iotum named the only Canadian key CPaaS provider by S&P Global on its worldwide list of 25 platforms as company, Helping UCaaS Providers Punch Above Their Weight with CPaaS, AI and Branded Communications, Podcast By Doug Green “Let us worry about it. Let the product people do what we're good at, and you can service your customers.” iotum has been named by S&P Global as the only Canadian key CPaaS provider on its worldwide list of 25 platforms, a recognition that comes as the company is launching a new softphone for UCaaS resellers. In this CCA podcast, I spoke with Jason Martin, CEO of iotum, about what the recognition means, how iotum is helping UCaaS providers expand their offerings, and why CPaaS, AI and branded communications are becoming more important to the next phase of the channel. The conversation centered on a familiar challenge in the communications market: many providers began as PBX companies, moved into UCaaS, and then continued adding services as customer expectations changed. Today, customers want messaging, video, branded applications, automation and AI-enabled communications experiences. For many resellers, the question is how to deliver those capabilities without having to build everything themselves. Martin said iotum is helping providers solve that problem through CPaaS capabilities and through its role in the Crexendo and NetSapiens ecosystem. For Crexendo partners, he said iotum can provide services that allow resellers to “punch above their weight,” offering advanced capabilities under their own brand. Those capabilities include A2P messaging, video and a new softphone that is becoming popular with NetSapiens users. The model is designed to let channel partners stay focused on customer relationships, while iotum handles the product and platform work behind the scenes. That is an important distinction. In a market where customers increasingly expect integrated communications experiences, smaller providers often need access to enterprise-grade tools without taking on the cost and complexity of developing them internally. iotum's approach gives those providers a way to extend their offerings while maintaining their own brand identity. The S&P Global recognition also points to a larger trend. CPaaS is no longer simply an enterprise developer category. It is becoming a practical way for UCaaS providers, resellers and channel partners to add communications capabilities that can be branded, integrated and delivered as part of a broader customer relationship. Martin also discussed how the communications industry is being shaped by regulation, global market changes and AI. iotum operates in highly regulated environments, including the U.S., Canada and Europe, and Martin noted that providers have to think carefully about compliance, customer trust and the requirements of different markets. Looking ahead, Martin said agentic AI will be “massive,” but he framed the opportunity in practical terms. Rather than replacing human communication, he sees AI adding to what communications providers already do. For iotum, that means an API-focused future in which AI agents can use communications tools to help people connect, collaborate and get work done. That point matters for service providers. As AI becomes more embedded in communications, the opportunity will not simply be to sell another feature. The larger opportunity will be to connect AI, voice, messaging, video and customer workflows in a way that helps businesses communicate more effectively. For channel partners, the message is clear: the next phase of cloud communications will reward providers that can combine trusted customer relationships with new technical capabilities. iotum is positioning itself as one of the companies helping partners make that jump.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1349: Today we talk about Mitsubishi cutting weak dealers while betting on a product comeback, the growing FTC pressure pushing vendors toward all-in pricing transparency, and Pizza Hut discovering the hottest new trend in retail… 1990s nostalgia complete with red cups and Pac-Man.Mitsubishi is shrinking its dealer network while promising a future product comeback. The brand has cut underperforming stores, frustrated some retailers with low profits and aging products, but says a new EV and refreshed lineup could turn things around.Mitsubishi's U.S. dealer count has dropped 16% since 2019, falling from 355 stores to just under 300 today.CEO Mark Chaffin says the strategy is “quality over quantity,” replacing low-volume stores with higher-performing operators expected to sell 3-5x more vehicles.Dealers say profits are razor thin, with many relying on used cars to stay afloat while struggling with an aging lineup and heavy fleet sales.Mitsubishi is betting on its “Momentum 2030” plan, including a new electric crossover this fall and several electrified models through 2030.One frustrated dealer summed it up bluntly: “Eventually Mitsubishi may get there with the new product, but it's going to have to commit more to the U.S. if it wants to do well here.”As regulators tighten the screws on vehicle pricing transparency, vendors are racing to help dealers stay compliant. S&P Global Mobility and TrueCar both rolled out new tools designed to simplify fee disclosures, standardize pricing, and avoid FTC headaches before they become lawsuits.S&P Global Mobility launched “FeeSync,” a free industrywide tool that lets dealers update fees across vendors and marketplaces from one central hub.The push comes as the FTC continues sending warning letters to nearly 100 dealer groups over pricing and advertising practices.TrueCar updated its platform to display all-in pricing upfront, including dealer fees and add-ons, with expandable disclosures for shoppers.TrueCar CEO Scott Painter said the platform's goal is “a transactional price that is good for both the dealer and the car buyer upfront, without negotiation.”Pizza Hut is leaning hard into retro vibes, remodeling stores to look like peak-1990s dine-in restaurants complete with Pac-Man, stained-glass lamps, and those iconic red cups. Turns out millennials will absolutely drive three hours for a little childhood comfort food.Since 2019, Pizza Hut has converted 144 locations into “Pizza Hut Classics” with throwback décor and dine-in experiences.Some remodeled stores are now top performers, with customers traveling long distances just to relive the experience.The nostalgia push comes as Pizza Hut closes underperforming locations while rival Domino's continues expanding aggressively.Pizza Hut is also reviving its legendary “BOOK IT!” reading program, rewarding kids with pizza for summer reading goals.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast  as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Learn what happens when the executive accountable for data strategy is also the executive accountable for the business results that depend on it. Saugata Saha, President of S&P Global Market Intelligence and Chief Enterprise Data Officer at S&P Global, shares how he manages one of the world's largest financial data estates while driving business outcomes across public and private markets. He breaks down the four pillars of S&P Global's data strategy, the federated organizational model that connects data teams to business value, and why capturing ROI from AI requires deliberate workflow transformation. Key Moments Why Data Strategy Must Follow Business Strategy (04:57): Saugata challenges the idea that data and business strategy can run in parallel. Market trends, customer pain points, and existing capabilities must come first. Building an AI-Ready Financial Data Estate (15:10): Scale alone does not create intelligence. Saugata explains why semantic layers and graph databases are the hard work behind connected financial data. How AI Compresses Post-Acquisition Data Integration (18:29): Manual reconciliation of millions of records is no longer the only path. Discover how AI entity matching accelerated post-acquisition integration. The Federated Model That Connects Data to Value (22:49): Most large organizations either over-centralize data teams or leave them too embedded to scale. Saugata outlines the federated model that actually bridges both. Rethinking AI Productivity: From Marginal to Transformative (28:29): Most AI programs stop at training and tooling. Saugata explains why deliberately redesigning workflows is the missing step between AI investment and real ROI. Key Quotes “Data strategy and business strategy have to be very tightly connected. And if they're not, that's when value capture does not happen. In fact, I would go so far as to say data strategy actually follows from business strategy.” - Saugata Saha “Stop treating data as an afterthought or byproduct, but start thinking about data as a key ingredient for value creation and competitive advantage.” - Saugata Saha “We don't want everybody to become 10% more productive, because that's a little squishy. We want 10% of the people to become a hundred percent more productive so they can do other things.” - Saugata Saha “If a company can really use data at scale for better decision making, better client service, [and] better outcomes, that creates a lasting edge over the competition.” - Saugata Saha Mentions S&P Global Agrees to Acquire With Intelligence from Motive Partners for $1.8 Billion, Establishing Its Leadership in Private Markets Intelligence The Data & AI Chief: Why a Federated Data Team is Crucial for Business Value, with Dow Private Companies Wait Too Long to Go Public The Lex Fridman Podcast Guest Bios  Saugata serves as President of S&P Global Market Intelligence, leading the division's efforts to deliver essential insights and intelligence to clients worldwide. He is also S&P Global's Chief Enterprise Data Officer, responsible for driving innovation and excellence in the company's enterprise data strategy. Saugata is a member of S&P Global's Executive Leadership Team, contributing to the strategic direction and growth of the organization. Before joining S&P Global, Saugata was a consultant at McKinsey & Company's New York office, where he advised clients on strategy, mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance, and operational improvements across various industries, with a strong focus on financial services.

Agentúra S&P Global znížila Slovensku rating z A+ na A. Ministerstvo financií pokrčilo plecami. Ale to, čo sa stalo v ten istý piatok, je oveľa výrečnejšie: Litve rating zvýšili. Pred desiatimi rokmi malo Slovensko o dva stupne lepší rating ako Litva. Dnes je to naopak. V podcaste šéfredaktor TRENDU Ronald Ižip vysvetľuje, prečo táto výmena pozícií nie je náhoda.

Kevin Birn, oil analyst and head of carbon research with S&P Global, says the conflict in Iran has permanently altered global energy markets, pushing countries to prioritize energy security and supply diversification. Even if a peace deal is struck and the Strait of Hormuz reopens immediately, he argues it could still take months to reconnect damaged supply chains, clear vessel backlogs, and restore disrupted production across the region.The Hub is Canada's fastest-growing independent digital news outlet.Subscribe to our YouTube channel to get our latest videos: https://www.youtube.com/@TheHubCanadaSubscribe to The Hub's podcast feed to get our best content when you are on the go:https://tinyurl.com/3a7zpd7e (Apple) https://tinyurl.com/y8akmfn7 (Spotify) Want more Hub?

What if the greatest threat to your organization isn't lurking in the shadows but is accelerating right in front of you? In a world where AI can uncover vulnerabilities in minutes where it once took weeks, and where nearly two-thirds of organizations don't even know where all their data lives, the rules of cybersecurity are being rewritten in real time. The Emerging Battle for Data Protection reveals a stark reality: data is expanding faster than our ability to protect it, attackers are moving at machine speed, and the race to secure what matters most is no longer theoretical, it's happening now. In this episode, recorded live at RSA Conference 2026, Scott Crawford, Information Security Research Head, 451 Research / S&P Global and Todd Moore, Vice President Data Security Products at Thales, join us to discuss some of the key findings of the 2026 Thales Data Threat Report.

A few months ago, the oil market looked pretty serene. But the US-Iran war has upended global supplies and pushed energy security to the top of the policy agenda. Importers have realised they need to diversify their energy sources. What role will renewables have to play? And would a shift towards green energy just mean trading one bottleneck for another?

Gas ist die Brückentechnologie. Der saubere Brennstoff für den Übergang zu den erneuerbaren Energien. Vier Jahre nach dem russischen Überfall auf die Ukraine erlebt der Gasmarkt einen neuen Preisschock. Amerikanische LNG-Unternehmen profitieren, doch selbst sie sind besorgt, dass auffällt: Früher war Flüssiggas teuer, aber zuverlässig. Jetzt ist es teuer und unzuverlässig. Gast: Ira Joseph, Experte am Zentrum für Globale Energiepolitik der Columbia-Universität in New York.

Almost four hundred thousand American workers dropped out of the labor force in March, setting yet a new low in labor participation. Why? There are no jobs, a fact confirmed by both the employment estimate plus an utterly dismal hiring rate from JOLTS, one that rivaled January and February 2009. There's more, too.

This week's episode dives into the massive ripple effects of the Strait of Hormuz closure, which has resulted in Asia-US West Coast ocean spot rates surging by 29%. We explore how shippers are reacting to severe port congestion in Asian transshipment hubs by aggressively paying premium rates to secure desperately needed capacity for the future. Next, we discuss the recent financial boost for Echo Global Logistics, as debt rating agencies Moody's and S&P Global upgraded the 3PL's outlook from stable to positive. This upgraded outlook follows their acquisition of ITS Logistics, which analysts project will significantly improve Echo's free cash flow and boost its EBITDA by over $114 million. Finally, we cover the staggering $4 billion investment by Mercedes-Benz to upgrade its historic assembly plant in Vance, Alabama by 2030. This massive manufacturing expansion will lock in a vital, long-term pipeline of finished vehicle freight for Norfolk Southern, which handles the plant's inbound and outbound logistics.

We are now nearly a month into the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran. The conflict has lasted much longer than some energy experts initially expected — and it has built up an unprecedented crisis that is set to cascade from Asia to the rest of the world.On this episode of Shift Key, Rob chats in Houston with Karim Fawaz, an oil and refineries expert and a director in the energy and natural resources group at S&P Global Energy.Rob and Karim discuss whether the world is already locked into an energy crisis — even if Trump ends the war now. They also talk about why jet fuel has been particularly hard hit and how this crisis could reshape the long-term trajectory of the energy industry — and even of climate change itself.This episode was recorded on the sidelines of CERAWeek by S&P Global, the big annual energy conference in Houston, Texas.

In this episode, Mauricio sits down with Adam Reeds, co-founder and CEO of Ledn, to discuss his upbringing in Canada in a family shaped by his father's work in agricultural banking and his mother's career in education — a stable, functional financial backdrop that would later contrast sharply with Mauricio's Venezuelan experience and ultimately inspire the founding of Ledn. Adam breaks down Ledn's landmark $188 million Bitcoin-backed loan ABS (Asset-Backed Securities) bond — the first of its kind in history. He explains how the structure mirrors traditional finance vehicles used for auto loans, mortgages, and credit card debt, and why fitting Bitcoin-backed loans into that framework unlocks access to the $3 trillion US ABS market. He details why Ledn was uniquely positioned to pull this off after eight years of operating with zero client or loan losses. He also explains how that track record was essential for S&P Global to issue the first-ever investment grade rating on a Bitcoin product. Adam walks through the rigorous year-long process with S&P, including stress tests around Bitcoin volatility, liquidation thresholds, and systemic risk scenarios — many of which played out live as Bitcoin's price dropped from the 80s to the 60s during the deal's marketing period, ultimately validating Ledn's automated and non-discretionary processes in real time. Led by Jefferies as structuring agent, the deal attracted 15 institutional participants across 50 meetings, including a major reinsurance company, traditional credit funds, and hedge funds. It closed more than two times oversubscribed on the senior tranche and three times on the mezzanine. Adam explains how the bond's structure — with Fidelity as custodian and a blended rate of 7.2% — brings unprecedented transparency to Ledn's operations, allowing clients to see exactly where their Bitcoin sits and how the funding side of the business works. He also discusses how this model removes the arbitrary jurisdictional barriers of traditional lending by treating Bitcoin collateral from borrowers around the world as equal, regardless of geography. Looking ahead, Adam previews lower rates for borrowers, expansion into more US states, better functionality for business accounts at Ledn, and the rollout of Ledn's mobile app.

Escaladarea conflictului din Orientul Mijlociu reaprinde îngrijorările privind creșterea prețurilor alimentelor la nivel global, pe fondul perturbărilor din piețele de energie, îngrășăminte și transport maritim, arată o analiză publicată săptămâna trecută de S&P Global. Tensiunile din jurul Strâmtorii Hormuz, un punct strategic pentru comerțul mondial cu petrol, gaze naturale și îngrășăminte, au dus deja la majorarea prețurilor energiei și la scumpirea transportului maritim, factori care se transmit rapid în costurile inputurilor agricole. În scenariul unui conflict prelungit, până la o treime din comerțul global cu îngrășăminte ar putea fi afectat, ceea ce ar putea reduce marjele de profit ale fermierilor și ar putea influența deciziile de plantare în sezoanele următoare, orientând producătorii către culturi cu consum mai mic de inputuri. Potrivit estimărilor S&P Global, suprafața cultivată cu porumb în Italia ar putea scădea până la aproximativ 480.000 de hectare în anul de comercializare 2026-2027, de la 541.000 de hectare în anul precedent. Polonia, Franța și Spania ar putea înregistra scăderi ale suprafețelor cultivate cu 9%, 3% și, respectiv, 11%. Impactul imediat asupra diversificării producțiilor agricole este așteptat să fie limitat, deoarece mulți fermieri din emisfera nordică au făcut deja achizițiile de inputuri pentru campania de primăvară. Totuși, dacă tensiunile persistă, costurile mai ridicate ale energiei, îngrășămintelor și transportului ar putea influența producția agricolă și evoluția prețurilor alimentelor în perioada următoare, afectând relativa stabilitate care începuse să se profileze după perioadele de volatilitate generate de întreruperile lanțului de aprovizionare din Marea Neagră, cauzate de războiul din Ucraina.   O nouă platformă digitală accesibilă statelor membre pentru controlul siguranței și trasabilității alimentelor Comisia Europeană a lansat un nou instrument de inteligență artificială (IA), TraceMap, care oferă o trasabilitate mai bună la nivel transfrontalier, detectează mai rapid fraudele alimentare și alimentele contaminate și accelerează retragerea produselor nesigure de pe piață. „Este un progres care va revoluționa capacitatea Uniunii Europene de a reacționa la crizele în materie de siguranță alimentară și de a combate frauda alimentară. Va permite detectarea mai rapidă a fraudelor și a celor care încearcă să eludeze condițiile noastre de import”, a declarat Olivér Várhelyi, comisar european pentru sănătate și bunăstare animală. Platforma IA utilizează date din sistemele europene de siguranță alimentară și este accesibilă acum autorităților naționale din toate statele membre. Aceasta le permite să direcționeze mai eficient controalele și să efectueze investigații mai detaliate fără a necesita resurse suplimentare, potrivit unui comunicat al Executivului european. Instrumentul are și un rol preventiv, ajutând la identificarea rapidă a modelelor comerciale și a fluxurilor de producție, precum și la detectarea operatorilor suspecți. O versiune pilot a fost deja folosită în retragerile recente de lapte praf pentru sugari, produs cu ingrediente contaminate din China.   Proiecte europene pentru mediu și sisteme alimentare Peste o sută de milioane de euro se vor investi în șapte proiecte strategice selectate recent de Comisia Europeană, cu finanțare în cadrul programului LIFE. Acestea vor contribui la consolidarea stabilității economice, a sistemelor alimentare și a ecosistemelor naturale, anunță Executivul european într-un comunicat de presă. Proiectele se derulează în Finlanda, Franța, Grecia, Țările de Jos, Portugalia, Slovacia și Spania și vor sprijini punerea în aplicare a politicilor europene în domeniul mediului și al climei, cu accent pe reziliența climatică și a resurselor de apă, refacerea naturii, economia circulară și utilizarea durabilă a terenurilor. Se preconizează că aceste inițiative vor mobiliza investiții publice și private naționale suplimentare. Finanțarea celor șapte proiecte face parte dintr-un buget mai mare, de 5,43 miliarde de euro, alocat programului LIFE pentru perioada 2021-2027. În propunerile Comisiei pentru perioada post 2027 sunt incluse acțiuni LIFE integrate în diferitele componente ale viitorului cadru financiar multianual, în special în domeniul „tranziției curate și decarbonizării” al Fondului european pentru competitivitate, precum și în „mecanismul UE” din cadrul planurilor și programelor naționale și regionale.   Soluții digitale pentru servicii mai eficiente în mediul rural O inițiativă europeană finanțată prin programul Horizon Europe arată cum tehnologiile digitale pot transforma viața în comunitățile rurale. Proiectul AURORAL a dezvoltat o infrastructură digitală deschisă, care permite diferiților operatori locali, de la agricultură și transport școlar până la energie, să partajeze date în siguranță și să funcționeze mai eficient, se arată într-un material publicat pe platforma Comisiei Europene. Tehnologia a fost testată în șapte regiuni rurale europene și poate fi adaptată pentru numeroase servicii. Un exemplu vine din Laponia, unde o aplicație de transport școlar îi ajută pe părinți să verifice rapid dacă elevii au ajuns la școală, iar șoferii de autobuz primesc notificări automate dacă un copil lipsește sau trebuie preluat din alt loc. Sistemul este folosit în două localități finlandeze pentru peste 200 de elevi și a înlocuit metodele tradiționale, precum listele pe hârtie sau mesajele WhatsApp. Platforma digitală utilizează tehnologii avansate de conectivitate și analiză a datelor pentru a optimiza traseele și a reduce deplasările inutile. Potrivit coordonatorilor proiectului, acest lucru poate reduce consumul de energie și emisiile cu aproximativ 25% pe an. În nordul Italiei, producătorii de lactate utilizează sistemul pentru a monitoriza sănătatea și producția de lapte a efectivelor lor de bovine, prin schimbul de date în condiții de siguranță cu fermele învecinate. În Catalonia, tehnologia ajută la transformarea deșeurilor viticole în biomasă pentru energie regenerabilă. Proiectul a reunit 25 de organizații din 10 țări europene, combinând expertiza cercetătorilor, a dezvoltatorilor de tehnologie și a autorităților locale, și urmărește să stimuleze dezvoltarea unor „comunități inteligente”, care folosesc instrumente digitale pentru a sprijini economia locală și tranziția verde.

Today we had the honor of welcoming back Dr. Dan Yergin, Vice Chairman of S&P Global and Chairman of CERAWeek. Dan is a Pulitzer Prize-winning author, one of the most respected voices in energy, and a longtime authority on the intersection of energy, geopolitics, and the global economy. He is also the author of The Prize, The Quest, and The New Map, books that have helped shape how the industry understands energy history, markets, and geopolitical risk. With CERAWeek kicking off on March 23, we were delighted to hear Dan's latest insights on the evolving energy landscape, along with a preview of the key themes and conversations likely to shape this year's conference (current agenda available here). Our conversation began with Dan's perspective on how recent events in Iran have dramatically changed the backdrop heading into CERAWeek, and why the market may have been too complacent in the early days of the disruption. Dan shares his view that bad policy is often made under duress, reminds us that oil prices were already moving higher during the Gulf buildup, and explains why this moment should be viewed through a broader lens than just the formal start of the conflict itself. We explore the themes likely to shape CERAWeek this year, including the growing convergence of energy, power, and tech, the role of gas and electricity in the AI buildout, the importance of critical minerals and copper, infrastructure and permitting, nuclear, and the future direction of upstream oil and gas. We touch on Europe's continued energy vulnerability, the renewed importance of U.S. LNG, the prospect of Europe once again competing with Asia for cargoes, the unique risks that LNG faces through the Strait of Hormuz, and the broader implications for global gas markets. We discuss the range of outcomes for Gulf production shut-ins, why U.S. producers are unlikely to react to short-term price spikes, how insurance, freight costs, and physical security are shaping traffic through the Strait, and what the performance of the U.S. and Israeli militaries indicates about the scale of planning behind this operation. We also look at the longer-term questions underneath the current crisis, including the changing role of Gulf capital, the infrastructure limits around the Strait, the historic arc of Iran's posture in the region, and why the convergence of tech and energy may be one of the most important and constructive forces shaping the industry today. As always, it was an insightful and thought-provoking discussion. Many thanks to Dan for sharing his perspective and time with us all. Mike Bradley started the show by noting that the market conversation this week has once again been focused on U.S. strikes against Iran and the short- and intermediate-term fallout across commodities and equities. In crude, he highlighted that WTI has moved from the mid-$60s/bbl before the war to ~$85/bbl, after peaking near $120/bbl on Sunday night into Monday morning. The effective shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz has been the main driver for global oil prices, with Iraq, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia cutting production by 5–7 mmbpd due mostly to onshore oil storage constraints. WTI fell roughly $10/bbl in Tuesday's trading due to rumors of a potential coordinated global SPR release of 300–400 million barrels. This war in Iran, at this point, should be viewed differently than the Ukraine war from an oil, natural gas, and economic standpoint. Global oil prices peaked about one month into that conflict, EU natural gas prices peaked roughly six months in, and economic stats such as U.S. CPI and PPI were significantly higher than today, so the pain threshold heading into this war seems more manageable. On the Energy equity front, the Energy sector is flattish since the Iran war started, significantly underperforming oil prices, with investors choosing not to chase energy equities with the move h

Hubert Joly is a Harvard Business School lecturer and globally recognized leadership thinker focused on re-founding business around purpose and people. A former Chairman and CEO of Best Buy, he led one of the most celebrated corporate turnarounds of the past decade by rejecting cost-cutting playbooks in favor of purpose-driven strategy. At Harvard Business School, he co-leads flagship CEO programs and advises organizations on developing next-generation leaders. Joly serves on the boards of Johnson & Johnson and S&P Global, is a trustee of the New York Public Library, has been named among the world's top CEOs and management thinkers by HBR, Barron's, Glassdoor, and Thinkers50, and is the bestselling author of The Heart of Business. In this episode we discuss the following: When Hubert became CEO of Best Buy, he resisted the instinct to cut, cut, cut. Instead, as a first-time CEO, he chose to be a learn-it-all rather than a know-it-all—constantly asking, What's working? What's not? And what do you need? He then held himself to a strong “say-do” ratio, making sure his actions matched his words. I was also struck by the hierarchy he emphasized at Best Buy: people, business, finance. Of course a company has to make money. But when meetings start with finance or strategy, the implicit message is that people come second. Best Buy ultimately clarified this by defining its purpose as enriching lives through technology by addressing human needs. Another powerful idea was Hubert's reminder that culture changes faster than we think—if behavior changes first. If you want to be customer-centric, don't just talk about customers. Spend time with them. Behavior shapes culture surprisingly fast. Give a name or brand to our behavior change goals.

El ejército de Estados Unidos capturó la semana pasada en el Atlántico norte al petrolero Marinera, conocido hasta pocos días antes como Bella 1. A pesar de que navegaba con bandera rusa y de que lo hacía sin carga, el buque fue interceptado tras ser acusado de formar parte de la llamada “flota fantasma" que utilizan Gobiernos como los de Venezuela, Rusia e Irán para evadir sanciones internacionales. La operación fue ejecutada por un equipo de operaciones especiales que partió desde una base en Gran Bretaña, aprovechando que el navío, de grandes dimensiones, transitaba de camino a Rusia por un paso estratégico entre Escocia e Islandia. Esta acción se enmarca dentro del "bloqueo total y completo" anunciado el mes pasado por Donald Trump contra los petroleros vinculados a Venezuela. El Bella 1 ya contaba con sanciones previas desde 2024 por transportar crudo iraní. Al advertir que habían detectado su presencia, el capitán recibió órdenes de adentrarse en el Atlántico, apagó el sistema de identificación automática (AIS) y cambió el nombre y la bandera del buque para intentar despistar a las autoridades. Pero los guardacostas de EEUU no le perdieron de vista y fueron siguiéndole hasta que estuviese situado en un punto donde pudiera ser abordado con seguridad. El AIS es un transpondedor obligatorio que garantiza la seguridad marítima y permite que los barcos se vean entre sí. Apagarlo es una práctica común de las naves que operan en la sombra. La flota fantasma no ha hecho más que crecer en los últimos años y hoy representa un problema de primer orden. Según datos de S&P Global y TankerTrackers, existen cerca de mil barcos que transportan petróleo y derivados objeto de sanciones. Estos buques suelen tener más de 20 años de antigüedad, carecen de seguros occidentales y utilizan banderas de conveniencia de países con regulaciones marítimas muy laxas como Gabón o Camerún. Además, emplean técnicas sofisticadas como la falsificación de coordenadas GPS y realizan maniobras arriesgadas como transferir crudo a de barco a barco en alta mar para ocultar el origen del petróleo. En el caso de Venezuela, aproximadamente el 70% de sus exportaciones dependen de estos buques de la flota fantasma. El Gobierno estadounidense parece que por fin se ha puesto en serio a combatir esta lacra, pero sólo los que se dirigen o salen de Venezuela, obviamente como herramienta del presión para el actual gobierno de Delcy Rodríguez. Aunque las potencias occidentales llevan años intentado asfixiar la logística de la que se valen estos barcos mediante sanciones a empresas de gestión y servicios de suministro de combustible (bunkering), la flota ha seguido funcionando debido a la demanda de países como China e India, que aprovechan los descuentos del crudo sancionado. La captura del Marinera supone un cambio de estrategia. Ahora deben contemplar también el abordaje directo, lo que sólo puede leerse como una advertencia clara para que en Caracas se percaten que el bloqueo va en serio. Pero si solo se queda para Venezuela no servirá de mucho, la flota seguirá operando y, al mismo tiempo, proporcionando recursos a dictaduras como la rusa o la iraní.
