On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Yo Kwon, CEO at Voltaire.Claims. Together, we pull back the curtain on how enterprise operations (and in particular finance and insurance operations) are being reinvented – not tomorrow, but right now. KEY TAKEAWAYS           ·       I was working with my co-founder on Ai technology trying to work out what would be applicable for wider businesses. While we were testing ideas someone was using one of our products to write claims letters. ·       Adjustors don't enjoy writing claims letter, especially denials, they lean heavily on templates and cheat sheets to figure out the clauses to cite, so small mistakes and big ones can slip though. Voltaire generates each letter from scratch, it doesn't take shortcuts which removes the room for error.  ·       Litigation alone adds an average of $10,718 per claim in loss adjustment expense, we projects Voltaire can reduce litigated claims by 10% or more through more defensible correspondence. Even a conservative 5% improvement in leakage through clearer letters translates to $320,00 in recovered value.  ·       We include critical guardrails. If an adjustor requests a denial letter but there's no valid policy exclusion that exists to support the denial, the system returns ‘no relevant policy language was found'. This prevents a wrongful denial or compliance violation before it happens. BEST MOMENTS  ‘Before I started this company I did not think this would be a problem in 2025, and this is a problem because of the complexities of claims.'  ‘Whenever productivity is measured, people will choose speed over compliance, I'd go far as to say most adjustors never actually learn the correct way to write a claims letter.' ‘Claims managers and adjustors have told us the AI is teaching them things about policies that they've never known before.' ‘Our approach treats compliance as a product feature, not an afterthought.' ABOUT THE GUESTS Yo Kwon is the Co-Founder and CEO of Voltaire.Claims, where he leads the development of cutting-edge AI solutions that transform insurance correspondence. With deep expertise in artificial intelligence, decentralized systems, and cybersecurity, Yo brings a rigorous technical perspective to one of the industry's most overlooked but high-impact challenges: claims letter automation. Under his leadership, Voltaire has built a lightweight, API-driven platform that integrates seamlessly with core systems like Guidewire to deliver accurate, regulator-compliant claim letters in seconds.

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 week, Doug Colkitt, Founder Ambient Finance & Founding Contributor at Fogo, joins us as one of the wildest weekends in crypto history drags us back on air: a record $19B+ in liquidations, gas spiking toward $400, exchange APIs wobbling, and ADL ripping through perps as hedges vanished. We unpack what ADL actually does, why delta-neutral farmers got nuked, and how Binance's USDe and staked ETH/SOL pegs snapped amid index design and mint/redeem gaps—followed by refunds. We get into HLP vs. LLP (vaults vs. winning traders), the Hyperliquid “whale” short ahead of the tariff tweet, cross-margin reflexivity that torched alts, and why market makers wore outsized pain. Then we zoom out to infra: sequencers, force-inclusion in practice, and the case for on-chain clearing plus real insurance funds before the next Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pods, Fountain, Podcast Addict, Pocket Casts, Amazon Music, or on your favorite podcast platform.   Show highlights

Private markets are swelling, public markets are shrinking, and the line between the two has never been blurrier. In this episode, CJ sits down with Scott Voss, Managing Partner at HarbourVest, to make sense of what's happening across venture, private equity, credit, and secondaries. Scott explains why companies like SpaceX and OpenAI are now valued alongside public giants, how the surge in take-privates is reshaping corporate strategy, and what happens when the quarterly earnings pressure disappears. They dive into the rise of GP-led deals, the evolving role of private credit as the “third voice in the room,” and why liquidity—not scarcity—will define this cycle.

Topics:How to Prepare for a SaleCustomer Diversification as a Growth LeverImportance of Board Culture...and so much more.Top TakeawaysKeep leverage in check for stability. In the ImpactXM deal, David's team held the company for 10 years and achieved a 21x ROI. When COVID hit, low leverage and a diversified service mix kept the business alive. The lesson for independent sponsors: don't overextend just to win a deal. A strong balance sheet and disciplined cash management create the runway to survive shocks and capture long-term upside.Get the books in order before diligence. David explains that many deals fall apart because sellers aren't prepared. Independent sponsors should push for clean reporting, monthly closes, and 13-week cash flows. These basics streamline diligence, build investor confidence, and keep management focused on running the business.Board culture can drive exponential growth. Founder-led businesses often lack formal boards. Independent sponsors can add immediate value by instituting structured board meetings. Simple steps, like setting agendas, tracking follow-ups, and standardizing reporting, can shift a company from reactive to strategic and set the stage for growth.About David AcharyaDavid Acharya is the Managing Partner of Acharya Capital Partners, leading the firm's investing, strategy, and operations.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Bobbie Shrivastav, co-founder and CEO of Solvrays about building AI-driven workflows that aim to eliminate 70% of manual back office work with governance, auditability, and with human-in-the-loop controls directly built in. They also talk about what makes vertical AI for insurance defensible and measurable, compressing sales and implementation cycles without cutting corners on risk, change management, and how to augment teams as talent retires while new talent ramps up. KEY TAKEAWAYS When the work comes into an organisation, not everything is digital. Things are still mailed, the first help we provide is extracting the information from those manual sources and place it with the right person in their case management system. That alone eliminates 5-7 touch points. When an agent sends an email we're able to get a new business application, we're able to extract the information, we understand that this is a new business applications, and we can take that data and integrate it into the new business solution. Before, someone would have checked an email, gone to the new business application and keyed that in so work could move in. We've eliminated that complex new business touch point. 74% of our industry is still tackling legacy. Customers don't care if you're still using mainframes, they shouldn't feel a difference. We're using agentic AI as a connector to legacy systems, we're also doing database to database connectors, and for newer systems we're using APIs. We eliminate a dependency factor and empowered IT to work with new technologies, so they're not dependent on us. But the business and IT partnership with any project, whether it's our solution or another, is the key to success. BEST MOMENTS ‘We want to be a ray of hope for the operations staff for back office.' ‘What makes us superior, from an industry point of view, is that we've innovated in this space for the last 10 years, we understand operations intimately.' ‘Once a signature is signed, our goal is to do one workflow in two weeks, not months or years, weeks.' ‘Where I've seen most anxiety in business and IT is in implementation, it can drain your team. Our goal is: If we can build our orchestration layer the right way you don't have to be so tense.' ABOUT THE GUESTS Bobbie Shrivastav is founder and managing principal of Solvrays. Previously, she was co-founder and CEO of Docsmore, where she introduced an interactive, workflow-driven document management solution to optimize operations. She then co-founded Benekiva, where, as COO, she spearheaded initiatives to improve efficiency and customer engagement in life insurance.

What happens when luxury design meets the wild?Award-winning designer, Graeme Labe, Managing Partner and Chief Design Officer at Luxury Frontiers, shares how he's redefining hospitality by crafting experiences that connect people deeply to nature, while championing sustainability and community. Graeme shares his journey from traditional hospitality design to founding Luxury Frontiers, which focuses on creating unique, luxurious experiences in remote locations. The conversation covers topics such as the importance of experiential hospitality, the challenges of working in remote environments, and the role of sustainability and community engagement in their projects. Graeme also discusses the innovation culture within his team, their participation in the Radical Innovation Award, and the significance of site-specific design.Takeaways: Focus on creating unique, immersive experiences that connect guests to their environment, rather than just providing traditional luxury.Design experiences that gently push guests out of their comfort zones, allowing them to grow while still feeling safe and cared for.Integrate sustainability into every aspect of your projects: from site selection and building materials to community engagement and ongoing operations.Foster a culture of innovation within your team. Set up internal labs or competitions to encourage experimentation with new materials and ideas.Use natural materials and let the surrounding environment take center stage in your designs. Break down barriers between indoors and outdoors to enhance biophilic experiences.Thoughtfully integrate technology to improve comfort and accessibility, but also create opportunities for guests to disconnect and fully immerse themselves in the experience.Treat logistical, regulatory, and environmental constraints as opportunities to innovate and improve your designs.Quote of the Show:“ It's those moments that take you out of your comfort zone, when you're truly immersed in a place, that change your life.

Host Gary J. Ross talks with Chris Harvey, Managing Partner at Harvey Esquire and a prolific LinkedIn contributor, about three bipartisan bills pending in Congress that could reshape the VC ecosystem: the Equal Opportunity for All Investors Act (HR 3339), which would create an exam-based path to accredited investor status; the Improving Capital Allocation for Newcomers Act (HR 4431), which would raise Section 3(c)(1) fund limits to 500 investors and $50 million; and the Venture Capital Advisor Flexibility Act (HR 4429), which would increase the allowable percentage of secondaries and fund-of-funds investments for exempt reporting advisers.

If you've ever wondered how much you can (or should) take from your business—or why your bank account doesn't always feel as full as your profits say it should—this episode is for you!Glenn Harper and Julie Smith tackle a classic challenge faced by business owners—how do you actually pay yourself as an entrepreneur? Drawing inspiration from a recent lively dinner debate, Glenn and Julie talk about the difference between taking a draw versus running payroll, why cash flow discipline is crucial in those early ramen-noodle days, and the surprising tax realities every entrepreneur needs to understand. From the myth that business owners can “just take out whatever they want” to the essential 50% savings rule, this episode delivers practical advice on managing your money, setting boundaries, and knowing when—and how much—you should pay yourself. Additionally, they'll discuss why having a trusted advisor is important and preview upcoming deep dives into business structures and tax strategy. This episode is brought to you by PureTax, LLC. Tax preparation services without the pressure. When all you need is to get your tax return done, take the stress out of tax season by working with a firm that has simplified the process and the pricing. Find out more about how we started.Key Takeaways from the Episode:1. Don't Chase the Shiny Object (a.k.a. All That Cash in Your Business Account). It's tempting to pay yourself whatever's in the bank, but Glenn reminds us: “The more money you take out… the less money you have for the bad times or to invest back in your company.” Start by leaving enough cash cushion in your business to weather tough times and fund growth.2. Start Small, Think Big. When your business is getting off the ground, think like you're back in college—keep expenses lean and take only what you truly need. As Glenn puts it, “Pretend like you're back in college, eating ramen noodles and you can't take any money out.” Let your business account grow before ramping up payouts.3. Draws, Payroll, and the 50% Rule. If you're a sole proprietor or single-member LLC, you'll usually take draws (withdrawals) instead of payroll at first. But as your income grows (think $80k+), it might be more tax-efficient to become an S corp and start using payroll.Running a business doesn't have to run your life.Without a business partner who holds you accountable, it's easy to be so busy ‘doing' business that you don't have the right strategy to grow your business.Stop letting your business run you.

In this episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Axel Ragnarsson, Founder and Managing Partner of Aligned Real Estate Partners. Axel began his entrepreneurial journey by flipping cars in college, which eventually led him to real estate. Over the years, he built a personal portfolio of multifamily properties before expanding into syndication and capital raising. His focus is on acquiring Class B and C value-add multifamily properties, primarily in New Hampshire, with an emphasis on building lasting relationships and structuring deals that align incentives between operators and investors. Jonathan and Axel discuss the differences between transactional and relationship-driven investing, the challenges of scaling from small multifamily projects to larger ones, and why patience and consistency matter more than chasing exponential growth. Axel also explains how direct-to-seller strategies in multifamily differ from single-family approaches, how sellers often value ease and trust as much as price, and why creative deal structures can open doors that brokered deals never could. Their conversation underscores the importance of transparency, credibility, and long-term thinking in both acquisitions and raising capital from investors. If you're interested in understanding how to grow a multifamily portfolio the right way —through relationships, alignment, and steady growth —this episode provides a roadmap for approaching real estate with integrity and strategy. In this episode, you will hear: Axel Ragnarsson's progression from flipping cars to building an 80–90 unit multifamily portfolio Why he shifted from small self-owned deals to capital raising and syndications The mindset shift required for effective direct-to-seller outreach How relationship-building trumps transactional deal-making in multifamily investing The role of patience in scaling sustainably instead of chasing door counts Ways creative deal structures help unlock financing and opportunity Why aligned incentives between investors and operators are critical for long-term success Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

What if you could finally understand what it really takes to grow as a lawyer beyond just practicing law? In this first part of a special two-part Be That Lawyer Live, Steve Fretzin brings together Daniel Scola, Eido Walny, and Karl Seelbach for a candid conversation you won't hear anywhere else. You'll be pulled into their stories, their struggles, and the strategies that shaped their careers in ways most attorneys never talk about openly. As you listen, you'll discover how much of this applies directly to you, wherever you are in your own journey. This episode isn't just about hearing from successful lawyers — it's about helping you see what's possible for yourself. In this episode, Steve, Daniel, Eido, and Karl discuss:Challenges lawyers face in business development and rainmakingImportance of consistent habits and time management in client growthRole of personal passions, networking, and authentic connections in practice-buildingLessons learned from mistakes that shape long-term legal careers Key Takeaways:Many lawyers struggle with rainmaking because they aren't taught marketing skills, and mentorship or coaching is often the turning point in learning business development.Time-blocking, using a CRM, and accountability partners are crucial for keeping business development efforts consistent and measurable.Combining personal passions (like car restoration or music) with client relationships creates authentic connections that naturally lead to new business opportunities.Asking directly for business and following through on promises builds trust, while overpromising or relying on others' client relationships can backfire. "Not overpromising is a really important one for me… you've got to deliver what you say." —  Daniel Scola "There are two things that this firm can never and no one can ever take away from you. That's your knowledge base and your contact base." —  Eido Walny "Clients aren't going to remember every case you handle, but they're never going to forget how you make them feel." —  Karl Seelbach Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.Thank you to our Sponsors!Rankings.io: https://rankings.io/Legalverse Media: https://legalversemedia.com/ Ready to grow your law practice without selling or chasing?

Arthur Hayes & Tom Lee map the new crypto arms race—Hyperliquid vs Aster, Plasma's stablecoin rails, and ETH's DAT-fueled supercycle. 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. Live at Token2049 Singapore, we're joined by Arthur Hayes (Maelstrom) and Tom Lee (Bitmine) to map two battles shaping the next cycle: the Perp DEX war—Hyperliquid's moat vs. CZ-linked Aster, zero-fee experiments like Lighter, and whether ~$500M/year token unlocks can stay “bullish”—and the race to own stablecoin rails, from Tether-affiliated Plasma's zero-fee USDT chain to distribution plays like Tempo and Codex. We dig into DATs, mNAV compression, and Tom's “ETH supercycle,” plus prediction markets (Polymarket vs. Kalshi) crossing into the mainstream and a surprise Zcash revival. If crypto's future is being decided in trading venues and in money itself, this is where the battle lines get drawn.  Show highlights

Marshall and Giselle discuss Abundance Network's newly announced Abundance Elected Network, a community of local elected officials in city and county government interested in abundance and state capacity. They discuss why the local government version of the abundance discourse is completely different than the national level, think tank and pundit debate, how local officials are operationalizing abundance ideas, and what an outcomes-centered politics could look like.  

On this week's episode of Passive Income Playbook, Pascal Wagner interviews Peter Sack. They dig into why Chicago Atlantic targets underserved private credit niches, especially state-by-state cannabis lending where limited competition can mean first-lien structures at lower leverage with mid-teens to ~20% returns, plus classic lender protections. Peter explains how regulatory moats, disciplined underwriting, and downside focus beat “sexy” equity stories, and how potential legalization would likely trigger refinancings, prepayment fees, and warrant upside rather than harm. They also compare private funds to public options through Chicago Atlantic's BDC and mortgage REIT tickers, LIEN and REFI, and outline what LPs should evaluate in credit managers from lien position to non-accruals and third-party administration.
