On a podcast with Emilie Steckenborn of LVMH China, she insisted that I meet with Robert Foye to discuss a podcast appearance. She insisted. After 2 minutes on a call with Robert, I moved from chatting to scheduling. Despite conversations on the web about how the trade should be more innovative and rethink, Robert feels you need experience to move forward. How can you innovate without knowing the pitfalls of what came before?  With Robert Foye, it is about leadership and adaptability. Hear it here. Robert Foye doesn't just bridge the world between Coca-Cola and Cabernet—he's crossed it, mapped it, and poured a glass for the rest of us. If you think multinational beverage leadership and the romance of wine are oil and water, Foye's the proof that sometimes, opposites blend perfectly. In this illuminating episode of Wine Talks, listeners embark on a journey through the tumultuous cycles and fascinating nuances of the wine business, as told by a leader who's helmed both Accolade Wines and Treasury Wine Estates. You'll learn why wine endures as a cultural ambassador, even as trends and consumption habits shift; how the COVID-19 pandemic didn't just pause the industry but rewrote its rules (and reawakened dormant talents at both the kitchen table and the boardroom). Foye deftly uncorks the challenges of marketing wine in today's saturated landscape—offering a rare look at what works, and what falls flat, on the shelf and online. He'll walk you through what sets wine apart from other consumer packaged goods, exploring the rich stories and personal connections that make sharing a bottle an experience unlike any other. Whether he's recounting tales of adapting wine language for the next generation, weighing in on the role of private equity investments, or describing the unexpected kinship between a seasoned wine executive and the humble “second cheapest bottle,” Foye brings an insider's wit and worldliness to every anecdote. You'll come away not just with a deeper understanding of today's wine market, but with a renewed sense of why, through its ups and downs, wine persists—linking land, language, and laughter with each pour. This conversation will leave you thirsty, not just for your next glass, but for the stories behind every label. ✅ Ever wonder why wine is so much more than just a drink? ✅ Dive into the art, business, and soul behind every bottle with host Paul Kalemkiarian and guest Robert Foye. ✅ From global industry shakeups to the magic of sharing a special glass, this episode of Wine Talks uncorks what makes wine irresistible—and why its story is far from over. ✅ Whether you're a wine lover or business buff, you'll leave with a new appreciation (and craving for the next pour).

https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk/raf/ Sean interviews previous host Kevin McDonnell. Kevin shares his journey from a farm in rural Ireland to becoming a multi-millionaire property investor. He reveals his painful mistakes buying off-plan properties abroad that left him £100,000+ in debt and how he transformed his life through property strategies like rent-2-rent. If you haven’t heard Kev’s story already, this episode will leave you inspired and informed. If you’d like to learn more from Kevin, he has written multiple books on property investing, including No Money Down Property Investing and Multiple Streams of Property Income. KEY TAKEAWAYS Kevin began with zero property knowledge, making mistakes by investing in off-plan properties in Europe that put him over £100,000 in debt, this is why proper education before investing is crucial. After hitting rock bottom at age 35, living in a shared house and in debt, Kevin discovered rent-2-rent and deal packaging strategies that allowed him to become debt-free without needing significant capital. By moving into his first rent-to-rent property and subletting the other rooms, Kevin eliminated his own housing costs while simultaneously generating income to service his debt. Kevin emphasises that mindset and environment are critical success factors; surrounding yourself with positive, like-minded people creates opportunities that reading books alone cannot provide. From his initial failures, Kevin built an 18+ million pound portfolio with over 100 properties, 18 businesses, and several bestselling books, demonstrating the power of consistent action. Kevin's success formula is to believe in yourself and take the first step, surround yourself with like-minded people who share your vision and take massive action without fear of rejection. BEST MOMENTS "I realised that property was the thing that put me in debt. But actually, the only thing that could get me outta debt was property." "Most people don't wanna change. They're full-time in a job, and they're building their boss's dream. But if you put as much effort into yourself as you do into building your boss's dream, you'd become successful." "If you've read my book three times and it's not made you a millionaire, reading it a fourth time's not gonna make any difference. But maybe working with the guy who wrote it would." "I'm not trying to buy a hundred houses. I never did. I just wanted to buy one. I now own over a hundred, but I only ever started to buy one."

Dr. Aldrich walked us through their smart design improvements including flat-bottom construction, interrupted gussets for better shelf stability, and the impressive "apex closure" Velcro seal that makes resealing pet food bags significantly easier.We also got a look at Nulo's newest products: a small breed beef and sweet potato recipe and their new adult lamb formula. This brief segment perfectly illustrates how packaging innovation can enhance consumer experience in meaningful ways beyond the product itself.As Dr. Aldrich notes, pet food manufacturers have just 5-6 seconds to communicate their value proposition to shoppers amid the visual noise of retail environments. Watch to see how Nulo is meeting this challenge!

L'origine di questa storia di vita e di impresa risale all'immediato dopoguerra. Sin dall'inizio Capardoni (a Milano e poi nell'hinterland) si è specializzata nel packaging cosmetico e nel tempo ha ampliato la gamma dei prodotti e dei servizi offerti: packaging completi per make-up, skincare, profumeria, home fragrances e cosmesi. Oggi l'azienda è diventata gruppo e, dopo una recente fusione, ha ulteriormente allargato il raggio d'azione. Il presidente, Stefano Meazza, ripercorre questa lunga storia.

They highlighted the increasing evidence of how micro and nanoplastics are negatively impacting upon the human body. They released a letter in support from 30 leading environmental justice groups, including NAACP New York, Hispanic Federation, and Hip Hop Caucus.

In recent episodes of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we've heard how some of the biggest companies across sectors are navigating the changing sustainability landscape. In today's episode, we sit down with one of the world's largest chemical and plastic production companies, Dow.  “Sustainability used to be something nice to have, but now it's a key part of the business strategy,” Han Zhang, Ph.D., Dow's Global Sustainability Director, Packaging and Specialty Plastics, tells us during S&P Global's CERAWeek energy conference in Houston. This is due to regulations, commitments from brand owners, and consumer demand, he says. “All of this creates a lot of opportunities to companies who can develop those sustainable solutions.”  Dow has sustainability targets related to climate change, transforming waste, and advancing a circular economy where products are reused or recycled. Han says the company sees decarbonization and circularity as interconnected issues that can't be treated in silos.  "We cannot decarbonize the society without circular plastic, and we cannot achieve a circular economy” with higher carbon emissions, Han says. “At Dow as a company, we're tackling both in the same lens and I highly encourage the industry to do the same.”  Listen to our episode, What's at stake in UN plastic pollution treaty talks Listen to our episode, What companies are doing to address the plastic pollution problem Learn more about S&P Global's Energy Transition data  This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1, a part of S&P Global.           Copyright ©2025 by S&P Global           DISCLAIMER     By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

Jeff Yorzyk has over 20 years of experience in sustainability across a broad range of sectors, and has held leadership roles in both commercial and consulting companies spanning program development, strategic management systems, product sustainability and life cycle assessment. Based in Berlin, Germany, HelloFresh is the leading meal kit provider in the world, operating in 14 markets. As director of sustainability for HelloFresh US, Jeff oversees packaging lifecycle management, operational and supply chain sustainability and regulatory compliance and permitting. Jeff also has participated in building the profession of sustainability, leading sustainability nonprofits such as the International Society of Sustainability Professionals (ISSP) in the development of the first professional credential for sustainability practitioners, and strategic partnering with GBCI for its independent delivery. Jeff Joins Sustainable Nation to Discuss: How HelloFresh addresses packaging impacts Life cycle emissions of HelloFresh compare to restaurant or supermarket trips Addressing food waste in production Advice and recommendations for sustainability professionals Jeff's Final Five Questions Responses: What is one piece of advice you would give other sustainability professionals that might help them in their careers?  I have two here. Number one is be ready to do anything, get dirty. In my own professional journey, I found that if I took the tasks or the projects that people didn't want to do because they looked boring or hard or just not exciting to people, they led me to some of the most exciting work that I ever did. So sometimes something that looks boring or just kind of a grind at the beginning actually turns into something really incredible. Never be afraid to take those things and, in fact, seek them out. Number two is keep a journal and ask yourself if you're making the impact you want through your career. It's a really broad field, and that's a good question to be asking ourselves regularly. I started my career in environmental consulting in the 1990s. That's really what we had available to us. We didn't have this thing called sustainability, but as I moved forward in my career, I noticed this thing called sustainability evolving and really was able to direct myself into it. So pay attention, keep a journal, and then take the jobs that people don't want because they don't have to be dirty jobs.Those things will usually lead you to some of your greatest successes.  What are you most excited about right now in the world of sustainability?  In a word, it's mainstream. To put a little more color behind that, we're in a fascinating period right now where companies are being asked to make ambitious goals, and they're also being really held accountable to achieve them. We've moved beyond this period of lofty goals and even, to some extent, talking about moonshots. I think for some of us in the field that has been a little bit confusing because the moonshot was this inspiring thing that we were looking to gather people around, and I think there's still room for that. But we're being held accountable as companies to have realistic plans underneath them and to convince people that they're achievable. These high expectations are coming together with these enhanced greenwashing laws to really create this interesting space for companies. I know this has created side effects like what they call green hushing and companies talking less about what they're doing, but I think it's pushing us in the right direction for us to really be a lot more realistic, but still quite ambitious.  What is one book you'd recommend sustainability leaders read?  I'm currently reading a book called the Customer is the Planet. It's quite new and really it has a nice mapping of environmental and social issues against the European ESRs standards. Anything that makes the European ESRs easier to digest and actually put in my brain is welcome to me. If you haven't read Natural Capitalism or The Natural Step or even Our Stolen Future, which are books from a previous century, they're fantastic and they're really great foundational reading.  What are some of your favorite resources or tools that really help you in your work?  I got my MBA in 2002 and that was my pivot from environmental consulting into sustainability. Right about that time, this guy named Joel Makower was starting up this website called GreenBiz. It's now called Trellis. They pivoted into a really network based approach. That has always been one of the key sources that I turn to. That newsletter has been very useful for me to observe things. You watch these things over time, you start to see trends, patterns, you see how things transform. It's really been a fantastic resource. Then LinkedIn. It took me a while to get the algorithm working for me, but it feeds a lot of really good content to me these days. I highly recommend both of those.  Where can our listeners go to learn more about you and the work being done at HelloFresh?  The HelloFresh website has a sustainability section. You can also go to our Instagram site @hellofresh. They really are great at putting some fun videos and reels in there and TikTok. They've done a great job, it actually gets quite funny. Then of course you can find me on LinkedIn under Jeff Yorzyk.
