This week, we are bringing to you a special episode of Wrongful Conviction with Maggie Freleng featuring Selma Butler. Maggie has returned to share this remarkable story with you, and to set the stage for another special announcement next week alongside Pulitzer Prize-winning author and creator of the Bone Valley podcast, Gilbert King. So please make sure and check in next Wednesday, July 16th. On November 13, 1995, Angela Young was stabbed to death in her apartment which was located in a building that was controlled by the Gangster Disciples in Chicago, IL. Within weeks, teenagers Selma Butler and Gino Wilson were charged with the murder—despite the shaky testimony of a single 14-year-old witness. Gino was acquitted, the witness recanted, yet Selma was sentenced to 50 years in prison. In this episode, Maggie talks with Selma Butler and Ashley Cohen, Managing Partner at Bonjean Law Group and founder of ABC Reentry, a nonprofit helping people rebuild their lives after incarceration.

In a world where 17% of all electricity is generated from wind and solar and where 93% of all new capacity added to the grid is from renewables, it can be easy to forget that countries got their first wind and solar resources within just the last few years. And in fact, some countries are still waiting for their first. Today on Cleaning Up, we're joined by Daniel Calderon, Founder and Managing Partner of Alcazar Energy Partners. Daniel has made it a specialty of going into countries overlooked by others, building their first wind and solar farms, and as he explains, doing it profitably. Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is supported by the Leadership Circle, and its founding members: Actis, Alcazar Energy, Davidson Kempner, EcoPragma Capital, EDP of Portugal, Eurelectric, the Gilardini Foundation, KKR, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Quadrature Climate Foundation, SDCL and Wärtsilä.

In this eye-opening and insightful discussion, Chris Perkins, Managing Partner and President of CoinFund and macro thinker and founder of Visserlabs, Jordi Visser, explore the profound impacts of AI and crypto on the future of the global economy and investment landscape. Jordi argues we will soon see a significant societal and financial shift: that traditional business cycles are dead, the Fortune 500 will not exist and Stablecoins are the bridge to the future. Thanks to legislation like the “Genius Act” and “Clarity Act”, Jordi feels investors and financial institutions will see Stablecoins as a critical bridge between traditional and digital investing — and give an accessible money alternative to people in countries with volatile currencies. Jordi and Chris also talk about ALT coins, including what they see as a big boom coming for Ethereum and Robinhood's breakthrough act to take private equity public through tokenization.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Joel Agard, Group Head of Innovation at Zurich Insurance, who has been driving bold, transformative startup collaborations across 40+ markets. His work has reshaped the way a global insurance giant works with startups, proving that innovation isn't just about flashy tech – it's about building real, meaningful partnerships that deliver results. From navigating the early days of Zurich's Innovation Championship back in 2018 to scaling the program during a global pandemic – and now leading the charge into the future – Joel brings passion, strategy, and a touch of risk-taking to every conversation. KEY TAKEAWAYS The football World Cup in 2018 inspired us to piggyback on the concept of a competition to try and raise awareness of corporate/startup partnerships. Back then, working with startups in our industry wasn't the norm, we were working with big technology companies. We asked ourselves; how can we show the art of the possible and show that working with startups can really work? This is when we invented the Zurich Innovation World Championship. In the beginning the pace that startups wanted to – and could – go didn't always resonate with the pace Zurich wanted to go. We had to align expectations and create a safe environment where we could test fast and where it was OK to fail. I've fallen in love with cool technologies so many times, and I still do: I'm a geek. But, we had to learn that if these shiny, amazing technologies don't really solve a problem for our customers or internal stakeholders, it's not fit for purpose for us. It might be that it's too early or is not a good fit for us. BEST MOMENTS ‘We at Zurich bring our reputation, brand, and insurance expertise from 150 years. Startups bring agility and speed because they are born in a digital world.' ‘Failing in a big corporate often doesn't have a good image. We've proved that failing fast and cheap is something we can achieve and is beneficial for the startups. It's now a normal part of our process.' ‘The Covid pandemic accelerated digital transformations, there were a lot of opportunities out there to accelerate our initiatives, so increased the number of startups, pilots.' ‘It's crucial to understand the gaps and problems you want to solve because we'd be wasting each other's time otherwise.' ABOUT THE GUEST Joel Agard is Group Head of Innovation at Zurich Insurance. With a career dedicated to fostering groundbreaking solutions, Joel spearheads Zurich's Venture Client Startup Engine, a program that drives innovation across 40+ markets worldwide. His work focuses on bridging the gap between startups and corporate needs, enabling Zurich to leverage cutting-edge technologies and solutions to stay ahead in the ever-evolving insurance landscape.

“If you cannot change the system, change the frigging system… Women, when we have our money, are more likely to start an impact fund business or something. So, we have really got to get out of our way and just take the risk. " Tracy Gray at The Earth Day Women's Summit 2025 Innovative financing models are urgently needed to tackle the climate crisis, but significant gaps persist. Research shows that women and people of color deliver stronger returns yet continue to be underrepresented. Meanwhile, the insurance industry must confront the mounting risks of climate disasters.   So how can our financial systems better support women-led and minority-owned businesses, fund climate resilience and provide high return of investments?  Listen to this live recording of a riveting panel at The Earth Day Women's Summit at Earthx2025, moderated by Kristina Wyatt, Chief Sustainability Officer & Deputy General Counsel, Persefoni. You'll hear from Enya He, consultant with Munich Re and insurance industry expert, on how the insurance sector is confronting escalating climate risks. Shelly Porges, Managing Partner, Beyond the Billion, who shares strategies for women to access capital and build powerful allyships. Tracy Gray, Founder & Managing Partner of The 22 Fund, who sheds light on the systemic barriers that women and people of color face in securing venture capital. Kristina Wyatt, Chief Sustainability Officer & Deputy General Counsel, Persefoni.   “One strategy that I encourage every woman to consider, is to make men your allies because they control most of the assets. Not all men will be your allies. But if you look at the men in your lives who have been supportive of you or know what you're capable of, who have seen how hard you've worked, who've seen your successes, who have seen how much you've influenced other people, all of the above, then you can make men your allies.” Shelly Porges at The Earth Day Women's Summit 2025   You'll also like: Climate Is A Security Emergency – from The Earth Day Women's Summit 2025, with a top climate scientist and geopolitical expert Food, Fashion & Ag vs. Climate Change – from The Earth Day Women's Summit 2025, with top scientists and innovators in these fields What's The Role Of Business Today In Addressing The Climate Crisis? - from The Earth Day Women's Summit 2025, with top business leaders Rewriting The Climate Conversation - - from The Earth Day Women's Summit 2025, with top communicators, including a Hollywood producer and conservative voice Shelly Porges, Co-Founder & Managing Partner, Beyond the Billion Dollar Fund, on funding women entrepreneurs Kristina Wyatt, Chief Sustainability Officer & Deputy General Counsel, Persefoni, on climate disclosure rules.

Think negotiation is just for boardrooms and big business deals? Think again.  Negotiation is everywhere, whether you're asking for a raise, buying a car, or convincing your kids to brush their teeth. And if you're doing it without empathy, you're leaving results (and relationships) on the table. Today's guest is Andres Lares, Managing Partner at the Shapiro Negotiations Institute. He's helped close multi-million dollar contracts – including a $184M MLB deal – and now trains leaders at Fortune 500 companies, pro sports teams, and global organizations on how to influence with intention. He's also the author of Persuade: The 4-Step Process to Influence People and Decisions. Negotiating with Emotional Intelligence Forget bluffing and bravado. Andres explains why emotional intelligence is the real power play in any negotiation – whether you're leading a team, buying a business, or parenting toddlers. You'll learn how to read the room, ask better questions, and use empathy to get what you want without damaging relationships. If you've ever felt like your message isn't landing, this conversation's for you. The 3P and PAID Frameworks You Can Use Right Now Most people wing the negotiation phase and wonder why their deals fall through. Andres shares two simple, repeatable frameworks you can plug into any negotiation today: 3P (Prepare, Probe, Propose) and PAID (Precedents, Alternatives, Interests, Deadlines). These tools help you think clearly, ask the right questions, and walk into every conversation with a strategy that puts you in control. Whether you're making your next hire or negotiating a partnership, this is your blueprint. Enjoy this episode with Andres Lares… Soundbytes 07:46 - 07:55 “So we're no longer teaching how important relationships are. We're just giving the methodology and skills in order to be able to balance the relationship building with the results.” 10:38 - 10:50 “You'll notice, for example, the other person talks much slower, or has a lot of questions early on, or is always asking for information in advance. Well, you start to pick up on those cues, and you start to realize, okay, this meeting's gonna be more effective if I send it in advance.” 17:00 - 17:10 “So if you don't think you're worth $75,000, you're probably not going to be able to make that ask from a salary perspective in a very convincing way, because you don't even believe it.” Quotes “Think about every scenario. You negotiate. You negotiate with your kids, you're negotiating salary.” “The phrase we always talk about is maximizing your objectives while satisfying the other side.” “There's a relationship component, and an emotional intelligence component, which really has to be at the forefront.” “I've never actually applied for a job I've got. It's been relationships in my network.” “People make decisions emotionally, and then they justify rationally.” Links mentioned in this episode: From Our Guest Website: https://www.shapironegotiations.com/  Connect with Andres Lares on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreslares/  Connect with brandiD Download our free guide to learn 16 crucial website updates that attract more leads and convert visitors into clients: https://thebrandid.com/website-tweaks/ Ready to elevate your digital presence with a powerful brand or website?  Contact us here: https://thebrandid.com/contact-form/

AI-powered enterprise intelligence and automation platform Oraion has announced it has raised $3.5 million in a pre-seed funding round to support product development and accelerate expansion into the US and Latin America. The investment will also enable Oraion to expand its team, with the aim of tripling the workforce to 45 staff focused on engineering, R&D, and go-to-market by the end of 2026. As demand grows for secure and reliable AI solutions, Oraion's intelligence platform provides enterprises a direct line from raw data to clear decision-making in seconds, providing them with deep insights and integrating automatically into existing workflows without disruption. Over the past year, Oraion has gone from stealth mode to landing enterprise customers across e-commerce, cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, private equity, investment management, and financial services. As a remote-first company, Oraion is seeking strategic talent in the US and worldwide to accelerate their vision, close to their customers, with location flexibility to attract the best industry talent. The pre-seed round was led by US-based Studio VC, an early-stage venture capital firm based in New York City, with several high-profile backers including Enterprise Ireland and angel investors such as Paul Forster, Co-founder of Indeed.com; Aidan Corbett, Co-founder and CEO at Wayflyer; Gearoid O'Brien, Principal Data Scientist at YouTube; Juho Parkkinen, CFO of the Burning Man Project; Angus Miln, Partner at Cooley LLP; Maurice O'Donoghue, serial entrepreneur; Adam Wilson, Nordea Bank; Maria O'Brien, Partner at SOSV; and Pierre-Antoine Porte, OpenAI. Oraion is an AI-powered platform that makes raw enterprise data instantly useful. Teams across any industry can chat with their enterprise data to surface insights in real time and predict and prepare for business events before they happen, all using Oraion to accelerate data to action. Oraion's agents interrogate internal and external systems, extracting context and content to deliver current recommendations in time-sensitive and data-dense arenas such as investment intelligence, customer sentiment analysis, and workflow automation. The platform can serve as a company's enterprise data store or seamlessly connect with their existing data infrastructure, supporting over 300 data sources. By integrating directly with productivity applications like Slack, Microsoft Teams, and more, executives can interact with Oraion through their existing applications, receiving the responses needed to make high-impact, data-driven decisions faster. Oraion acts as a trusted single source of truth that powers smarter, faster outcomes for enterprises. According to the 2025 State of Analytics Engineering Report, 80 percent of data professionals now use AI daily, up from 30 percent last year, signaling a major shift in how enterprises handle data. Yet 57 percent still spend most of their time maintaining or organizing data sets instead of driving business decisions, a persistent imbalance that limits the strategic impact data teams can make. Oraion is leading the way in helping teams move beyond routine tasks to focus on high-leverage work. Commenting on the investment, Alexander Walsh, Co-Founder and CEO, said: "This investment is an important step on our journey to transform how enterprises harness their data. It will accelerate our expansion and fuel the continuous evolution of our platform to deliver unparalleled actionable insights at scale. We are driven by a bold vision to secure 50 percent market share of Fortune 500 companies within the next three years. This funding brings us one step closer to reshaping the future of enterprise intelligence." Joe Coyne, Managing Partner, Studio VC, added: "We back founders who are ahead of the curve, and the Oraion team is building exactly where the enterprise world is going, toward more autonomous intelligent systems designed to serve humans, not replace them. Agentic AI isn't just a trend...

To unlock your company's full potential, it's essential to prioritize effectively while keeping an eye on future growth amidst everyday demands.    You're bombarded with advice, ideas, data, and they all can be urgent — but the actions chosen underpin your company's relevance and growth. It is up to you to decide what is practical and pragmatic and prioritize those actions. Leading with limits is crucial for your business.   Ideas, plans, ROI expectations are all part of the beginning. Once decisions are made, everyone gets moving — without knowing what the end looks like. Start adding endings before implementation begins. Without endings, even the best-run teams fall short and don't quite make it to the finish (because there isn't one!).   The outcomes of a growth strategy hinge on what we choose to prioritize. Our priorities reflect our values, and these values shape our work culture. Our achievements multiply when we deepen our understanding of each other and how we collaborate.   In this program, you will learn the power of using “no” as a boundary, why to create endings to achieve more, and why Present Retreat™ is the most powerful strategic tool amidst daily demands. Jess Dewell, Managing Partner at Red Direction and your host, shares with you why it is BOLD to focus on doing as much impactful as possible.   Here's what to expect:  Boundaries are important, and saying NO is a crucial boundary. Quick changes and our never-ending to-do lists often lead to burnout. Strategies for managing too many good ideas. The Present Retreat: a powerful strategic tool at your disposal. Focus on impactful work — now and in the near future, balancing both interest and influence.   By making small shifts, you can create lasting positive impacts that build on the work you've already accomplished while leveraging existing skills and strengths.    If you recognize that you're already steering the direction of your company's future, this is the moment to pay attention — your breakthrough moments for future growth can come from making intentional choices among the wealth of ideas and advice surrounding you. —-----------------   If you want to identify business bottlenecks, the necessary skills, the initial actions to take, the expected milestones, and the priorities for achieving growth, try the “Growth Framework Reset“ approach. This will help you keep learning and growing while working strategically on your business. -------------------- You can get in touch with Jess Dewell on Twitter,  LinkedIn or Red Direction website.

Today, I'm excited to speak with Drew Mason and Christianna Mason. Drew is Managing Partner at St. Joseph Partners, a precious‑metals brokerage and wealth protection firm serving individuals, families, and family offices across the U.S. and internationally. He is a G2 principal of Andrew Mason Associates, a family business founded in 1979 as a strategic management consultancy and later pivoted to acquiring and building businesses, with three ultimately sold to private equity. Christianna is Drew's daughter and a G3 member in their family office. She is a CPA who has advised Fortune 100 and private equity clients on global M&A from PwC's New York office. Earlier in his career, Drew held positions at major Wall Street firms including Lehman Brothers, where he witnessed first-hand the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, an experience that triggered a personal and professional search for true financial safe havens in times of stress. This ultimately led to him founding St. Joseph Partners, and over the past fifteen years, the firm's services have expanded to include: an online trading engine, secure domestic and international storage, private-label minting, audit and insurance facilitation and logistics. In this episode we focus our conversation on gold. Drew and Christianna share their views on what is so unique about gold as an alternative investment asset and why investors should be paying particular attention to gold right now. They also address the skeptics and risk managers out there, who may not be convinced, and explore what the worst-case scenario might look like for gold. Drew and Christianna delve into the options and intricacies associated with investing in physical gold vs. financial instruments that emulate the performance of gold. And for those who are worried they may have missed the gold rally and are wondering whether it's too late to get in now, they provide a perspective on where their think gold is headed from here. Enjoy this instructive conversation with two of the leading experts on multigenerational families investing in gold and precious metals.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Gregor Gimmy, founder of 27pilots, a company dedicated to helping companies build and scale Venture Client units and allows them to benefit from startup innovations faster at large scale and significantly lower cost and risk than traditional corporate venturing methods. On this episode we will explore how this Venture Client model is shaping corporate innovation, the strategic benefits it offers, and how companies can adopt this game-changing approach to stay ahead in a competitive world. KEY TAKEAWAYS When I joined BMW in 2012 I was surprised to find out the small number of startups that it was leveraging to improve its technology landscape across its value chain. I told them that CVCs were investing in 2.8 startups per year. This is not nearly the number needed to solve all the technology challenges that we have, we need more like 100. My initial idea was not to invent a new model but to improve the current one. I was told that if they invested in 50 startups per year they would have around 250 startups in 5 years whose equity state we would have to manage, which is impossible. I concluded that VC isn't scalable, but it didn't solve the problem BMW had either, which was accessing, adopting, and transferring cutting edge technology fast because it's about investment not technology transfer. These are two totally different business processes. We needed to look for a new approach: becoming a Venture Client. Accelerators and CVCs are indirect models – like using a third party's battery technology in the cars you produce – you first make the investment and then do the adoption of the technology. The different in the Venture Client model is cutting out the middleman. If you want to be good at something you need a dedicated unit. If you do it part time it will only work partly. If you make it a department you can have more time you can dedicate to it, you can have a dedicated budget, you have a more solid KPI structure. BEST MOMENTS ‘More than getting into the world of Venture Client Modelling, I invented the world.' ‘A Venture Client is a company that adopts startup technologies through procurement and M&A.' ‘A corporate cannot compete against a good startup like Palantir or Oracle when they were startups.' ‘The Venture Client model will displace Corporate Venture Capital to become the standard of corporate venturing.' ABOUT THE GUEST As captain of the 27pilots endeavour, and the visionary behind the Venture Client model, Gregor GImmy focuses on advancing Venture Client knowledge and growing the global community through 27pilots' corporate clients and academic allies. Gregor is deeply engaged in researching, publishing, and lecturing on the Venture Client model through leading business schools and top business engagements. Gregor is also a frequent speaker at startup-relevant conferences such as Slush, Web Summit, 4YFN and DLD. ABOUT THE HOST Sabine is a corporate strategist turned entrepreneur.

In February this year BP announced it was cutting its investment in green energy ventures from $5B to $2B while reallocating $10B to fossil fuels, and abandoning its 2030 oil output reduction target. Shell has also scrapped its planned 20% carbon reduction cut for 2030. It's not a good display of intent from the perspective of the energy transition. In a highly volatile and uncertain policy environment it's troubling for investors and clean energy developers. The prioritisation of short-term profit at the expense of long-term climate impact has many implications.To find out, host Sylvia Leyva Martinez is joined by private investor Ben Dell, Managing Partner at Kimmeridge. He says that while “everyone wants low-cost energy on demand with a minimal carbon footprint, every dollar invested has to be cost-competitive. Philanthropy is not an investing strategy.” What does that mean in the context of clean energy deployment?Plus, Wood Mac analyst Tom Ellacott joins the show to look at the outlook for oil and gas in light of the news from the majors. As he sees it, gas is a growth fuel for the next 20 - 30 years and the most optimal power delivery system is still renewables paired with small-scale batteries and natural gas. So why are major energy providers flip-flopping with their strategies when this is widely accepted?The key questions are: how are oil and gas majors adjusting their capital allocation between fossil fuels and renewables? What's the role of natural gas in the transition? And how should investors navigate volatility and uncertainty in energy markets? You'll get the answers here.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
