Founded by Meseret Warner, Ignite Investment has taken on the ambitious task of enabling equity crowdfunding in Ethiopia, a country where capital markets had been almost non-existent until recently. In today's episode, Meseret shared how her platform is connecting Ethiopia's burgeoning entrepreneurs with the African diaspora to overcome geographic and financial barriers.“Ethiopia never had capital markets in the country,” Meseret explained. “But now we have a new proclamation in 2021... and equity investment crowdfunding is one of them.” This regulatory breakthrough has allowed Ignite Investment to operate in Ethiopia under a sandbox model, enabling the platform to test innovative financial systems while adhering to local laws.What makes Ignite Investment's approach unique is its focus on the African diaspora. Every year, billions of dollars flow from the diaspora back to the African continent, primarily as remittances. Meseret has created a mechanism to transform these funds into equity investments that support Ethiopian entrepreneurs. “Our target market is the African diaspora that sends billions and billions of dollars… as remittances and even investment,” she said.One of Ignite's recent successes is a rideshare company addressing the transportation challenges in Addis Ababa. This venture, which connects commuters with a network of minibus drivers through an Uber-like system, has nearly closed its fundraising round thanks to Ignite's platform. Meseret revealed, “They could have been oversubscribed because there are a lot more people interested to see them.”This is no small feat. Meseret's persistence has helped Ignite Investment craft partnerships with organizations like Zemen Bank and the African Development Bank, facilitating cross-border investments and providing vital financial infrastructure. Her team's partnership with GIZ, the German development agency, also helps local companies become more attractive to investors by improving transparency and governance.Ignite Investment is more than just a crowdfunding platform; it is a bridge between Ethiopia's untapped innovation and the global capital it needs to thrive. Meseret's vision extends beyond her home country, with plans to expand into other African nations.For investors in the diaspora and beyond, Ignite Investment offers an unprecedented opportunity to support impactful businesses while earning financial returns. Meseret's work is a testament to the power of persistence, innovation, and a belief in the potential of African entrepreneurs.tl;dr:Ethiopia's regulatory progress enabled Ignite Investment to launch equity crowdfunding under a sandbox model.Meseret Warner connects diaspora wealth with Ethiopian entrepreneurs, fostering impactful investments across borders.Ignite's partnerships with Zemen Bank, GIZ, and the African Development Bank strengthen its financial infrastructure.A rideshare company solving Addis Ababa's transportation issues exemplifies Ignite's successful ventures.Meseret's persistence has been key to overcoming challenges and scaling Ignite Investment's mission to other African nations.How to Develop Persistence As a SuperpowerMeseret defines her superpower as persistence, a trait she's relied on during her 11-year journey to build Ignite Investment. She shared that overcoming regulatory hurdles and scaling an innovative platform in Ethiopia required unwavering determination. “Every year, I tell my husband, next year is my year… and then, of course, it doesn't happen. But I always see the light at the end of the tunnel,” she said. Persistence, combined with resourcefulness and partnerships, has been key to her success.Meseret recounted how her persistence helped her navigate Ethiopia's regulatory bottlenecks to establish equity crowdfunding. Ethiopia lacked a formal capital market, but Meseret engaged with regulators, participated in public consultations, and leveraged partnerships to secure a spot in the regulatory sandbox. After six years of groundwork, Ignite Investment is now operational, connecting diaspora investors with local entrepreneurs.Tips for Developing Persistence:Focus on the Big Picture: Identify a solution you believe in and let it guide your actions.Celebrate Small Wins: Acknowledge progress, even if it's incremental, to maintain motivation.Step Back Strategically: When facing challenges, reassess your approach and look for alternative solutions.Leverage Partnerships: Collaborate with individuals and organizations to solve specific challenges.Stay Resourceful: Continuously tap into your network to find answers and support.By following Meseret's example and advice, you can make persistence a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

The single-family housing asset class is the largest in the U.S, valued at $70 billion. In the past few years, however, this asset class has seen some of the same challenges of other commercial real estate classes, such as overleverage, increased interest rates and escalating expenses. As a result, attractive opportunities are starting to emerge that translate into solid investments that can generate a 7% yield. Noel Christopher, Managing Director of Strategy & Growth at Genstone Financial and Property Services, leads the strategic vision and execution for Genstone's national single-family rental property management business and associated services, including real estate brokerage, construction, insurance, lending, and title offerings. Noel also owns his own portfolio of 50 single family rentals.

Interview with Greg Bittar, Managing Director of Lotus ResourcesOur previous interview:Recording date: 10th September 2025Lotus Resources presents a compelling uranium investment opportunity as one of the few companies to successfully restart production in a supply-constrained market. The company has demonstrated operational excellence by bringing the Kayelekera mine in Malawi back online after a decade-long closure, targeting steady-state production of 2.4 million pounds annually by 2026.The investment thesis centers on strategic market positioning during a critical industry inflection point. As Managing Director Greg Bittar emphasized, "This is no longer a demand story. This is a supply story." Utilities globally face acute supply shortages while rebuilding inventories and securing long-term contracts, creating favorable conditions for new producers with operational capability.Lotus Resources has structured its production profile to maximize upside exposure while maintaining revenue stability. With 65% of production uncontracted, the company provides substantial leverage to uranium price appreciation, while 35% contracted volumes through 2029 ensure cash flow certainty. This balanced approach allows management to implement a patient inventory strategy, building working capital to capture anticipated price increases rather than immediately monetizing output at current market levels.The company's operational advantages distinguish it from competitors facing technical challenges. Hard rock mining operations at Kayelekera utilize proven metallurgy and established processing parameters, reducing technical risk compared to in-situ recovery methods experiencing industry-wide difficulties. The operation previously produced successfully until 2014, providing management with operational knowledge and historical performance data to optimize the restart process.Financial discipline characterizes the company's approach to capital allocation. The $50 million restart investment minimized dilution while maintaining operational flexibility through $40 million in deferred capital expenditures. These strategic deferrals, including power grid connection and acid plant reconstruction, create a clear pathway to $5-6 per pound cost reduction once commissioned, enhancing operational competitiveness and margin expansion.The development pipeline adds significant value through the Letlhakane project in Botswana, representing 115 million pounds of uranium resources grading 360-365 ppm. This larger-scale, longer-life asset can be funded through Kayelekera cash flows, providing growth optionality without additional dilution. The strategic timing aligns with anticipated supply shortfalls in the late 2020s and early 2030s, positioning the asset for optimal market entry.Geographic positioning in stable African jurisdictions provides operational and political advantages. Strong government support, demonstrated through presidential participation in reopening ceremonies, combined with 95% local employment and community engagement initiatives, creates sustainable operational frameworks. Established supply chains and regulatory environments in both Malawi and Botswana reduce execution risk compared to less developed mining jurisdictions.The macro environment strongly supports uranium producers with operational capability and strategic positioning. Chinese demand acceleration, Western utilities' need to replace Russian supply sources, and limited new mine development have created unprecedented supply constraints. Lotus Resources exemplifies the opportunity to capitalize on this transformation through immediate production capability, substantial price exposure, and development optionality.Risk considerations include inherent commodity price volatility, operational challenges associated with mining operations, and geopolitical factors affecting African mining jurisdictions. However, the company's proven operational capability, strategic market positioning, and financial flexibility create a compelling framework for uranium sector exposure during this critical market transformation.View Lotus Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/lotus-resources-limitedSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Andy Dunne thought other agency owners were the enemy. They'd steal clients, poach candidates, copy ideas. Sound familiar? Then he joined Team in 2014 just to save £130 a month on job boards.

In this episode, you'll discover: Why 80% of Team's agencies went from generalist to specialist since 2014 (and why the generalists are getting crushed) The market intelligence strategy that makes prospects call you instead of you chasing them How two specialist agencies split £40,600 by collaborating on out-of-niche roles The mental health reality of running an agency alone - and why Andy champions this cause Why your real competition isn't other agencies, but AI and managed service providers Andy shares the quarterly report strategy that made one agency owner "untouchable" with prospects, the collaboration mindset shift that's transforming the industry, and why the isolation of solo agency ownership is something that can't be ignored. Whether you're a solo agency owner or leading a team, this conversation challenges the "protect everything" mentality and shows how collaboration can transform your business. Andy Dunne is Managing Director of Team, the UK's largest network of independently owned recruitment businesses. With over 20 years in recruitment, including running his own agency, Andy is passionate about collaboration and community. Since joining Team, he's helped agencies save millions in job board costs and connect through an active network that shares over £6m annually in split fees.

The energy transition bears risks but also brings opportunities for investors. That insight drove the conversation led by Jayen Veerapen, Senior Advisor with the BMO Climate Institute, with Pooja Khosla, CEO of Entelligent, a developer of analytical tools to help the financial industry understand the future impact of climate change and energy transition. Also joining to discuss BMO's collaboration with Entelligent was Fabrice Tenga, Managing Director and Head of Equity Derivatives Financial Engineering, BMO Capital Markets.   “Every company is either a producer of energy or a user of energy. So, energy transition, yes, it impacts power companies, utility companies, but it also impacts technology companies that have a strong demand or use that energy component. It also impacts strongly the finance sector, because the funding of these companies is coming from the finance sector. So, we live in a very interconnected ecosystem of energy,” said Khosla.

Though he stepped away from music shortly after, those two tracks went on to achieve underground fame and built him a lasting fan base within the Electro and Miami Bass communities.After nearly four decades, DJ Matrix has returned with “Hypnotic,” a powerful, high-energy track that channels the same bass-driven intensity that defined his early work while fusing it with a modern EDM edge. The single features legendary artist Egyptian Lover, whose music first inspired DJ Matrix to pursue a career in electronic music, making the collaboration both full circle and deeply personal.DJ Matrix's journey is as dynamic as his sound. Following his early music career, he served in the U.S. Navy and later in the Marine Corps, including deployment during Desert Storm. Music had to be put aside as he focused on military service, raising a young family, and building a career outside of entertainment. He transitioned into corporate finance, becoming a stockbroker and later cofounding Randolph & Main Capital Group, where he continues to champion women and minority-owned businesses as Managing Director of Digital Assets. He also owned and managed professional basketball teams, including the Miami Pit Bulls of the ABA and the East Kentucky Miners of the CBA.Still, music never left his spirit. Encouraged by Egyptian Lover and rediscovering the international impact of his early songs, DJ Matrix returned to the studio with a renewed sense of purpose. His upcoming album, expected later this year or early next, will bridge classic Electro and Miami Bass with today's EDM landscape. With additional singles and a possible EP on the horizon, he is determined to give longtime fans the sound they have been waiting for while also introducing his style to a new generation of listeners.With “Hypnotic” leading the way, DJ Matrix is proving that his music remains as innovative and relevant as ever. Blending nostalgic analog energy with modern production, he is poised to spark a renewed appreciation for the Electro and Miami Bass sound that helped shape dance music culture.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Asset-based credit is reshaping the private credit landscape, offering investors new ways to diversify portfolios with the potential to capture higher yields amid market volatility. As banks pull back from certain lending markets and consumer behaviors evolve, asset-based credit stands out for its short duration, high yield, and low correlation to corporate credit. But what does this asset class really entail, and how can investors navigate its complexities?   On this episode of Disruptive Forces, host Anu Rajakumar welcomes Sachin Patel, Managing Director on the Specialty Finance team, to demystify asset-based credit and its expanding role in portfolios. Together, they explore the differences between alpha and beta strategies, discuss the impact of technology and consumer trends, and share practical insights for investors looking to access this dynamic and defensive asset class.     This communication is provided for informational and educational purposes only and nothing herein constitutes investment, legal, accounting or tax advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell or hold a security.

With 97% of farm income concentrated in just 3% of farms, the remaining 97% struggle to make ends meet, often forcing the next generation to leave farming altogether. Mark Smith, CEO and Co-Founder of Carbon Country, is working to reverse this trend with a groundbreaking vision that combines renewable energy, sustainable farming practices, and economic innovation.Mark's approach centers on agrivoltaics, a system of integrating solar panels with farming. “The idea behind Carbon Country is to transform the economics and sustainability of smallholder farms by adding agrovoltaics, which is a fancy word for solar above farming,” Mark explained. By installing solar panels over grazing land and using regenerative practices like rotational sheep grazing, Carbon Country creates a dual-purpose solution that enhances both energy production and soil health.The potential doesn't stop there. Mark is pioneering carbon removal practices, including biochar production and “wood vaulting,” a process developed by a University of Maryland professor. “We're building the first large-scale biochar facility in Maryland,” Mark said. These initiatives not only sequester carbon but also improve soil quality, making farms more productive and sustainable.To further amplify the economic viability, Mark has integrated energy storage and Bitcoin mining into the model. “We're putting battery storage and Bitcoin mining together, creating an ecosystem with our panels,” he said. By arbitraging peak and non-peak power prices, Carbon Country maximizes revenue while helping stabilize the energy grid.Currently, Carbon Country is raising capital through a regulation crowdfunding campaign on Vicinity Capital. This innovative platform connects investors with high-impact projects, providing opportunities to support sustainable solutions like Mark's.Mark's work is more than a business—it's a mission to ensure smallholder farms remain productive for future generations. “Our goal is to make these farms legacy assets,” he said, “doing important things for both the economy and the environment.”If you want to learn more or invest in this inspiring initiative, visit Carbon Country's crowdfunding page and join the movement to reshape agriculture and energy for a better future.tl;dr:Mark Smith shares how agrivoltaics can transform smallholder farms by combining solar panels with farming.Carbon Country integrates biochar production and carbon storage to improve soil health and sequester carbon.Renewable energy, Bitcoin mining, and storage create economic opportunities for struggling smallholder farmers.Mark explains his superpower of rapid learning and offers advice for mastering new fields.This episode highlights Carbon Country's crowdfunding campaign to support sustainable farming and energy solutions.How to Develop Rapid Learning As a SuperpowerMark Smith's superpower is his ability to quickly master new fields of knowledge. “I think my superpower really is being able to get to near expert level on practically anything very quickly,” he said. This remarkable skill has allowed him to tackle challenges in diverse areas such as recycling, water filtration, and now agrivoltaics. Mark credits his success to curiosity, humility, and a willingness to dedicate time to learning and experimentation.Illustrative Story:Mark shared an example of how his rapid learning ability transformed an idea into reality. Initially exploring abandoned mining sites for solar projects, he discovered that ranches were a better fit. By asking questions about land use and grazing practices, he realized he could integrate rotational grazing and biochar production with solar installations. Through research and conversations with experts, he developed a model that improves soil health, sequesters carbon, and generates renewable energy—all while supporting smallholder farmers.Tips for Developing This Superpower:Be Curious: Read extensively and watch content to understand the basics of new fields.Seek Advice: Approach experts with humility and ask thoughtful questions.Experiment: Start small and learn by doing, even if it means making mistakes.Stay Open: Embrace being a beginner and remain receptive to unexpected insights.By following Mark's example and advice, you can make rapid learning a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Google escaped the harshest remedies in its long-running search antitrust trial, with the court declining to force a Chrome or Android spinoff or ban payments to partners like Apple and Samsung. Meanwhile, media buyers are taking a closer look at Publicis-owned Epsilon SSP, with some blocking it entirely due to transparency concerns. And in the AI space, Perplexity has pulled back on its ad experiments, raising bigger questions about how generative search can—or should—be monetized. Judge Mehta's ruling spared Google from structural breakups or bans on partner payments, requiring only limited data sharing and oversight for six years. Generative AI competition from OpenAI, Microsoft, Meta, and Perplexity influenced the court's belief that search competition is evolving without harsher remedies. Google maintains dominance with 65–70% of global browser share and around 40% of ad spend coming from paid search. Media buyers discovered they were funneling spend through Publicis-owned Epsilon SSP via reselling, sparking data leakage and conflict-of-interest concerns. Perplexity scaled back its ads after advertiser pushback, highlighting the lack of clear value, measurement, and final product structure in AI-driven ad formats. Learn more about your ad choices.

Interview with Nic Earner, Managing Director & CEO, Alkane ResourcesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/alkane-resources-asxalk-mid-tier-producer-born-from-strategic-mandalay-resources-merger-7637Recording date: 8th September 2025Alkane Resources has successfully completed its merger with Mandalay Resources, creating a debt-free gold producer targeting 160-175,000 ounces annually across three strategic mining jurisdictions. The combined entity operates mines in Australia (Tomingley & Costerfield), and Sweden (Björkdal), providing investors with geographic diversification and operational risk mitigation in an increasingly volatile global environment.The company has eliminated its Macquarie debt facility while allocating over $80 million toward growth capital and exploration programs. Managing Director Nic Earner emphasizes the integration challenges, noting the need to harmonize "distributed management structures and styles" while adapting to dual ASX and TSX reporting requirements for both Australian and North American investor bases.Alkane's three-asset portfolio offers compelling diversification benefits. Tomingley receives $50 million in growth capital for open-cut development, while Costerfield, the highest-grade operation producing 45-50,000 ounces annually, benefits from a $25 million exploration program targeting resource expansion. The Swedish Björkdal operation operates a substantial 1.4 million ton mill capacity, currently underutilized but positioned for expansion.The elevated gold price environment has fundamentally transformed mine economics, enabling access to previously uneconomical mineralization. As Earner notes, "there may be mineralization at a different price you would not have bothered with, whereas now you're getting it."Looking ahead, Alkane maintains disciplined acquisition criteria, requiring any new development to achieve production by 2027. The company targets three M&A categories: merger-of-equals transactions, developers requiring capital for near-production assets, and distressed producers facing capital constraints. With proven operational excellence—missing guidance only once in 14 years—and a clear path to exceeding 180,000 annual ounces through organic growth, Alkane positions itself as a consolidation leader in the sector's ongoing transformation.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/alkane-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

What if your greatest leadership asset isn't another strategy or skill, but an untapped wellspring of wisdom already within you? In this illuminating conversation with integrative executive coach Mara Benner, we explore the revolutionary concept of "inner wealth" - the gold standard for today's visionary leaders. Drawing from her 20+ years of experience working with Fortune 100 executives, Mara reveals how exceptional leadership emerges when we balance our sympathetic (fight-or-flight) and parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) nervous systems.Most high-achievers remain stuck in sympathetic overdrive, pushing harder when facing challenges. Yet as Mara explains, this approach blocks access to our inner guidance system - that intuitive intelligence that Steve Jobs tapped into during his famous two-week meditation retreats before developing groundbreaking products. Through practical techniques like alternative nostril breathing and energy currency tracking, she demonstrates how leaders can access this wellspring of creativity and clarity.The conversation ventures into fascinating territory around shadow integration, seasonal leadership rhythms, and the difference between force and flow in entrepreneurship. We discuss how leaders must learn to distinguish between analytical mind chatter (which excels at execution but keeps us trapped in mental rumination) and the deeper wisdom of intuition that provides unexpected solutions and visionary direction.As we navigate an era of unprecedented change and AI advancement, Mara argues that this inner wealth - not just technical skill - will differentiate exceptional leaders. Her approach isn't about abandoning drive or ambition, but channeling these qualities through inner wisdom instead of ego-driven effort, resulting in sustainable success without burnout.Ready to transform your leadership from the inside out?

We follow Herman Daly into one of the last places you'd expect to find a rebel economist: the World Bank. We will hear how the academic work of Herman's sister, Denis Daly Heyck, impacted on his worldview.

Do you really need Mick Fanning on board to make your wave pool project successful? You need Mick for the zest and allure that attracts aspiring punters to take the plunge at your facility. And you would be hard-pressed to find a more professional, well-spoken athlete representative who just so happens to also be an investor. In this episode of the WavePoolMag Podcast, we speak with Luke Altschwager, Managing Director of Palm Valley Surf Park, who has partnered up with Mick to build the Gold Coast's first wave pool. Our discussion covers the project's current status, including funding milestones, some revised master planning, and wave technology selection (spoiler alert: It's Endless Surf). Luke also shares unique insights learned from visits to other global surf parks and how mixed-use developments might be the solution for several up-and-coming projects.

In this episode, we chat with Paul Bennett, Managing Director of Medallion Metals, who are on a pathway to transforming the landscape for gold and copper mining in Western Australia with its flagship Ravensthorpe Gold Project. They have been making headlines with a major upgrade at Ravensthorpe, a feasibility study on the horizon, and a transformational deal to acquire the Forrestania operation. We'll be talking with Paul about how the upgraded resource reshapes the mine plan, the path to a final investment decision, and how existing infrastructure at Forrestania could accelerate the company's journey to production. KEY TAKEAWAYS Medallion Metals is a pre-production gold and copper producer in Western Australia, with a market capitalization of approximately $230 million and $25 million in cash reserves. The company is focused on advancing its flagship Ravensthorpe Gold Project and aims to produce 70,000 to 80,000 ounces of gold per annum. The recent upgrade of the sulfide resource to nearly one million ounces has reshaped Medallion's development strategy, allowing for a more focused approach on the underground sulfide component A feasibility study is expected to be completed by the end of October, with key work streams including mining study optimisations and metallurgical test work BEST MOMENTS "The Sulfide Development Strategy has been transformational... it's all about compressing time, compressing capital to get to first production." "We expect that mine life will continue from there... we've unlocked the code now and we're getting closer and closer to production." "The cash balance is well and truly funds us through to final investment decision... we're really well placed in that sense." "We think there's a lot of upside... the deposit's relatively shallowly drilled. It's only drilled to an average depth of 100 metres."

Rents are falling, with the national average hitting the lowest point since September of 2023. It's sitting at $628, with Wellington being hit the hardest, with a drop of 11.8%, while Auckland fell 2.3%. New rental listings also surged 16% year on year, with 6,700 in August. Aspire Property Managing Director Mike Atkinson told Mike Hosking Wellington in particular is facing some specific economic challenges, as well as the ones faced by the rest of the country.

Klaviyo has become the de facto personal CRM for eCommerce. Ben Jackson, Managing Director for EMEA, joins us to unpack how brands move beyond campaign calendars into relationship-building at scale. We get into rocketship growth, why attribution is still broken, and how Castore's multi-instance CRM model points to a future where both/and thinking beats false trade-offs.If You're Just Following the Data, You're Following the PastKey takeaways:The marketer's identity crisis: Evolving from channel specialists to customer relationship managers orchestrating holistic experiences.Scale meets personalization: Castore manages 32 Klaviyo instances while maintaining intimate relationships through strategic automation.Attribution's cultural revolution: How brands are moving beyond "either/or" to "both/and" so they can measure immediate performance while building long-term value.Channel affinity intelligence: AI identifies not just preferred channels, but optimal timing to eliminate fatigue."There's not many brands that you would get tattooed on yourself. But if you're a sports fan, if you're a supporter of a national team or a football club... that means you really care about the experience you have with that brand." - Ben Jackson on Castore's passionate customer base"Rather than our reliance being quite heavy on sending out a load of email blasts to try and tick revenue targets... Let's tell those stories. Let's give the customer who we know is already incredibly passionate a reason to be loyal." - Max Holland (Castore) on content-driven relationship building"If you're just following the data, you're following the past. If you're following the competition, you're following what everybody else has done, and it's really difficult to differentiate if you're gonna do that." - Ben Jackson on creative marketing philosophy"Some of the impact you have as a marketer today, typically you take credit for the success in that moment. But some of it is about building that brand, building that customer experience... that doesn't just last for that point of one transaction. It kind of lasts over years." - Ben Jackson on long-term value thinkingIn-Show Mentions:Castore - Athletic wear brand managing 32 Klaviyo instances for partner teams and clubsRory Sutherland - Behavioral economist discussing explore/exploit marketing philosophyK London - Klaviyo's European conference with 1,500 attendees and waiting listAssociated Links:Check out Future Commerce on YouTubeCheck out Future Commerce+ for exclusive content and save on merch and printSubscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce worldListen to our other episodes of Future CommerceHave any questions or comments about the show?
