Creating Engaged Employees and Loyal Customers   Shep interviews Stephen Baer, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Engagency. He talks about his new book,  Stickology, and how building strong emotional connections and engaging both employees and customers leads to lasting loyalty.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    How does internal employee engagement influence external customer experience?  Why is it important for organizations to go beyond surface-level personalization in delivering customer experiences?  How can companies strike the right balance between friendly service and convenience to create lasting loyalty?  How can organizations move from transactional interactions to building relationships with their customers?  Why is it essential to invest in employee experience to drive customer satisfaction?  Top Takeaways:    Internal engagement is the foundation of strong customer loyalty. What happens inside your organization is always felt by your customers on the outside. If your employees are engaged, respected, and motivated, customers feel that in every interaction with your brand.   When organizations invest in their people, the result is better service and stronger customer relationships because empowered employees have the confidence to go above and beyond for customers.   Engagement isn't just good for workplace culture. It's good for business. Companies that focus on both employee and customer engagement see more revenue, higher employee and customer retention, and outpace their competitors.   It's easy to form a connection, but lasting loyalty requires deeper engagement. Connections made quickly can fall apart just as fast if the next interactions are inconsistent. Genuine engagement takes time and is operationalized so it ingrained in the culture and felt in every interaction.  Personalization by itself, even when powered by advanced technology, is not enough to build lasting loyalty. Relying on algorithms alone will expose a brand to being outgrown by its customers or out-innovated by its competitors. Customers stick with brands that make them feel emotionally connected and valued. Human elements, not just algorithms, are what creates long-term fans.   Convenience is no longer a unique advantage. It is an expectation. Today's customers want easy, seamless interactions everywhere they shop. To stand out, businesses need to pair convenience with authentic, memorable service.   Customers are going to talk about their experience with a company. When employees are engaged, they create advocates, customers who often spend more, and are more likely to recommend the business to others.   Plus, Stephen shares more insights from his book, Stickology: How to Build Unbreakable Connections with Employees and Customers for Life. Tune in!  Quote:   "It's not just about connecting. It's about building a relationship. It's about making that person feel seen, heard, valued, and empowered, whether they are a customer or an employee. It takes time, but the bond holds together stronger."  About:    Stephen Baer is the author of Stickology: How to Build Unbreakable Connections with Employees and Customers for Life, and the Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Engagency.  He has 30 years of experience in behavioral science and engagement from leadership roles at companies such as The Game Agency, Atari, and GE.  Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.   Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of The Distribution, Brandon Sedloff sits down with Katie Fasken, founder of August Advisors, to unpack the overlooked depth of Canadian institutional capital. Drawing on her experience building institutional relationships at Slate Asset Management and launching her own boutique placement firm, Katie explains why Canada is far more than just the “Maple Eight” pensions.

What happens when a global law firm treats AI as a way to sharpen human judgment rather than replace it and uses change as a chance to rebuild stronger rather than cling to the past.   Client Centric Innovation anchors this conversation with Lorie Almon, Chair and Managing Partner of Seyfarth Shaw, one of the largest global law firms in the AmLaw 100. Lorie shares how she thinks about leading a firm of more than a thousand lawyers through rapid technological change while staying grounded in client-defined value and strong professional culture.   The Japanese concept of Kintsugi becomes a powerful lens for understanding this moment in the legal profession. When long-standing systems crack under pressure, do leaders rush to preserve the old shape or intentionally rebuild something stronger? Lorie explains how this mindset influences decisions around AI adoption, strategic growth, and the way knowledge and judgment flow across the firm.   What does it really mean to future-proof a law firm? How do leaders decide which traditions deserve protection and which need to evolve? And as technology accelerates, which human skills become even more essential? This conversation offers a thoughtful and pragmatic look at the future of legal leadership with people firmly at the center.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Client-Centric Innovation as a Leadership Strategy 06:08 Kintsugi and Rebuilding the Future of the Legal Profession 12:04 Strategic Lateral Growth Without Sacrificing Culture 19:02 The Role of AI in the Future 21:52 Capturing Institutional Knowledge With Data and AI 23:22 Why the Future of Law Firms Is Still Human Connect with Lorie Almon: Connect with Lorie on LinkedIn Lorie's Law Firm bio     Connect with Howard Rosenberg: Connect with Howard on LinkedIn Howard's Company Web Profile   Connect with Chris Batz: Connect with Chris on LinkedIn  Follow Columbus Street on LinkedIn Columbus Street Website Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Guests: Jerry Vance, the Founder and Managing Partner of Preferred CFO, and Scott Crawford, a Partner at Preferred CFO focused on client prioritization and new business development. Overview: A CEO who's led their company past the "I'll Do Everything" stage needs a true financial strategist at their side to stop surviving and start scaling. But the CEO also needs clarity on what kind of financial expertise their company truly needs at various stages of growth. Paying a full-time CFO to act like a glorified bookkeeper isn't going to accelerate your trajectory. And a "CF-No" who builds a moat around your cash might not share the CEO's bold vision for BIG.  On today's show, Jerry Vance and Scott Crawford explore the state of the fractional CFO industry and why forecasting and five-year planning are strategic leadership tools, not just accounting exercises.

What does it take to build a profitable hydrotherapy spa brand in three different markets and scale it to $10 million in annual revenue? In this episode, Harmony Oschefski and Cedar Hwang share how the bodhi spa grew from a bold idea sparked in Maui to a multi location wellness company rooted in contrast therapy, operational discipline, and community driven growth. We explore how sauna culture, cold plunge therapy, and a thoughtfully designed water journey can become the foundation of a scalable spa business model. This conversation goes beyond wellness trends and dives into infrastructure, financing, Department of Health compliance, maintenance systems, staffing strategy, and brand positioning in a rapidly growing wellness economy. What You'll Learn: How to design a hydrotherapy spa business model that balances water journey revenue with massage and facial services Why contrast therapy and cold plunge trends are only sustainable when supported by serious infrastructure and maintenance systems What it takes to secure SBA financing for a first time concept and how to successfully appeal a denial How to scale from one spa location to three while maintaining brand consistency and operational excellence Why weekly pool draining, state of the art filtration systems, and a dedicated maintenance manager protect long term profitability Episode Highlights: 03:12 – Growing up with sauna culture and cold plunges in Nova Scotia 11:48 – The Maui moment that sparked the bodhi spa business idea 18:27 – Getting denied for SBA financing and how they successfully appealed 26:04 – What a hydrotherapy water journey includes and why contrast therapy works 34:15 – Rebuilding the entire operating model during COVID to satisfy Department of Health requirements 41:22 – Scaling to Providence and Norwood and what changes with each new market 47:36 – Why weekly pool draining and a full time maintenance manager are non negotiable 53:18 – Reaching $10 million in revenue and building infrastructure for long term brand sustainability   Meet the Guests: Harmony Oschefski is Co Owner and Managing Partner of the bodhi spa. With a background in life sciences and functional health, she brings a complementary wellness perspective to spa development and operational strategy. Cedar Hwang is Co Owner and Managing Partner of the bodhi spa and a former 12 meter yacht captain. Her leadership experience and operational discipline inform the systems, staffing, and execution behind the brand's growth. Together, they have built three bodhi spa locations across New England and employ nearly 100 team members. Tools, Frameworks, and Strategies Mentioned: The bodhi spa Water Journey hydrotherapy circuit Contrast therapy using sauna and cold plunge sequencing SBA financing and structured loan appeal strategy Dedicated maintenance management with weekly full system resets Infrastructure first scaling model with General Managers at each location State of the art filtration, HVAC, and pool monitoring systems Gender inclusive design and dual temperature cold plunge strategy Closing Insight: The bodhi spa's growth story shows that the wellness industry rewards both inspiration and precision. Sauna culture and cold plunge therapy may attract attention, but long term success depends on disciplined maintenance, regulatory compliance, staff training, and operational infrastructure. As Harmony shares in the episode, the goal was never just to open a spa. It was to build a company that could stand on its own.   Looking for expert advice in Spa Consulting, with live training and online learning?

This episode features Ivanny Franklin, Managing Partner at MedSight Capital, who brings a wealth of experience from her background in molecular biology and her decade-long tenure at NAMSA. The conversation centers on the shifting paradigms of medical device investment, specifically how the industry is moving away from service-based models toward a focus on clinical outcomes.Etienne and Ivanny explore the critical intersection of global regulatory bodies—such as the NMPA in China and the FDA in the US—and the necessity of a cohesive clinical evidence strategy. Ivanny emphasizes that for startups, understanding market-specific data requirements is not just a regulatory hurdle but a fundamental component of commercialization and investor conviction.The discussion also dives into the "patient empowerment" movement, fueled by the convergence of wearables, AI, and at-home monitoring. Ivanny shares her bullish outlook on technologies that give patients control over their data, while acknowledging the tension this creates for physicians and the ongoing need for rigorous regulatory oversight to ensure safety and effectiveness.Key Timestamps[03:15] Global Regulatory Strategy: Insights into the NMPA (formerly CFDA) and why China requires in-country clinical evidence.[07:42] Leveraging Data: How to run a single clinical trial to satisfy multiple global regulatory bodies.[10:18] The At-Home Monitoring Shift: The rise of wearables and OTC testing in the wake of COVID-19.[13:45] The "Data Gap": Addressing the friction between patient-gathered data and physician adoption.[18:22] Investment Non-Negotiables: Why revenue-generating companies and clear regulatory classifications are key for MedSight Capital.[23:10] Diligence and Deception: The importance of honesty regarding reimbursement codes and 510(k) vs. PMA paths.[27:45] SPV vs. Hedge Fund Models: A breakdown of how Special Purpose Vehicles allow family offices to be nimble in MedTech.Quotes"FDA and NMPA, for example, are quite strict in clinical evidence coming from in-country... as a startup, you really need to understand can we run a single trial with multiple global sites to achieve clearance cohesively." - Ivanny Franklin"I'm an advocate for [at-home monitoring]. I do think that's the future. However, there is concern around what types of information should patients be receiving and how are they going to act on that information?" - Ivanny FranklinTakeawaysRegulatory is the Roadmap: An investment is often "de-risked" based on the clarity of the regulatory path. If a founder cannot distinguish between a 510(k) and a PMA, it is a major red flag for investors.Harmonize Your Trials: To achieve "economies of scale" in clinical evidence, work with consultants to design trials that meet the stringent requirements of both the FDA and international bodies like the NMPA early on.

Is it professionalism or just high-functioning burnout?In this episode, Gary Miles shares why so many successful attorneys feel trapped by the very careers they worked so hard to build. Drawing parallels between the legal profession and the themes of the book Seven Days in Utopia, Gary identifies the "External Authority Trap" that keeps managing partners and senior attorneys running on a treadmill of seeking validation from everything and everyone around them. The need to be available 24/7 or the fear that delegating equals failure, which Gary shows why both are a lie. Whether you are a firm owner or a senior associate, this episode provides a roadmap to reclaim your identity and lead with internal authority.

The US Supreme Court struck down President Donald Trump’s sweeping global tariffs, undercutting his signature economic policy and delivering his biggest legal defeat since he returned to the White House.Voting 6-3, the court said Trump exceeded his authority by invoking a federal emergency-powers law to impose his “reciprocal” tariffs across the globe as well as targeted import taxes the administration says address fentanyl trafficking.The justices didn’t address the extent to which importers are entitled to refunds, leaving it to a lower court to sort out those issues. If fully allowed, refunds could total as much as $170 billion - more than half the total revenue Trump’s tariffs have brought in.

In this EUVC Live at GoWest episode, Olivier Tonneau, Founding Partner Quantonation, Jeppe Høier, Co-Host at EUVC Corporate, Paolo Pio, Co-founder and General Partner at Exceptional Ventures, Fergus Bell, Founder and Managing Partner at The Players Fund, and Prashant Agarwal, Chairman and Managing Director at Scandian xplore one defining question:How does Europe turn frontier innovation into global scale?Across quantum, corporate capital, longevity, and sport, the same pattern emerges: Europe doesn't lack talent or research. It lacks the capital and market architecture required to scale strategic industries fast enough to stay independent.Olivier opens with Europe's quantum paradox. Europe supplies a meaningful share of deployed quantum computers globally, with strong startup and research clusters across the Nordics, France, Germany, and the UK. The science is world-class — but the financing is breaking. Over the last 12 months, the funding ratio between Europe and the US has shifted from roughly 1:2 to nearly 1:7, accelerating US scale-up, public listings, and acquisition pressure. Europe has 12–24 months to respond — not to avoid failure, but to avoid becoming the lab while others become the market.Jeppe shifts the lens to corporates. Corporate venture capital represents roughly 25% of global VC volume, yet the average lifespan of a CVC unit is only 3.7 years. His argument is blunt: most corporates launch venture arms believing they are “doing VC,” when they are actually building a strategic instrument without the operating system required to sustain it. Without durable governance — and a clear Build, Buy, Partner model — corporate venture becomes fragile instead of strategic.Paolo reframes health and longevity as deep tech moving at software speed. Genome sequencing has collapsed from decades to hours. mRNA proved that biology timelines can compress dramatically. With AI now embedded in diagnostics and discovery, health is entering an exponential era — and venture is being pulled with it.The session closes with a thesis most investors still underestimate. Fergus and Prashant argue sport is no longer entertainment — it is venture infrastructure. Athletes and rights holders are becoming capital allocators and distribution rails. Elite sport has evolved into a real-world deployment environment for deep tech, health tech, AI, and performance systems — where validation happens under pressure and at global scale.The takeaway across all five perspectives is clear:Europe invents early.But scale requires architecture.Late-stage capital depth.Liquidity.Corporate integration.Coordination.What's covered:00:30 Europe's scale question — five lenses on one problem02:00 Quantum's paradox — Europe leads in science, not in financing05:00 The 1:7 funding gap — why the next 12–24 months matter07:00 What Europe can do — capital architecture, procurement, scale funds11:30 Corporate venture — 25% of global VC, but structurally fragile13:30 Why CVCs fail — the 3-year vs 6-year test and governance gaps16:30 Longevity as deep tech — health moving at software speed21:30 AI in health — diagnostics, discovery, and exponential biology27:30 Sport as venture infrastructure — athletes and rights holders as rails34:30 Deep tech in sport — validation, performance systems, adoption under pressure40:00 Final takeaway — Europe has innovation; it needs scale architecture

In this daily editorial, we are joined by Marc Chandler, Managing Partner at Bannockburn Global Forex and Editor of the Marc to Market website. Marc provides a comprehensive analysis of a whirlwind week in the financial markets, headlined by a landmark legal shift in U.S. trade policy and a surprising cooling of the American economy. Key Discussion Points: Supreme Court Ruling on Tariffs: Analysis of the 6-3 vote overturning President Trump's use of emergency powers for reciprocal and fentanyl-related tariffs. Fiscal and Inflationary Impact: How the potential $170 billion in tariff refunds creates credit-negative pressure on U.S. interest rates and downward pressure on consumer prices. Q4 GDP Miss: Examining the 1.4% growth rate, well below the 3% forecast, and how the government shutdown distorted final sales and inventory data. Federal Reserve Outlook: Navigating the "fragmented" FOMC minutes and the market's pricing of 55 basis points in cuts by late 2026. Currency and Dollar Strength: Why the U.S. Dollar remains resilient in a "prolonged correction" despite weak economic data and geopolitical noise.   Click here to visit Marc's site - Marc To Market - https://www.marctomarket.com/   -------------------------- For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:  The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/  Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/   Investment Disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security or investment product.

Dragonfly raises a $650M Fund IV amid crypto's institutional vs retail sentiment gap, the industry exodus including Kyle Samani's departure from Multicoin, OpenClaw's OpenAI acquisition and crypto Twitter harassment, X402 payment standards for AI agents, Polymarket's controversial 5-minute Bitcoin betting markets, and the brewing federal vs state regulation battle over prediction markets. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This episode kicks off with major news: Dragonfly just closed their $650 million Fund IV, making them one of the largest crypto VCs not through growth, but because others have downsized. The timing feels surreal — they keep raising right when markets dump, creating the biggest gap between institutional optimism and retail sentiment Haseeb has ever seen. But money flowing in contrasts sharply with talent flowing out. Kyle Samani left Multicoin, Arianna Simpson departed A16z Crypto, and several other crypto veterans are moving on. The crew unpacks what this "great resignation" means for an industry that feels like it's shifted from pioneer phase to settler phase. Then they dive into the OpenClaw saga — the viral AI coding assistant that got acquired by OpenAI, but not before its creator almost deleted it due to harassment from crypto Twitter demanding he launch a token. This leads to a deep discussion on X402 payment standards and why AI agents might prefer crypto over credit cards. Finally, they debate Polymarket's controversial 5-minute Bitcoin betting markets and the brewing legal battle between federal and state regulation of prediction markets. Let's get into it.

James is the managing partner of Equity Value Advisors, advising brand executives and investors that are seeking guidance on how to accelerate e-commerce revenues and to align e-commerce and physical retail distribution and pricing strategies. Formerly, James was the chief strategy officer at Big Box Experts, a managed services agency supporting brand executive teams selling online, as well as private equity investors evaluating brands sold on Amazon. He has also served as the business head of Amazon Services, the division of Amazon responsible for recruiting tens of thousands of sellers annually to the Amazon Marketplace. He also served as the first fulfillment by Amazon Account Manager and prior to Amazon. James was a management consultant and retail banker. So with that introduction, James, welcome to the podcast.James 00:00:56  Thank you for having me today, Josh.Josh 00:00:58  On that note, James, I mean, we talked a lot about different strategies that people can be implementing to move from seven figures to eight figures and beyond. What would be like your actionable advice for them to say, hey, this is what I would do first, second, third.James 00:01:13  So the first thing I would do, we actually haven't talked about yet. First thing I would do is I would start to delegate tasks to people and clear up your plates so you can spend more of your time thinking about how to go and source better products, how to do more research to find those product gaps in your catalog that you can start to fill. How to start thinking about new channels that you might expand into. When I think of the day to day activities of what it takes to run an Amazon business, there's an awful lot of stuff that, quite frankly, we don't really like doing. You got to check reports. You got to check seller central. You got to check your inventory. You probably got to talk to your, three people if you've got one that's bringing products in from overseas. There's a lot of activities that need to be looked at. And I didn't even talk about, oh, you got to file 20 seller support tickets today. All that kind of stuff you need to be saying to yourself, even though I think I can do this better than anybody else in the world.James 00:02:08  The reality is, there's only so many hours in the day you need to go hire a VA or outsource this to a trusted colleague who, you know, make. Of course you know it's going to cost you money, but the money that you spend to have somebody do a lot of these repetitive tasks or tasks that you don't really like doing, that frees you up to do much higher value added stuff to drive your overall business. If you've got more time to be doing new product research and thinking through, okay, where is there opportunity for me to potentially expand my product line? where do I need to start thinking about culling out some of the products in my products? Because quite frankly, not all this stuff has turned out to be gold. You've got to have time to think through those bigger questions. And the only way to do that is to start outsourcing some of the mundane that comes with running an Amazon business. as you get better at outsourcing that and accepting the fact that, yeah, you know, this other person who's taking on these tasks may not be quite as amazing at doing it as I am, but quite frankly, I don't need amazing, I need confidence.James 00:03:10  And the more you can get competent help to help you with many of these tasks, the more time you free up to work on other types of activities. When my partner, business partner and I were running our Amazon agency, we did everything we put on every hat imaginable to run that business. And as we started to outsource certain tasks and get more comfortable with listen, we can outsource most of this stuff with high confidence to people, as long as we train them properly and we're patient and we get them up and running. All of a sudden we now had a multiplier effect. We have a multiplier effect. That's when the genius of being a business owner starts to really kick in. And yeah, you know, wouldn't you love to have five other people who is as strong and intelligent and good looking as you are to be there with you? I don't need that. I need 3 or 4 highly competent people in each of their specific areas to help me pursue different responsibilities so that I can go and tackle some of these bigger, long term questions.James 00:04:04  That's the stuff that really starts to matter, and that's the stuff where I get excited because I r...

As global supply chains fracture, AI reshapes productivity, and technology becomes a core instrument of national power, India is making an ambitious push to redefine its role in the world economy from IT services provider to deep tech superpower.In the season 2 premiere of  TechSurge, host Sriram Viswanathan brings together three defining perspectives to examine how India is positioned to become a global leader in frontier technologies, and what must go right for that vision to succeed.The episode begins with S. Krishnan, Secretary at India's Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, who outlines how India is treating deep tech as national infrastructure. From the India Semiconductor Mission and AI compute investments to the new RDI (Research, Development & Innovation) framework, Krishnan explains how long-horizon industrial policy is being used to derisk private capital, strengthen domestic design and manufacturing, and accelerate commercialization.Next, former G20 Sherpa Amitabh Kant places India's technology ambitions in a global context. As post-WWII institutions weaken and supply chains are redrawn, Amitabh argues that India's decade of structural reforms, digital public infrastructure, and global partnerships has created a historic opening, if India can sustain free enterprise, execution discipline, and state-level reform.Finally, T.K. Kurien, CEO and Managing Partner of Premji Inves, brings the investor and operator lens. Kurien explores why India has excelled at services and business-model innovation but lagged in core technology creation and what it will take to build globally dominant deep tech companies. From patient capital and university-led innovation to focused national bets in AI applications, biotech, and semiconductors, he outlines the path from ambition to execution.Across policy, geopolitics, and capital, one message is clear: India's deep tech future will not be decided by vision alone but by alignment between government direction, private risk-taking, and long-term discipline.If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.Sign up for our newsletter at techsurgepodcast.com for updates on upcoming TechSurge Live Summits and future Season 2 episodes.Episode LinksIndia Semiconductor Mission (MeitY): https://www.meity.gov.in/India AI Mission & AI Kosh: https://indiaai.gov.in/National Research Foundation & RDI Scheme: https://anrf.gov.in/Premji Invest: https://www.premjiinvest.com/Timestamps00:00 India's Deep Tech Inflection Point02:05 Industrial Policy as National Infrastructure06:52 Why Government Must Catalyze Product Innovation Beyond IT Services09:13 Building the Ecosystem: Talent, Research, Diaspora Return & Startup Scale13:10 India Semiconductor Mission (ISM): What's Different This Time24:56 ISM 2.0 Plans: Fixing Design Incentives & Unlocking Risk Capital27:15 IndiaAI Mission Explained: Compute, Data (AI Kosh) & Model Development33:09 Global Order Shifts: Supply Chains, Tech Power & Introducing Amitabh Kant41:19 Alliances That Matter: China, Europe/Japan Partnerships & Why the US Is Key54:11 How Government Can Take Risk: Fund-of-Funds, R&D Incentives, and Grand Challenges57:07 Dismantle Red Tape, Build World-Class Infrastructure, 01:00:57 Why Premji Invest Focused on Growth Stage (and What Changed for Early Stage)01:03:16 India vs US Investing: Where Returns Come From and Avoiding Valuation Hype01:05:28 Building India's Startup Ecosystem: Capital, Patience, and Core Tech vs Business Models01:13:41 Three Sectors to Bet On: AI Software/Agents, Biotech Breakthroughs, and Pragmatic Semiconductors

The Mag 7 have committed over $700 billion to AI infrastructure, but the companies building the models may never capture the value. Thank you to our sponsors: Adaptive Security Fuse: The Energy Network The BLS just quietly revised away 862,000 jobs, and real-time inflation trackers now peg price growth below 1%, less than half of what official figures report.  If the Fed is steering monetary policy with stale data, investors need to ask what else the models are getting wrong.  At the same time, the Mag 7 have committed more than $700 billion to AI infrastructure, with Anthropic alone projecting $1 trillion in revenue within five years.

Ashok Krishnamurthi, Managing Partner at Great Point Ventures, says the biggest mistake in venture capital is confusing prediction with judgment.Early stage investing is not about perfect stories, it is about first principles and picking the founder who can execute when the story breaks.This episode is for startup founders and investors who want a cleaner filter for what matters.“You have to learn to check your ego at the door because it's a partnership.”Ashok shares his path from engineering into building companies, then into venture capital, and explains how he forms an investment thesis when markets are noisy. We talk about founder evaluation, why picking the jockey matters more than the idea, and how first principles thinking shows up in real domains like healthcare data and cancer. We also get practical about artificial intelligence, why AI is not only a compute race, and how AI inference, energy efficiency, and cost shape what wins.00:00 Why legacy matters more than VC metrics02:28 Engineer to founder to venture capital11:16 How to pick the jockey14:21 First principles, cancer data, and AI constraints23:24 AI is here to stay, keep your mind open30:15 How to reach AshokIf this episode helped, subscribe and share it with a builder or investor who will use it.
