    In today's podcast, Kevin Van Dyk, Managing Director at BULLWEALTH, speaks with Adam Burns, Vice President of Investments at Fulcra Asset Management, to explore the firm's distinctive approach to fixed income investing. Adam explains how Fulcra, founded in 2009, applies a bottom-up process that evaluates companies across the capital structure—from senior secured loans to subordinated debt. He highlights how Fulcra differentiates itself from traditional fixed income managers by avoiding index constraints, instead targeting mispriced securities in small to mid-sized North American companies. Adam also discusses Fulcra's barbell strategy, combining government and investment-grade securities with tactical and special situation opportunities to enhance yield, while managing risk. Finally, Adam outlines how the investment team leverages due diligence, credit rating arbitrage, and event-driven strategies such as merger arbitrage to identify value and drive both income and capital appreciation for investors.

In the coming weeks we have some terrific conversations that are both fun and inspiring. They are going to include thought provoking futurists, AI technology mavens, retailers, international hotel design executives as well as designers and architects of brand experience places.We talk with authors and people focused on wellness and sustainable design practices as well as neuroscientists who will continue to help us look at the built environment and the connections between our mind-body and the built world around us.We'll also have guests who are creative marketing masters from international brands and people who have started and grown some of the companies that are striking a new path for us follow.The NXTLVL Experience Design podcast is grateful for the support of VMSD magazine.VMSD brings us, in the brand experience world, the International Retail Design Conference. The IRDC is one of the best retail design conferences that there is bringing together the world of retailers, brands and experience place makers every year for two days of engaging conversations and pushing us to keep on talking about what makes retailing relevant. You will find the archive of the NXTLVL Experience Design podcast on VMSD.com.Thanks also goes to Shop Association the only global retail trade association dedicated to elevating the in-store experience.SHOP Association represents companies and affiliates from 25 countries and brings value to their members through research, networking, education, events and awards. Check then out on SHOPAssociation.org Today, EPISODE 81… I talk with Christian Davies. We actually recorded this discussion months ago and Christian wondered if publishing it now was still relevant.I assured him it was, since Christian tends to unearth issues that are future forward - things to be mindful about should we want to address the issues we all face as individuals or societies or as architects and designers making places and things as we serve as our clients creative sherpa guides bringing ideas into the built world. Now… Christian has been sitting atop the heap of 80 conversations as the most listened to episode since we recorded our first talk a couple years ago. So, I thought, well why not do Christian Davies 2.0?Christian does not disappoint - never has – over a couple of decades, Christian has consistently drawn audiences and colleagues into conversation, sometimes challenging, and always brilliant and things that drive design thinking. His matter-of-fact English attitude to the world of design is sometimes a ‘no holds barred' reality check that makes you think twice about the truths you have held dear. His drive towards excellence is irrepressible. That makes him, some may say, demanding because I think he expects that we all give a damn about what we are brining into the world. And why not? We all share space on this little blue dot and, we had better get it, and soon, that we are part of a vast ecosystem of interdependencies.We cover a lot of ground in this open-ended conversation – I'd not expect less from Christian - And here is a few thoughts on subject areas we touch on…1. Entropy:Entropy is a scientific measure of disorder, randomness.Astrophysicist and other cosmologists have postulated that our universe is continuing to expand to a maximum state of entropy from a moment in time, the beginning of the Universe that they have called The Big Bang.There's lots of great content that you can certainly dig up on what happens when the universe finally expands to maximum entropy and all particles are spread out evenly within the unimaginably large space of the universe. It's suggested that of course this maximun expansion will take something like 10 to the 36 or 37 power years in other words trillions and trillions of years. A very very long time….But for now, the way I try to think of it is things will expand and eventually slow down as they all spread out to be evenly distributed throughout the universe… seems reasonable…It's kind of like imagining the initial moments after a massive explosion. Things spread out pretty quickly from the epicenter of the explosion and as they're flung far and wide, particles eventually slow and if you think of it in terms of entropy they all reach maximum randomness.I kind of think that right now, today, considering that the scientists think that the universe has only been around for 14 1/2 billion years or so, that we're kind of right at that very beginning stage of the explosion and things are moving faster and faster away from the epicenter of The Big Bang. This is interesting if you think that the universe will continue to be expanding for a few trillion years so right now yeah, we're kind of sort of in the one second after the explosion time frame. Anyway I am not an astrophysicist and some of these enormous ideas still leave me scratching my head…If we look at today, and everything around us, it certainly seems that things are speeding up and becoming more distributed, more random.I know I've talked about the whole idea of the pace of change in a number of episodes but I find this really interesting because, as I discussed with Christian, it's really hard to design into a future state when you consider that the sands beneath your feet are always shifting.How do we know which step is the right one? How do you know when we step on solid ground or drop forever into a bottomless void…I think the challenge here for designers is that, at least for a time, we need to have a sense of stability and order. The challenge is, I think, is that we're moving to an increasing rate of change where stability and order might be elusive to say the least.2. Moments of human connection make experiences great:I think as we speed along and never ending sea of change perhaps one of the things that we can hang on to, a stake in the ground if you will, will continue to be our ability to maintain our relationships.Change has a funny way of, well… changing people. And, one of our jobs will be to keep up with changing expectations of brands and their customers. One thing is sure, as we scream along this ever changing path, relationships will remain as one of the fundamental qualities of great experiences. Both brand experience architecture and the means with which we engage with brands will change to meet evolving expecations but, my expectation, (or maybe it's just my hope) is that humans still stay at the center of it all - Since at least for this short little time that humans have been in existence, we have relied on the empathic connection between individuals to help create meaning and connection to the world around us as well as the things well as the things we simply buy.And I, like Christian, believe that in the end, when you look at successful projects in our long design careers, the good ones, I mean the really good ones, we're not just because we received a great brief with an inspired client who had a vision of changing up the world,but that the teams we were connected to both on the consultant and client sides were also great. There was something that clicked. There was a gel in communication, respect and collaboration that drove these projects forward.Some may have heard me say before projects will come and go but the relationships are really what make the work great. I'd rather lose a project than trash the relationships…3. Three things that facilitate success stories in the world of retail place-making:So, if you're going to look at success stories over a career full of projects, when you look back at what really made them great was, of course that they were successful from a financial point of view, that they drove increase customers and deeper brand relationships and better revenues all those things are important indicators of success but that there are things that are required to make all of that happen. One would be that there's a big idea someone at the helm of a brand or business that has a thought about doing something different breaking out of a traditional way of bringing goods or services to market, of serving a customer in a different way and technology is often being a facilitator of that.There was coffee long before Starbucks. There was getting from A to B lby horse, camel, richshaw, long before Uber. There were places to stay along the Silk Road before Airbnb. And if you had a shaman in your village you could likely find out where you ame from and where your future was going to be long before there were anything like 23&Me or ancestry.com. In some ways the goods or services have not really changed. How we get them in the hands of customers has changed and that has often been facilitated with new technologies.4. AI – as a new tool for ideation and the ‘why' behind design:One of those technological advances of course that everybody is talking about these days is artificial intelligence.AI it's both causing a lot of excitement about what it sees has to offer in the short term, becoming a new tool in the architect and designers toolbox for ideation as well as causing a lot of concern about what happens to humankind when we finally get to general AI or super artificial intelligence.I am both excited and increasingly aware of influences that it will have on the job market, delivery of goods and services and other parts of the ecosystem like education and manufacturing etcetera etcetera.But if we just for a moment set some of the anxieties aside and simply look at as a tool for imagination and engagement with clients fostering the collaborative process of ideation, it has extraordinary potential to change the game of how we designers and architects work with our clients and create ideas about bringing their goods and services to market.There's a lot of opportunity and uncertainty about what happens when you turbocharge the creative process with AI tools.In the end though, at least for now, the question remains - is that there is a human at the helm of prompt curation?The output is only as good as the input that I'm able to suggest as a prompt. If not… garbage in – garbage out.This of course is interesting because it puts the initial burden still on people to be able to articulate their vision in language and use AI tools to refine the visualizations and other content that emerges from using them.As we use these tools they make things faster but I also sometimes wonder about whether they simply make us lazy and remove our thinking from the process.So Christian does talk about the idea of the drawings or images being very compelling but also needing to ask, and answer, the question of ‘why this particular approach or output is relevant and connected to the brand or customer that we're trying to serve?In the end it's not about the ‘what' of things that make solutions to design challenges great but more and more about the ‘why' you're doing certain things.It's about the process by which you got to the solution rather than simply the solution itself.Don't get me wrong the solutions to the challenges are sometimes very satisfying but what I'm ultimately interested in is the thinking process that led you to along this pathway… it's the journey not just the destination that's important in the creative process….And I think it's ever more important to our clients in the design world that they're looking for people who are not just production oriented but who are also focused on guiding them through an uncertain future5. B-Corporations:And this in a way leads us to the part of our my discussion with Christian about how his company Bergmeyer has recently become a B-Corp.A B-Corporation is a for profit company, but it is certified by the non-profit  B Lab Global and the whole idea is that it seeks to meet high standards for social and environmental performance and accountability and even more so transparency in the ways that they are doing business in support of being good stewards of our environment.In the changing sands that we're all standing on, as entropy increases and uncertainty continues to unfold in front of us, there is certainty that our planet is also in peril as climate change continues to wreak havoc on environmental systems. These B-corporations are seen as a force for good who work to balance profit with a commitment to both people and our planet. What differentiates them from other traditional companies is that they prioritize the social and environmental impacts of their business while at the same time not discounting the fact that they still are in business - that they are accountable to stakeholders as well as shareholders.The stakeholders can be considered as all of us because as companies continue to pull resources out of the ground and push the byproducts of industrialization into landfills and oceans all of our lives are at stake.All right then that's a not so brief summary of some of the ideas that Christian and I riff on in our conversation…Let's dig into some of the details…ABOUT DAVID KEPRON:LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/david-kepron-9a1582bWebsites: https://www.davidkepron.com    (personal website)vmsd.com/taxonomy/term/8645  (Blog)Email: david.kepron@NXTLVLexperiencedesign.comTwitter: DavidKepronPersonal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidkepron/NXTLVL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nxtlvl_experience_design/Bio:David Kepron is a multifaceted creative professional with a deep curiosity to understand ‘why', ‘what's now' and ‘what's next'.

    Synopsis: Host Rahul Chaturvedi sits down with Geoffrey Duyk, Chief Executive Officer of Grove Biopharma, for a wide-ranging conversation on navigating today's biotech macro headwinds and building companies that can translate breakthrough science into real patient impact. Dr. Duyk traces his journey from Harvard/Millennium/Exelixis operator to TPG investor and back to company creation, explaining how board dynamics, capital cycles, and policy shifts shape execution. They dig into why this cycle feels uniquely tough—patent cliffs, reimbursement uncertainty, NIH pressures—and who funds innovation in the meantime. Duyk outlines root causes of R&D inefficiency (misaligned capital vs. 20-year timelines, shaky preclinical predictability, costly trials, underused real-world data) and makes the case for rebuilding public trust and STEM education. Then, a deep dive on Grove Biopharma: precision polymer science that creates antibody-like, fully synthetic, cell-permeable protein mimetics to tackle historically “intractable” intracellular protein–protein interactions. Duyk shares design principles, why modular/orthogonal chemistry matters, predictable pharmacology, and lessons from fundraising and board management—plus why he's helping grow a Chicago-centered biotech ecosystem. Biography: Geoffrey M. Duyk, M.D., Ph.D. is the Chief Executive Officer of Grove Biopharma. Dr. Duyk has spent 30 years in the biotechnology industry as an entrepreneur, executive, and investor.

    What if the word “wealth” never meant money first? We open up the original meaning—well-being—and use it as a compass for healthier families, stronger decisions, and better outcomes. With James E. Hughes Jr. and Rich Christiansen, we unpack why fortunes dissipate, how culture compounds, and where law and leadership can finally serve the humans between the bank accounts.We dive into the universal proverb of “shirt sleeves to shirt sleeves,” reframing it through entropy and agency: you can't defy the physics, but you can choose when. That choice hinges on adding energy—welcoming new members as contributors, developing elders who steward transitions, and creating rites of passage that embed values at critical ages. We explore joint decision making as the core of social capital, practical ways to honor different learning styles, and the Iroquois model of seven-generation thinking and the chief for peace—wisdom that turns meetings into meaningful governance.Then we get pragmatic. What makes a trust actually work for people? Start with two lines: “This trust is a gift of love. This trust exists to enhance the lives of its beneficiaries.” We discuss Delaware's well-being trust, how to avoid founder-dominated “family offices,” and why every serious office needs a Chief Learning Officer to design experiences, not just deliver reports. Finally, we connect capital and conscience: align investments with values to reduce internal friction and build capability that lasts. If wealth is well-being, money should serve health, wisdom, relationships, and purpose—not the other way around.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with someone building a legacy, and leave a review with one practice you'll adopt this year.

    OxygenCare is delighted to announce the introduction of the Medanets integrated Point of Care Nursing app to its ever-expanding Digital Healthcare solutions portfolio. The collaboration brings together two companies with a shared vision for improving patient care through innovative digital healthcare solutions. Stephen Nicholson, Digital Health Manager, OxygenCare, explains: "Medanets simplifies nursing routines, supports decision making, complements and integrates with EHR systems, and releases time to care for patients.'The CE and MDR certified app was developed in collaboration with healthcare professionals. "OxygenCare is a multi-award-winning, family-owned business with over 50 years supporting healthcare throughout the island of Ireland. "Their dedicated digital health team and prior experience in delivering complex ICU and anaesthesia systems make them an ideal partner for us," says Medanets CEO Juha-Matti Ranta. "On top of that, their deep market knowledge and the impression made by their team further solidified our confidence in this partnership. It seems we are a natural fit in both values and working style." For over 30 years, OxygenCare has been transforming digital healthcare through clinical systems and working with innovative products and solutions throughout Ireland. The Medanets integrated nursing app supports point-of-care documentation and immediate access to key patient data, making it a natural fit with OxygenCare's digital portfolio. Combining OxygenCare's connectivity solutions with Medanets' mobile solutions can provide significant added value both to organisations already using an electronic health record (EHR) and to hospitals beginning their digital journey. "We can offer healthcare providers a fast-track way to modernise operations, even in settings where an EHR is not yet in place. For instance, Medanets supports "lightweight IT" approaches such as sending PDFs directly to a document archive - a direct impactful step forward in digital empowerment," Ranta explains. Maurice Moran, Managing Director of OxygenCare, adds: "This Medanets offering complements our portfolio, and we see strong market potential. Together, we are currently conducting exploratory efforts in the market to identify opportunities and tailor our approach to local needs. Through this new partnership, all care phases can be managed digitally through a single provider. This partnership marks a promising step toward improving healthcare outcomes in Ireland and underscores the strength of collaboration in driving innovation forward." See more stories here.

    Building a High-Performance Workplace Culture: Insights from Matthew Person's “Four I's” MethodologyIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge speaks with Matthew Person, business strategist, M&A advisor, and Founder & Managing Director of Town Square Business Advisors. Matthew shares his framework for building a high-performance workplace culture—one that blends structure with freedom and aligns values with execution. His “Four I's” methodology—Identity, Instruction, Intercommunication, and Information Feedback—helps companies create environments where clarity, collaboration, and accountability thrive.Rethinking Culture: The Four I's FrameworkMatthew Person explains that too many companies try to copy “Best Places to Work” models without understanding what makes their own teams unique. He emphasizes that culture is not about perks or imitation—it's about clarity of purpose and alignment with organizational identity. The first pillar, Identity, defines who you are as a company and why you exist, serving as a foundation for decisions, relationships, and results.The next two pillars, Instruction and Intercommunication, address how organizations operate and communicate. Instruction provides structure—ensuring that processes, roles, and expectations are clear—while intercommunication builds trust by encouraging open, consistent dialogue. When both elements are strong, teams move cohesively, information flows effectively, and leaders can focus on strategy rather than micromanagement.Finally, Information Feedback turns culture into a living, adaptive system. Feedback, Matthew explains, should be consistent, transparent, and actionable—not reserved for annual reviews. Together, the Four I's create what he calls constrained independence—a balance between freedom and boundaries that empowers innovation without chaos. The result is a culture that performs with purpose, resilience, and shared accountability.About Matthew PersonMatthew Person is the Founder and Managing Director of Town Square Business Advisors, where he works with executives and business owners to enhance strategy, leadership, and organizational culture. With decades of experience in mergers, acquisitions, and business growth advisory, Matthew developed the Four I's framework to help leaders build clarity, cohesion, and confidence into every level of their company.About Town Square Business AdvisorsTown Square Business Advisors partners with business leaders and organizations to create sustainable growth through strategic clarity, operational excellence, and people-centered culture.

Meet the Expert Panelists Caroline Fiennes is the Founder and Director of Giving Evidence, an organization that promotes evidence-based charitable giving to ensure donations create measurable impact. A Visiting Fellow at Cambridge University and author of It Ain't What You Give, It's the Way That You Give It, she is recognized globally as a “charmingly disruptive” expert on effective philanthropy and has advised leading donors, companies, and foundations worldwide. www.giving-evidence.com Paul G. Schervish is Professor Emeritus of Sociology and former Director of the Center on Wealth and Philanthropy at Boston College, where he pioneered research on the moral, social, and emotional dimensions of wealth and giving. A Fulbright Scholar and five-time honoree on The NonProfit Times “Power and Influence Top 50,” he has shaped how scholars and practitioners understand philanthropy as both a financial and spiritual endeavor. http://www.bc.edu/cwp Yvonne L.

Building an Impactful Philanthropic Portfolio Caroline discusses why giving should be as strategic as any investment. Rather than random donations, align your charitable “portfolio” with your skills and resources—and verify that you're meeting real needs with evidence-based solutions. She advises, "It's important to think about what you have... Money is the most obvious thing, but there can be other things donors bring as well." 2. The Emotional Rewards of Giving Paul reveals that generosity is deeply connected to happiness and meaning. Drawing on Aristotle's concept of “philia”—friendship love—he explains, “The more you feel the people you are looking to help are actually yourself, or people like those whom you love...the greater is your generosity.” Joy comes from connecting your giving to your deepest values. 3. Values-Driven and Relationship-Centered Giving Yvonne urges donors to engage their families and communities—not just write checks. Impact starts with understanding the problems you're trying to solve, ongoing donor education, and building trust with nonprofits. “Philanthropy is not about wealth, it's about worth and how you understand the worth of other people,” she shares. 4. Technology and Financial Planning Tools for Greater Impact  Stephen demystifies donor advised funds and tax-smart strategies, making giving frictionless and empowering donors to commit more, without financial strain. “We want to put a lot of focus on making the transactional frictionless so the relational can flourish,” he says. From bunching to appreciated stock, financial tools are game changers for modern philanthropists. Call-to-Action Inspired Money Challenge: This week, take one intentional action toward generosity: set up a recurring donation, research a charity before giving, or simply give your time to someone who needs support. Do it with purpose, and notice how it makes you feel. Find the Inspired Money channel on YouTube or listen to Inspired Money in your favorite podcast player.
