria or limits)All of which come together to support the release decision.He also covers the difference between ICH Q6A (small molecules) and ICH Q6B (biologics), highlighting the increased variability in biologics and the greater reliance on characterization and process understanding.Finally, he summarizes key themes from the 2024 ICH Q6(R1) concept paper, including: • alignment of shared principles across Q6A and Q6B • expanded scope to include new modalities and combination products • linkage to ICH Q12 lifecycle management and established conditions • a shift toward more science and risk based approaches with less reliance on routine batch testing⸻Key References • ICH Q6 Guidelines (Q6A and Q6B):https://www.ich.org/page/quality-guidelines • ICH Q6(R1) Concept Paper (2024):https://www.ich.org/page/quality-guidelines (navigate to Q6 revision concept paper)⸻Timestamps00:00 Intro to ICH Q600:36 Host background01:05 Why specifications matter01:49 Q6A vs Q6B overview02:33 Purpose of ICH Q602:59 What is a specification04:27 Q6 R1 update themes05:49 Lifecycle and risk based specifications06:29 Wrap up and next stepsSubhi Saadeh is the Founder and Principal at Let's Combinate, where he helps teams develop and control drug-device combination products by aligning quality systems, development, and regulatory expectations across drug and device domains.

What is up fraud fighters, and welcome to Fraud Forward!This is one of those conversations every fraud, risk, payments, and operations leader should hear.We spend a lot of time talking about fraud losses, scam trends, and faster payments. What we do not always unpack is where the real breakdown happens in the payment journey. Does it start at onboarding? Does it show up in authentication? Is speed the issue? Is recovery the problem? Or are institutions still misreading what payment controls are actually designed to do?In this episode, I sit down with Kyle Caldwell from The Clearing House to unpack payments fraud prevention the way teams actually experience it in the real world:Before a payment startsDuring payment initiationAfter the funds are sentBecause once the money moves, everything changes.That is the core message of this episode. Payments fraud prevention is not only about the rail. It is about the full lifecycle.Kyle brings a practical perspective to one of the biggest myths in our space. Faster payments are not automatically the cause of more fraud. In many cases, the payment itself is just the final stage of a much earlier breakdown involving identity, compromise, or weak controls.If you work in community banking fraud prevention, credit union fraud prevention, or broader fraud operations strategy, this episode gives you a more useful way to think about risk, controls, and response in a real-time environment.What you'll hear in this episodeWhy payments fraud prevention needs to begin long before the payment railHow institutions often confuse rail risk with customer compromiseWhere RTP fraud prevention differs from ACH fraud recovery and wire fraud recoveryWhich payment initiation fraud controls exist in real-time payments that many teams overlookHow indemnity and recovery work in the RTP environmentWhy real time decisioning matters more than relying on investigation after the factWhere firms are overbuilt on detection but underprepared on preventionWhy collaboration across institutions still mattersWhat fraud leaders should be planning for as payment lifecycle fraud evolves in 2026You should listen to this episode if youLead fraud, risk, payments, or operations at a financial institutionAre reviewing RTP fraud prevention or strengthening instant payments fraud controlsWant to improve fraud prevention before payment initiationNeed a better approach to post payment fraud recoveryAre building a stronger financial institution fraud strategyWant practical insight from The Clearing House perspectiveIf this episode gave you something useful, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with another fraud fighter.
