The Royal Mint private wealth consultant Stuart O'Reilly tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that gold's core drivers remain firmly in place even after its pullback from record highs, citing geopolitical tensions, shifting global alliances, and sustained central bank buying since Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Central banks, he says, increasingly treat gold as a political hedge in uncertain times. O'Reilly broke down gold's role as a portfolio diversifier: "It's a good diversifier that doesn't drag too much on a portfolio when times are good in the stock market, but can help shield some of the shocks in a bear market." He also flagged a shift in who's buying: more younger investors and women turning to physical gold, alongside industry moves toward recycled gold and stronger provenance standards. O'Reilly closed by outlining gold's three core portfolio roles: diversification, liquidity and long-term returns; and the vaulting options available to investors holding physical bullion.

M2i Global CEO Alberto Rosende joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's signing of a non-binding strategic collaboration agreement with Evrensel Impact Group (EIG) to explore the identification, evaluation, and potential development of critical mineral projects across Africa. Rosende said the collaboration will leverage EIG's expanding network of government relationships, strategic partnerships, and commercial engagements to help identify opportunities aligned with M2i Global's critical minerals strategy. The agreement establishes a framework for evaluating and advancing future projects across the continent. EIG has recently expanded its presence in Mozambique, Nigeria, Botswana, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Zambia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and the Central African Republic, while also pursuing new opportunities in Sierra Leone, Ghana, Togo, Cameroon, and other African jurisdictions. According to Rosende, EIG's discussions with governments have revealed strong demand for experienced international partners capable of delivering responsible resource development, long-term investment, and commercially viable critical minerals projects, creating opportunities that align with M2i Global's growth objectives. The collaboration is non-binding and serves as a strategic framework for future cooperation. Any specific commercial transactions or project agreements will be subject to further due diligence, negotiations, definitive documentation, and customary regulatory approvals. #proactiveinvestors #m2iglobalinc #otcqb #mtwo #SecurityMatters #CriticalMinerals #ResourceDevelopment #EnergyTransition #StrategicPartnership #CriticalMaterials #MiningNews #SustainableMining

American Rare Earths CEO Mark Wall joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company's NASDAQ listing strategy, confirming the board remains committed to securing a U.S. listing while evaluating the most effective pathway to maximize shareholder value. Wall said the company is assessing several options, including a NASDAQ compliance listing, a U.S. initial public offering (IPO) with a concurrent NASDAQ listing, and other U.S. listing structures suited to a developer of strategic critical minerals assets. A leading North American financial advisor has been engaged to evaluate transaction structures, market timing, and investor positioning. In preparation for a U.S. listing, American Rare Earths is advancing its PCAOB audit with BDO Audit Pty Ltd and converting the Halleck Creek mineral resource to the SEC's Regulation S-K 1300 reporting standard. Management said these steps will position the company to move quickly once a preferred listing structure has been selected. Wall also highlighted the strategic importance of Executive Order 14415, recently signed by the U.S. President, which aims to strengthen domestic critical mineral supply chains by limiting waivers that have allowed defense contractors to source certain materials from foreign suppliers. The company believes the order enhances demand for domestically produced rare earth materials and strengthens the investment case for its Halleck Creek Rare Earths Project in Wyoming. Management said a NASDAQ listing would better align the company with its U.S.-based flagship asset, broaden access to U.S. institutional investors, improve market visibility, and support ongoing engagement with government agencies involved in defense, energy, and advanced manufacturing supply chains. #proactiveinvestors #americanrareearthslimited #asx #arr #otcqx #arrnf #adr #amrry #wyomingrareinc #HalleckCreek #RareEarths #CriticalMinerals #NASDAQ #HalleckCreek #DefenseSupplyChain #EnergyTransition #Mining #Wyoming #MiningNews

Medicus Pharma Chief Medical Officer Dr Faisal Mehmud joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's receipt of Investigational New Drug (IND) authorization from the United Arab Emirates Department of Health – Abu Dhabi for its PRECISION-E2 Phase 2a clinical trial evaluating Teverelix® in women with moderate-to-severe symptomatic endometriosis. Mehmud said the authorization follows the Department of Health's comprehensive review of the company's chemistry, manufacturing and controls (CMC), non-clinical, clinical, and safety data, resulting in approval for the study to proceed, subject to final site-specific Institutional Review Board and ethics approvals. The PRECISION-E2 trial is a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 2a study that will enroll approximately 84 women across multiple investigational sites in the UAE. The study will evaluate the pharmacodynamics, safety, tolerability, clinical activity, and exploratory genomic biomarkers of Teverelix®, a long-acting GnRH antagonist. Management believes the study marks an important milestone in its women's health strategy and positions Teverelix® among the first genomics-guided precision medicine programs designed to identify women with endometriosis who are most likely to benefit from targeted therapy. Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting approximately one in ten women of reproductive age worldwide, and Medicus believes the PRECISION-E2 study could help advance a more personalized treatment approach for patients with moderate-to-severe disease. #proactiveinvestors #nasdaq #mdcx #tsxv #mdcx #pharma #ClinicalTrials #Phase2 #Teverelix #Endometriosis #ClinicalTrials #WomensHealth #PrecisionMedicine #Biotech #DrugDevelopment #HealthcareInnovation #Phase2Trial

Alkane Resources Ltd (ASX: ALK, OTC: ALKEF) managing director and CEO Nic Earner talked with Proactive about the substantial increase in the Mineral Resource at the Storheden gold deposit in northern Sweden and its potential to become a satellite mining area for the nearby Björkdal operation. The updated estimate comprises an Indicated Resource of 1.07 million tonnes grading 2.51 grams per tonne gold for 87,000 ounces and an Inferred Resource of 1.85 million tonnes grading 2.11 grams per tonne for 125,000 ounces. This takes Storheden's total contained gold resource to approximately 212,000 ounces. The update also delivers Storheden's first Indicated Resource, while inferred contained gold has increased by around 26% from the previous estimate of 99,000 ounces. Earner said the increase in both resource size and grade supported Alkane Resources' strategy of identifying supplementary ore sources capable of raising the overall grade processed through the Björkdal mill. Björkdal processes around 1.4 million tonnes per annum and produced slightly more than 41,000 ounces of gold in the previous year. Alkane Resources is allocating capital during FY2027 to begin development towards Storheden, with the company targeting potential mining from around 2029, subject to receiving the necessary environmental permit. Earner also discussed recent high-grade drilling, the narrow-vein nature of the mineralisation and ongoing investment in development, exploration, equipment and tailings capacity at Björkdal.

lika PLC (AIM:IKA, OTCQX:ILIKF, FRA:I8A) CEO Graeme Purdy joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss commercial progress across the company's Stereax and Goliath solid-state battery programmes. Purdy said Ilika has reached a significant milestone with Stereax, having recognised around £100,000 in revenue from the sale of commercial-grade electrodes to Cirtec for incorporation into the M300 product, due to launch later this year. A second income stream through product royalties is expected once devices reach end customers. "We have actually transitioned into a product revenue generating business," he said. On Goliath, Purdy said 10Ah prototype cells have been shipped to OEM and commercial customers for evaluation. While originally developed for electric vehicles, the prototypes have attracted strong interest from defence and e-bike markets, with Ilika now prioritising commercialisation in those non-EV segments. Key milestones to watch over the next 12 to 18 months include deeper Cirtec collaboration, Stereax integration into medical device platforms, additional Goliath commercial agreements, early non-EV revenues and progress towards Ilika's first licensing agreement.

Critical Mineral Resources PLC (LSE:CMRS, FRA:98J) CEO Charlie Long tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that recent drilling at the Agadir Melloul copper project in Morocco confirms the mineralised system continues, building on the company's understanding of the resource despite normal variability between drill holes. Long said the focus is on building a continuous, mineable resource rather than judging individual holes in isolation; the company's internal estimate already stands at around 25,000 tonnes of copper. Ahead of the maiden JORC resource, work is progressing in parallel on metallurgical testing, pilot plant preparation, process flow sheet design, plant site selection, tailings planning and water management studies. Detailed mine scheduling will follow once the formal resource model is in place. Long said the maiden JORC resource will be a key milestone for institutional investors and specialist mining funds, even as the company remains confident in its internal model: "We know we've got a resource already... the ultimate size of the resource is going to grow over time. It's just a matter of drilling." Watch the full interview for more on Critical Mineral Resources' strategy, upcoming milestones and development plans for Agadir Melloul.

EMV Capital (AIM:EMVC, FRA:NTK1) CEO Dr Ilian Iliev and AMR Bio chair Nigel Brooksby joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss progress on XF-73, the antimicrobial drug candidate advancing towards Phase 3, and the milestones that could define the company's next stage of growth. Iliev said EMV Capital is supporting AMR Bio through its Venture Build programme, combining financial backing with hands-on value creation, and believes the next nine to twelve months could represent an important inflection point for the asset. Brooksby outlined preparations for a Type B meeting with the FDA to discuss the final Phase 3 programme, saying regulatory alignment would significantly de-risk development and increase pharma industry interest. He highlighted XF-73's advantages over the current standard of care, Mupirocin: "XF is the new gold standard, will deliver a 90% reduction in Staphylococcus aureus in just four doses over 24 hours. And we've clearly demonstrated zero resistance after over 55 passages. So it's not just an incremental improvement, it's a different weapon entirely." Iliev added that reaching Phase 3 readiness within two years of formation would validate EMV Capital's Venture Build model, with capital-light funding approaches already under consideration for the Phase 3 programme.

Noble Helium COO Dermot O'Keeffe talked with Proactive about the operational preparations for drilling the Kinambo wells at the North Rukwa Project in Tanzania. O'Keeffe said the company had completed nearly all the work planned ahead of drilling. The contracted truck-mounted rig is expected to begin mobilisation shortly before moving to the first well location around the middle of August. Once on site, it will be rigged up and undergo final inspections before drilling begins. Road construction, camp development and equipment preparation are also nearing completion. Noble Helium has built accommodation, catering, power, water and communications infrastructure to support up to 56 people during the campaign. The workforce will include the rig crew, Noble Helium personnel, medical and catering staff, equipment operators, drivers and specialists involved in well logging and sampling. O'Keeffe explained that the remote location made reliable road access and careful logistics particularly important. Long-lead items, including casing, wellhead equipment, drilling fluids, cementing products, spare parts and specialised testing equipment, are now in Tanzania and ready to be mobilised. The wells are designed to test shallow and deep helium-bearing structures identified through 3D seismic reprocessing and gravity work. Noble Helium is currently targeting a late-August spud, subject to final commissioning and normal operational contingencies. Visit Proactive's YouTube channel for more videos.

FireFly Metals Ltd managing director Steve Parsons talked with Proactive about the company's progress at the Green Bay Copper-Gold Project during the June 2026 quarter, including high-grade drilling results, resource development and preparations for an upcoming economic study. Parsons said drilling at the project continued to deliver some of the strongest copper and gold intersections recorded on the property. He explained that FireFly Metals is undertaking infill drilling to convert more of the approximately 80-million-tonne mineral resource into the measured and indicated categories. Discussing the project's high-grade Core Zone, Parsons said it contained nearly 20 million tonnes at close to 4% copper equivalent. He described Green Bay as primarily a copper orebody with an additional gold credit, noting that copper represented most of the contained metal value. The updated resource is expected to support a preliminary economic assessment and scoping study for an upscaled restart of production at Green Bay. FireFly Metals is targeting completion of the study in August 2026, with the high-grade Core Zone expected to play an important role during the early years of the proposed mine plan. Parsons also highlighted the company's strong funding position, with approximately A$196.4 million in cash and liquid investments at the end of the quarter. Six underground drill rigs were operating at Green Bay, while drilling and targeting activities were also progressing around nearby deposits and regional exploration areas, including Rambler, East Mine and Tilt Cove.

Beetaloo Energy Managing Director Alex Underwood joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's progress toward first gas sales, which are expected in the fourth quarter of 2026 as it transitions into pilot production in Australia's Beetaloo Basin. Underwood said the company's gas processing plant remains on schedule and on budget, with construction completed without any safety or environmental incidents. Beetaloo has already drilled and hydraulically fractured three horizontal wells and has received regulatory approval to commence pilot gas production. The company also recently completed a seismic survey over its western basin acreage, acquired several years ago, which is estimated to contain approximately 20 trillion cubic feet (TCF) of recoverable gas. Interpretation of the new seismic data is now underway to help define future horizontal drilling locations across the property. Financially, Underwood said Beetaloo is in its strongest position to date, with approximately A$125 million in available liquidity, including cash and undrawn credit facilities. He added that the company has no near-term plans to raise additional equity. Beetaloo has also entered a funding agreement with Territory Sands to establish a local sand supply for future hydraulic fracturing operations, with deliveries expected to begin next year. Beyond upstream operations, Beetaloo is advancing plans to support data centre infrastructure near Darwin after being awarded strategic land by the Northern Territory government. The company has signed an MOU with Halliburton related to power generation equipment and is working with third parties on a pipeline to transport larger gas volumes to Darwin. Underwood emphasized that the data centre initiative complements Beetaloo's core gas business, with external partners expected to provide much of the capital and expertise for downstream infrastructure. #proactiveinvetors #beetalooenergy #asx #btl #energy #NaturalGas #Energy #Australia #BeetalooBasin #EnergyTransition #OilAndGas #Infrastructure #DataCentres #EnergyNews

AOTI CEO Dr. Mike Griffiths joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss a major regulatory milestone after the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a proposed Local Coverage Determination (LCD) supporting the use of topical oxygen therapy for diabetic foot ulcers that have failed to heal after four weeks of optimized care. Griffiths said that following a 45-day public comment period, CMS is expected to finalize the LCD within the next year. Once approved, the policy would establish Medicare coverage and reimbursement criteria for AOTI's TWO2® intermittent topical wound oxygen therapy, significantly expanding patient access across the United States. Management believes the final LCD will be transformative, providing access to approximately 69 million Medicare beneficiaries, including a population with high rates of diabetes and diabetic foot ulcers. The company also expects the decision to accelerate reimbursement across Medicaid, commercial insurers, and managed care organizations, substantially reducing reimbursement risk. AOTI currently holds an estimated 75% share of the topical oxygen therapy market, driven by its TWO2® platform, which the company says is the only intermittent topical oxygen wound therapy available. Multiple peer-reviewed clinical studies have demonstrated improved long-term healing outcomes compared with continuous topical oxygen therapy and other advanced wound care treatments. The company believes it is well positioned to capitalize on the expanded opportunity, with an existing commercial infrastructure spanning 26 states and reaching approximately 86% of the U.S. population. Management estimates its current serviceable market represents a $400 million revenue opportunity, while broader CMS-driven reimbursement could expand the addressable market to approximately $26 billion over the longer term. Griffiths said the proposed CMS decision represents a significant milestone that could drive wider adoption of TWO2® therapy while improving access for Medicare patients suffering from chronic diabetic foot ulcers. #proactiveinvestors #aoti #aim #topicalwoundoxygen #two2 #woundcare #Healthcare #MedTech #OxygenTherapy #DiabeticFootUlcers #WoundCare #MedicalTechnology #HealthcareInnovation #TopicalOxygenTherapy #MedTech #Healthcare

Purepoint Uranium Group CEO Chris Frostad joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss results from the first phase of the company's 2026 summer drill program at the Dorado Project, where the final drill hole intersected a broad interval of strong radioactivity at the Nova Discovery. The final hole before a scheduled mid-program break, NV26-11, intersected 5.6 metres of continuous radioactivity averaging 11,730 counts per second (cps), with a peak reading of 53,300 cps, according to downhole probe measurements. Laboratory assays are pending, but management said the radiometric response is consistent with the high-grade uranium mineralization previously identified at Nova. Frostad said the latest results provide another important data point supporting the company's geological model. He added that the continuity and strength of the radioactive interval will help refine exploration priorities when drilling resumes following the two-week break. The first phase of the summer program tested both the Q23 and Nova target areas. While the initial three holes encountered localized radioactive intervals that improved the company's understanding of the project's geology and structural controls, hole NV26-11 delivered the broadest continuous radioactive interval of the program within a strongly hematite-altered granitic gneiss and pelitic gneiss contact. During the drilling pause, Purepoint will complete detailed geological logging, structural interpretation, and geochemical analysis before determining the next phase of drilling aimed at further defining the continuity and orientation of the Nova mineralized system. #proactiveinvestors #purepointuraniumgroup #tsxv #ptu #otcqb #ptuuf #Uranium #AthabascaBasin #UraniumExploration #SaskatchewanMining #DoradoProject #SaskatchewanMining #Mining #Drilling #ResourceDevelopment #MiningNews

Fox Tungsten CEO Steve Gray joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company's fully funded 20,000-metre diamond drill program at the Fox Project in British Columbia, where drilling has intersected visible scheelite mineralization across multiple target areas. Gray said that while analytical assay results are still pending, visual observations from the drilling campaign are encouraging and suggest the exploration program is successfully expanding the project's mineralized footprint. The company has also identified several previously unrecognized parallel mineralized zones at the Fox North target. Visible scheelite has been observed in 100% of the exploration holes completed at Fox North, as well as in all seven reverse circulation resource expansion holes drilled to date, providing further confidence in the continuity of mineralization. Fox Tungsten continues to operate two diamond drill rigs as part of the ongoing 20,000-metre program. Initial assay results are expected in the coming weeks and will provide further insight into the grade and extent of the mineralized zones. Management believes the early drilling results reinforce the potential to expand the Fox Project's tungsten resource and further define one of North America's emerging critical minerals assets. #proactiveinvestors #happycreekmineralsltd #tsxv #foxt #Tungsten #FoxTungsten #TungstenProject #Mining #CriticalMinerals #Tungsten #BritishColumbia #Drilling #ResourceDevelopment #MiningNews #Scheelite

Host: Lalo Solorzano Guest(s): Ashley Arnold Length: 13:20 Presented by: Global Training Center Summary In this final installment of the Simply Trade tips run with Ashley Arnold, Lalo Solorzano and Ashley turn to a foundational question with growing consequences: who truly owns import compliance? As enforcement intensifies and importer-of-record expectations receive more attention, the conversation examines why relying entirely on a customs broker is no longer a workable compliance strategy. Ashley explains that brokers remain essential partners, but importers must understand and retain responsibility for tariff classification, customs valuation, country of origin, recordkeeping, and supply-chain visibility. The discussion also explores why foreign importers of record may face tougher vetting, how increased entry volume can expose weak processes, and why service providers need clearer accountability and a reliable paper trail. The episode moves beyond theory with practical advice: establish ownership for classification decisions, use ACE reports to review entry activity, investigate data that looks unusual, and create a recurring audit cadence instead of waiting for Customs to ask questions. The message is direct: compliance cannot be treated as a one-time setup or delegated without oversight. Importers that stay engaged, document their decisions, and work proactively with their brokers will be better positioned to identify errors early and respond confidently when scrutiny increases. Main Topic / Discussion Lalo and Ashley discuss the responsibilities attached to serving as an importer of record in a heightened enforcement environment. They explain why importers must actively oversee classification, valuation, country of origin, entry data, and recordkeeping—even when a customs broker manages the filing process. The conversation also examines increased scrutiny of foreign importers of record, the growing pressure placed on brokers and surety providers, and the importance of using ACE data to identify inconsistencies before they become larger compliance problems.

The FDA finalized its guidance on Scientific Information on Unapproved Uses (SIUU) in January 2025, giving pharmaceutical and biotech companies a framework for proactive off-label communication with healthcare providers. Yet many medical affairs organizations are still navigating what it means in practice. In this episode, Peg Crowley-Nowick, PhD, MBA talks with Josh Bryson, PhD, Head of U.S. Medical Affairs and Evidence Generation at Argenx, about the real-world implications for medical affairs strategy. Josh and Peg examine what the FDA guidance permits, the data integrity and publication requirements that must be in place, and how the shift from reactive to proactive scientific exchange changes HCP engagement. They also discuss how SIUU raises the bar for evidence generation, driving companies to think more deliberately about data quality, study design, and publication strategy in order to meet the criteria the guidance requires. Medical Science Liaisons and Medical Affairs leaders will find this conversation directly relevant to how they approach both field engagement and evidence planning. A practical conversation for medical affairs professionals looking to understand how the FDA off-label communication guidance reshapes communications strategy and the evidence needed to support it.

Trust Stamp Executive Director and Project Lead Berta Pappenheim joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's selection as a direct participant in the Important Project of Common European Interest on Advanced Semiconductor Technologies (IPCEI AST), supported by Malta Enterprise. Pappenheim said the IPCEI AST is a major European initiative designed to strengthen the continent's sovereignty, security, and resilience across the advanced semiconductor value chain. The program brings together industry leaders and research organizations to accelerate the development and commercialization of next-generation chip technologies. Funding for the initiative is still being finalized, following the success of the earlier IPCEI ME/CT program, which mobilized up to €8.1 billion in public investment across 14 EU member states. Trust Stamp will contribute through two key collaborative projects. The first focuses on developing a secure semiconductor identity platform that links verified human identities with hardware-based device authentication using technologies such as physically unclonable functions (PUFs) and Trust Stamp's biometric tokenization. The platform is designed to help prevent unauthorized access to critical communications, IoT, and safety-critical systems. The second collaboration will explore AI-assisted processing of neural signals generated by an emerging biosignal chip platform, while integrating secure hardware authentication to protect sensitive data and strengthen device security. Pappenheim said the company's participation has been made possible through the support of Malta Enterprise, which is helping position Malta and its technology sector within Europe's strategic semiconductor ecosystem while fostering collaboration between industry and academic partners. Management believes the project strengthens Trust Stamp's position at the intersection of advanced semiconductors, artificial intelligence, secure digital identity, and biometric security, supporting the development of next-generation trusted technology solutions. #proactiveinvestors #truststamp #nasdaq #idai #IdentityTech #Semiconductors #ArtificialIntelligence #Cybersecurity #DigitalIdentity #Biometrics #EuropeanUnion #IPCEI #Innovation #Technology

Ethical Screening managing director Mike Head and sales and client manager Jonny White joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss the JURY Global High Dividend UCITS ETF (LSE:JURY) and explain how it combines an income-focused investment strategy with rigorous human rights screening. White explained why the ETF goes beyond traditional ESG investing, using a transparent, evidence-based methodology developed over more than 30 years to exclude companies linked to the most serious human rights violations. Rather than relying on ESG ratings, the approach draws on internationally recognised frameworks, including the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. Head also discussed research suggesting many sustainable investment funds continue to hold companies that some investors may not expect, arguing there is growing demand for a more robust approach to ethical investing. The interview also explores the fund's commitment to directing 10% of its management fee to humanitarian initiatives through the Justice Company Foundation and outlines how the product range could evolve in the future.

Pathos Communications Plc (LSE:NEWS) founder and CEO Omar Hamdi joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss a strong first half following the company's public listing, with double-digit growth in both revenue and EBITDA, rising cash receipts and continued AI investment. Hamdi attributed the performance to a large addressable market, expanding customer relationships and a growing range of services driving repeat business and larger engagements. He described it as "a very, very solid start to the year and start to life as a public company." The AI strategy centres on Pressella, the company's virtual publicist, which Hamdi sees delivering value in two ways: improving internal productivity and enabling generative engine optimisation, helping clients improve how they're represented by large language models like ChatGPT. Hamdi said the company is taking a measured approach, leveraging seven years of proprietary data to train the platform. "We're not in a rush. We've got to get this right," he said. Entering the second half with nearly $1 million in deferred income and around $6 million available, Pathos is actively evaluating both organic growth and acquisition opportunities.

Zephyr Energy PLC (AIM:ZPHR, OTCQB:ZPHRF, FRA:VD5N) CEO Colin Harrington joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss a letter of intent with Atlas Commodity Markets for up to US$15 million in pre-production financing for the Paradox Project - a moment he described as "seminal" for the company. The proposed prepaid commodity purchase agreement would fund infrastructure, well workovers and future drilling without new equity issuance or any reduction in Zephyr's working interest, with repayment coming from future production. Atlas has marketed Paradox production since 2021, giving it deep familiarity with the project's profile and an established gas processing and marketing network. Harrington said the deal gives Zephyr options: "This allows us to go independently and allows us a backstop, which means that we can choose whether to develop this on our own or with a larger partner, and we'll do whatever is best for shareholder value." The financing complements the ongoing farm-out process rather than replacing it, while the non-operated portfolio continues to perform strongly with last year's acquisition already having paid for itself.

Gersan Elektrik Ticaret ve Sanayi Chief Legal Officer Yahya Engin joined Steve Darling at Proactive's OTC studio in New York City to discuss the company's admission to the OTCQX Best Market, a milestone that supports its strategy to expand its international presence and increase visibility among U.S. investors. Engin said the OTCQX listing strengthens Gersan Elektrik's global profile while providing U.S. institutional and retail investors with easier access to the company's shares under the ticker GERLF. He added that the listing also enhances confidence among contractors, engineering firms, and energy sector customers as the company grows its presence in North America and other Western markets. Gersan Elektrik manufactures a broad range of electrical infrastructure products, including busbars, LED bus systems, EV charging stations, earthing materials, and cable trays, exporting to approximately 120 countries worldwide. Management believes the company's manufacturing expertise and international footprint position it well for continued global expansion. The interview also highlighted Gersan Elektrik's decade-long relationship with SmartBolts, which has evolved into a new joint venture. Under the agreement, the partners plan to manufacture SmartBolts products in Türkiye while also collaborating to produce Gersan Elektrik products in the United States, strengthening manufacturing capabilities in both markets. Reflecting on the OTCQX listing, Engin said the achievement represents an important milestone for the company as it continues to build its international brand and expand opportunities in global infrastructure and energy markets. #proctiveinvestors #otcqx #gerlf #turkiye #industrialmanufacturing #evcharging #electricpanels #cablecarriersystems #lightingsystems #powertransmission #ElectricalInfrastructure #Energy #EVCharging #Manufacturing #GlobalExpansion #Infrastructure #BusinessGrowth

TNR Gold Corp (TSX-V:TNR, FRA:TNW, OTC:TRRXF) executive chairman Kirill Klip joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss key milestones across the company's royalty portfolio, from fresh institutional backing to the first signs of cash flow. Altius Minerals has increased its TNR holding to 30,935,000 shares through open market purchases — a move Klip described as further validation of the company's royalty strategy. More significantly, Ganfeng Lithium has begun production at the Mariana Lithium project in Argentina and exported its first lithium chloride, bringing TNR's first royalty payment into sight. "TNR Gold will graduate from project generation royalty company to hopefully royalty generation cash flow company," Klip said. On Los Azules, Klip highlighted improving copper project economics, progress towards a final investment decision and reported interest from Rio Tinto in increasing its exposure, alongside the potential McEwen Copper IPO as a catalyst to watch. The interview also covered the Shotgun Gold Project in Alaska, where TNR is pursuing a joint venture strategy with major miners while keeping its own capital expenditure minimal and generating data for potential partners.

Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT, FRA:BYA1) CEO Francesco Gardin joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss the company's ASIC UltraBoost technology, its expected US patent grant and the commercial opportunity ahead. Gardin said the patent process should conclude within four to six weeks of fees being paid, though the company remains cautious until the grant is officially issued. The technology targets the hardware implementation of Bitcoin's SHA-256 algorithm, an area where meaningful advances have been rare, and is estimated to reduce logic gates by 5%-8% while cutting energy consumption by 2%-5%. "According to our estimate, the saving is between 5 and 8% in terms of logic gates. In terms of energy, it's between 2 and 5%," Gardin said, adding that across large-scale mining operations the cumulative impact could be substantial. The company is already working with an ASIC manufacturer and is seeking specialist semiconductor expertise to structure licensing and royalty agreements. With the potential buyers clearly identified as ASIC chip makers, Gardin said the pathway to commercialisation is well defined.

End chaos in your firm—300+ peers use this framework. Free video here: https://www.businessofarchitecture.com/framework If your firm can't move without you, this episode will feel uncomfortably familiar today. Rion Willard shares a talk he gave on how small practices can build teams that act with ownership, not constant supervision. It's practical, grounded, and aimed at the real pressure points that make good architects feel stuck. You'll hear a clear way to spot when "leadership" is quietly creating stress, slow decisions, and repeat mistakes. Rion also walks through a real client story that shows what changes when a firm shifts its structure, its conversations, and its expectations—without losing its design culture. If you want more freedom, stronger delivery, and a team you can trust, this one is worth your time. The subtle reason "help" can make you busier—not lighter A simple shift that changes how accountability lands in your office The one number that can reveal more than a year of guesswork

Digital systems, increasingly strengthened by artificial intelligence, are helping water utilities move from reacting to failures toward anticipating where infrastructure problems are most likely to occur.Joshua Cantone of SUEZ explains how that shift is changing decisions about pipes, pumps, wells, treatment plants, and long-term capital investment.Many utilities already collect large amounts of information through control systems, maintenance records, hydraulic models, and asset-management platforms.The opportunity now is to connect those datasets and use AI-assisted analysis to identify which assets should be cleaned, repaired, rehabilitated, or replaced before they fail.That preventive approach matters because emergency infrastructure repairs can cost two to three times more than work that is planned and coordinated in advance.Digital planning tools can test thousands of infrastructure scenarios, helping utilities compare construction costs with the energy and operating expenses that accumulate over decades.Cantone also argues that growing familiarity with tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot is making utility employees more comfortable with specialized AI designed for water operations.Groundwater monitoring offers another example of the shift, with more frequent data helping operators track well performance, maintain production, and reduce the energy required for pumping.Smart meters and digital network models are also giving utilities a clearer view of non-revenue water, which Cantone says remains near 20 to 30 percent at many U.S. utilities compared with roughly 5 to 15 percent in parts of the United Kingdom.The next phase of digital water will depend on whether utilities can build reliable data systems—and enough operator trust—to use AI and other digital tools in everyday decisions. waterloop is a nonprofit news outlet exploring solutions for water sustainability.

In 2014, Collin Henderson was young, in shape, and had blood pressure in the 150s. Anxiety. Depression. Completely stuck. And no idea why. What broke it open wasn't a book or a seminar. Someone handed him a framework for his mind, the same way athletes get a framework for their body.  Proactive. Repeatable. Trained. That framework became the foundation of everything he teaches today. Collin Henderson is the founder of Master Your Mindset, a mental conditioning coach to Nike, Microsoft, Amazon, and Salesforce, and one of the most practical mindset teachers George has ever had on the show. This conversation is a masterclass in what it actually looks like to train your mind, not just hope it cooperates. What You'll Learn In This Episode: Why mindset is conditioning, not motivation and the difference between the training room and the weight room The 6,000 vs. 70,000 thought problem and why the untrained mind always loses The "What x3" coaching framework to get unstuck fast Why identity is the bullseye and how your words are either coding you to win or fail Collin's 4-minute HA Method daily mental workout The bison vs. cattle framework for navigating hard seasons with people by your side The Oz Method for influence, sales, and human connection What "victory goes to the vulnerable" actually looks like in practice Key Takeaways: ✔️If the mind is untrained, the thought will win. If the mind is trained, the thinker will win. ✔️80% of human thoughts are negative. 95% are recurring. You're not stuck because of circumstances, you're stuck because of cycles. ✔️You never outperform your self-image. Identity is the bullseye. Words are your wand. ✔️Prehab, not rehab. The mind gym is proactive work, not something you do after you're broken. ✔️Gratitude lowers cortisol by nearly 30%. It's not soft. It's science. ✔️The 4-minute HA Method: breathe (1 min), I Have, gratitude, I Am, self-talk, I See, visualization. Borrow the future to build the present. ✔️Fear loves isolation. Nobody should worry or win alone. Do you have bison people? ✔️Asking for help is not weakness. Hiding and trying to do it yourself is. ✔️Victory goes to the vulnerable, because the coward and the warrior both feel fear. The difference is what they do with it.

Repair will be needed and almost certainly third party trained help will be beneficial.When "Mrs Porn" is on her way out and a distance down the road - not necessarily having been gone for a long period - but going is detectible - it's time to work on repairing the couple. Up until then, the couple have different work to do and different journeys, before joint work.What is a Repair Attempt? Consider this - from The Gottman Institute: "A repair attempt is any statement or action — verbal, physical, or otherwise — meant to diffuse negativity and keep a conflict from escalating out of control. In his book The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work, John Gottman, Ph.D., calls repair attempts a secret weapon of emotionally intelligent couples. His ground breaking research shows “the success or failure of a couple's repair attempts is one of the primary factors in whether [a] marriage is likely to flourish or flounder.”What do we do when our repair attempts fall flat? The simple act of making repair attempts is not enough. Knowing your partner, by understanding their "Needs"/Love Language/Apology Language/The Five Loves (in my book The Art Of Loving) - will help to devise ways to effectively de-escalate a conflict/argument -often arising from the betrayal. Each has lost their best friend.Conflict is inevitable and is not necessarily bad. It is very hard to remain in conflict with someone you are touching and embracing. The block is letting go of pride and actually making the first move to touch the other person. You should try it!All our deepest fears stem from our desire for connection (to be secure) and significance. Our deepest fears are therefore to lose connection and lack significance.There are 7 A's of an effective confession - as a first step towards Repair & Rebuilding connection. They are:1.    Address everyone involved: admit to your role which contributed to the conflict - to every person who has been directly affected.2.    Avoid “if”, “but” and “maybe”: do not use words that shift the blame to others or appear to minimise or excuse your guilt.3.    Admit specifically: identify the specific behaviour which you need to change.4.    Acknowledge the hurt: show that you are trying to understand the way someone must havefelt by your behaviour.5.    Accept the consequence: the consequence may have been severe and restitution may benecessary.6.    Alter your behaviour: explain to the person you offended how you plan to alter your behaviour in the future. 7.    Ask for forgiveness (and allow the other person time). (Forgiveness is one of the most valuable gifts possible. It is very important to understand true Forgiveness, before giving it. A part of Forgiveness is a promise never to again raise the issue against the person! (That can be very tough to uphold).Sex Addict - this applies to you: "If you board the wrong train, it is no use running along the corridor in the other direction" — DietrichBonhoefferGet some help from The Kairos Centre.

Life has a way of throwing things at you that feel completely random, chaotic, and deeply unfair. Maybe someone sideswipes your car, your company downsizes out of nowhere, or you show up for a routine medical checkup only to get hit with an unexpected processing bill before the needle even touches your arm.When you're constantly playing defense against a world that feels out of whack, the default reaction is to look around and wonder why this garbage keeps happening to you. You work hard, you try to do the right thing, and yet it feels like you're just an innocent bystander getting targeted by outside circumstances.But here is the truth of the human system most try to ignore: your external environment is an exact reflection of your internal state. If you are constantly hiding away from looking at your role in your life, you might have missed that you've positioned yourself right next to an automatic ass-kicking machine.Episode OverviewIn this episode, we dive into the absolute number one value of 2026: responsibility. This isn't the dry, compliance-driven version of paying your bills on time or doing your chores. We are talking about response-ability—your fundamental ability to respond to anything and everything that shows up in your lifetime. We break down how your deeply ingrained habits function like an unguided property manager for your life, and explain why reclaiming your status as the absolute owner of your mind and your life changes your entire experience of reality.Key Ideas / TakeawaysThe Life Property Manager: Why your unconscious habits, beliefs, and patterns function like an auto-pilot manager waiting for you to step up and authorize real structural upgrades.The 2026 Value Hierarchy: Why integrity, joy, kindness, communication, and proactive growth are simply structural scaffolding to support real spiritual responsibility.Proactive vs. Reactive Growth: The critical difference between analyzing your life early or waiting for your system to break down the hard way.The Head-in-the-Sand Trap: Breaking down why the belief that "bad things just happen" keeps you stuck in the FOG (Fear, Obligation, and Guilt) and blocks real momentum.The Medical Lab Reality Check: What a surprise $50 collection bill at a blood lab revealed about my own unconscious assumptions regarding the healthcare system.Why ListenThis conversation is a direct invitation to stop acting like a passive tenant who constantly complains about the broken plumbing in their life. If you are ready to transition from being a victim of random circumstances to the empowered creator who actually owns the building of their life, this episode gives you the mental blueprints to take back the keys.Links & Connect With JustinConnect with Justin:Main website: https://www.justinwenck.comAbout Justin: https://www.justinwenck.com/aboutFree offerings: https://www.justinwenck.com/free-offeringsEvents: https://www.justinwenck.com/eventsConnect: https://www.justinwenck.com/connectPodcast home: https://www.buzzsprout.com/787193Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/engineering-emotions-and-energy-with-justin-wenck-ph-d/id1493136576YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@justinwenckphdInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/justinwenckphd/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/justinwenck/Book — Engineered to Love: https://www.engineeredtolove.comAmazon book listing: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C2SQ21WVAudible audiobook: https://www.audible.com/pd/Engineered-to-Love-Audiobook/B0CCQLSDS7Mental Wealth audio course: https://grow.emotionsengineering.com/mentalwealthSend us Fan MailWatch the full video episode at Justin Wenck, Ph.D. YouTube Channel!Check out my best-selling book "Engineered to Love: Going Beyond Success to Fulfillment" also available on Audiobook on all streaming platforms!

They also explore what comprehensive adolescent literacy policy must include, what other states' legislative momentum for secondary literacy can teach us, and why literacy belongs in every content-area classroom.Show notes:Check out our Science of Reading resources for grades 6–8.Read the Educator Preparation Program Literacy Policy Playbook.Learn more about the Advancing Adolescent Literacy Model Policy.Listen to Kymyona Burk's episode from Season 5.Learn more about Kymyona Burk.Connect with Kymyona Burk on LinkedIn.Get ready for Season 3 of the Amplify podcast Beyond My Years.Join our community Facebook group.Connect with Susan Lambert. Quotes:There's a literacy crisis in middle and high school, too." —Kymyona Burk"We've been ver proactive with early literacy, but more reactive, I believe, in adolescent literacy." —Kymyona Burk"Think more about what the students need in response to data instead of pacing." —Kymyona BurkTimestamps*:0:00 Introduction: Adolescent literacy policy, with Kymyona Burk, Ed.D. 5:00 "I knew how to teach English, but I did not know how to teach reading."7:00 Comparing and contrasting early literacy and adolescent literacy policy12:00 What good adolescent literacy policy looks like15:00 The case for universal screeners in middle school18:00 The Virginia Literacy Act and other states building momentum24:00 Professional development for middle and high school educators28:00 Advice for secondary educators33:00 "Think more about what students need in response to data instead of pacing"35:00 Educator preparation programs: the next frontier39:00 Closing thoughts*Timestamps are approximate

Matthew Pearson is the Founder and CEO of Excel Empire, a strategic tax-planning firm that helps business owners and real estate investors reduce tax exposure, strengthen profitability, and plan for growth or exit. An award-winning business coach and serial entrepreneur, Matt has spent more than two decades building, scaling, and advising companies, including a firm that surpassed $100 million in annual revenue. He specializes in proactive, ethical tax strategies, entity structuring, business transitions, and coordinated financial planning that helps owners keep more of what they earn. In this episode… Many business owners approach taxes as a once-a-year filing task instead of an ongoing part of their financial strategy. That mindset can limit cash flow, delay important decisions, and leave valuable opportunities unexplored. How can owners move from simply reporting the past to actively shaping what comes next? The shift begins with proactive tax planning, and Matthew Pearson, a business growth and tax strategy expert, explains how owners can reduce tax exposure while supporting their broader business goals. Among his recommendations are reviewing entity structure, seeking a second opinion, and balancing potential savings with financing, expansion, and exit plans. Matt emphasizes that tax decisions should reflect the owner's complete financial picture rather than exist in isolation. With the right coordination and foresight, planning becomes a tool for stronger growth, better transitions, and fewer costly surprises. In this episode of Owner's Profit Playbook, Pat Mancuso talks with Matthew Pearson, Founder and CEO of Excel Empire, about why proactive tax planning matters. Matt examines common tax mistakes, entity structure, and the value of a second opinion. He also touches on bookkeeping, fractional CFO support, succession, valuations, and tax-smart business exits.

Eric spent his career in procurement, from a semiconductor fab through commodity management at HP; Ryan spent two decades guiding companies through supply chain strategy before joining SupplyFrame. The conversation traces what happens when a design gets released without accounting for what's coming downstream: part proliferation, geopolitical disruption, tariffs, and shifting compliance standards that can turn a thousand-dollar swap into a ten-million-dollar redesign. Eric and Ryan unpack why engineering and procurement talk past each other, and share real stories — from an unauthorized parts swap caught on a factory floor to a homemade stunt involving a lead fishing weight and fake ivy — that show what's at stake when teams don't share visibility into risk. They close on where AI is headed next: not replacing engineers, but becoming a design partner that folds supply chain context directly into part selection.
