Het moederbedrijf van Douwe Egberts-koffie, JDE Peet’s, zag de omzet én de winst de eerste helft van het jaar stijgen. Zo blijkt uit de nieuwe kwartaalcijfers. Het bedrijf was de afgelopen maanden veel in het nieuws vanwege ruzie met supermarkten over de prijzen. Het conflict liep zelfs zo hoog op dat bij grote spelers als Albert Heijn en Jumbo de schappen leeg bleven. Waarom is dat niet terug te zien in de omzet?

Greywashing 101: The Illusion of Including Older Workers You've heard it before:  “We value experience.” Then they ghost you for having it!   Welcome to greywashing.  The corporate costume party where age inclusion is just a mask and older professionals are quietly filtered out by AI, ATS, and coded language. Lines like, “you're overqualified” or “we want a digital native…” simply translate to:  You're too old, too seasoned, and too expensive. The illusion of inclusion is real. But this isn't just bias. It's a fully blown business epidemic hidden in plain sight. Nearly half of professionals over 40 say they've been shut out because of their age, yet only 8% of DEI programs even acknowledge it.  On the other hand, companies like Workday, IBM, Facebook, and PWC are under legal fire for allowing AI-driven tools to quietly screen out older applicants.  This isn't progress; this is exclusion with a new interface. In this episode, I expose the truth behind performative inclusion and show you how to spot it, expose it, and outsmart it. How “inclusive” job posts still signal: you're not wanted Why “digital native” isn't a compliment, it's a filter The 3 biggest myths keeping age bias invisible How to reframe your experience as the solution to urgent, expensive problems The power of pattern recognition and how to make it your superpower Here's what it looks like when you stop playing defense and start owning your edge. The system's flawed. But your positioning? That's power. You're not too old. You're too qualified to play small. Loved the episode?

When we talk about the future of enterprise software, AI is front and center. But behind the buzzwords, real transformation is happening in how businesses plan, execute, and deliver professional services. In this episode, I sat down with Raju Malhotra, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Certinia, to explore how AI is shifting from theory to practice in high-scale environments. Certinia, a native ISV on Salesforce, is helping global tech and service firms like Cisco, Siemens, and PwC automate their services operations. With over two million users and six million active projects, the platform isn't just adding AI for the sake of it. It's embedding it directly into workflows to solve tangible business challenges. Raju shares a clear framework for understanding how different types of AI are being implemented. Predictive AI is already deeply integrated into enterprise processes. Generative AI is gaining traction for simplifying content and communication. Agentic AI, the most recent frontier, enables digital agents to complete complex tasks independently within enterprise guardrails. What stood out in our conversation was the emphasis on outcomes over features. Raju makes a compelling case for starting every technology decision by understanding the customer's goals. Certinia's approach avoids chasing trends for the sake of headlines. Instead, the focus is on delivering results like improved margins, higher resource utilization, and smarter project delivery. We also discussed Certinia's early adoption of Salesforce's Agent Force and how their team works closely with Salesforce engineering to align on AI strategy. Rebranding their ERP Cloud to Financial Management Cloud was another move that reflects their sharper focus on services-centric financials, rather than trying to be everything to everyone. There's a clear message in this conversation. Innovation in AI must be matched with investment in performance, latency, scale, and user experience. For any tech leader navigating the AI landscape, Raju's insights provide a grounded, real-world guide. How are you aligning your AI investments with measurable business outcomes?

In this episode of SCW for Pharma, Evren Ozkaya welcomes Adrian Van den Hoven, Director General of Medicines for Europe, the leading voice for generic and biosimilar manufacturers across the continent.The conversation begins by underscoring the essential role generics and biosimilars play in Europe's healthcare system — making up around 90% of prescriptions but only 20% of total costs. Adrian explains how these medicines significantly expand access while easing the burden on patients and insurers. However, despite their public health value, low profit margins have led to a fragile and highly consolidated market — one responsible for two-thirds of medicine shortages across Europe, a trend also seen in the U.S.Evren and Adrian explore how geopolitical tensions, supply chain disruptions, and stringent environmental regulations are putting additional pressure on the sector. While EU authorities are assessing ways to strengthen local supply, current pricing models offer little incentive for generic manufacturers to invest in capacity or modernization. Today, 70% of manufacturing investment goes toward maintaining compliance, leaving only 30% for productivity, agility, or innovation — eroding Europe's competitiveness against countries like China and India.Digital transformation surfaces as a crucial lever — not just to improve efficiency but also to combat labor shortages and build greater resilience. Yet Adrian notes that digital maturity in EU pharma remains low, with many factories still running on paper and Excel. Still, the opportunity is enormous. As Evren highlights, PwC estimates that AI could potentially double EBITDA for pharma, especially through manufacturing and supply chain use cases. But he also cautions that most companies aren't ready to harness AI due to weak data infrastructure. Without high-quality, real-time operational data, AI delivers poor results — “garbage in, garbage out.”The episode concludes with a look ahead. Adrian stresses that Europe has the skilled workforce to lead in digital transformation, but regulatory support and targeted funding are essential. Strategic partnerships — like the one between SCW.AI and Medicines for Europe — can help bridge the gap. Evren and Adrian close by previewing their upcoming meeting in Brussels with the European Commission, generic pharma manufacturers, and technology providers — a collaborative push to showcase ROI, align stakeholders, and accelerate digital transformation across the industry.

De Nederlandse woningmarkt heeft belang bij een langetermijnvisie.

En dat lukt niet.’ Volgens Baarsma heeft de woningmarkt voortdurend met nieuwe en soms tegenstrijdige regels te maken. Vaak ligt de focus op het stimuleren van de vraag, zoals met de hypotheekrenteaftrek of voorheen de jubeltoon. Er zijn echter ook regels die de vraag juist remmen, zoals het minimaal annuïtair aflossen om in aanmerking te komen voor het aftrekken van de hypotheekrente of de Wet betaalbare huur die het aanbod omlaag heeft gebracht. Daarnaast richt beleid zich zelden op het vergroten van het aanbod. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

AI is racing ahead, but for industries like life sciences, the stakes are higher and the rules more complex. In this episode, recorded just before the July heatwave hit its peak, I spoke with Chris Moore, President of Europe at Veeva Systems, from his impressively climate-controlled garden office. We covered everything from the trajectory of agentic AI to the practicalities of embedding intelligence in highly regulated pharma workflows, and how Veeva is quietly but confidently positioning itself to deliver where others are still making announcements. Chris brings a unique perspective shaped by a career that spans ICI Pharmaceuticals, PwC, IBM, and EY. That journey taught him how often the industry is forced to rebuild the same tech infrastructure again and again until Veeva came along. He shares how Veeva's decision to build a life sciences-specific cloud platform from the ground up has enabled a deeper, more compliant integration of AI. We explored what makes Veeva AI different, from the CRM bot that handles compliant free text to MLR agents that support content review and approval. Chris explains how Veeva's AI agents inherit the context and controls of their applications, making them far more than chat wrappers or automation tools. They are embedded directly into workflows, helping companies stay compliant while reducing friction and saving time. And perhaps more importantly, he makes a strong case for why the EU AI Act isn't a barrier. It's a validation. From auto-summarising regulatory documents to pulling metadata from health authority correspondence, the real-world examples Chris offers show how Veeva AI will reduce repetitive work while ensuring integrity at every step. He also shares how Veeva is preparing for a future where companies may want to bring their LLMs or even run different ones by geography or task. Their flexible, harness-based approach is designed to support exactly that. Looking ahead to the product's first release in December, Chris outlines how Veeva is working hand-in-hand with customers to ensure readiness and reliability from day one. We also touch on the broader mission: using AI not as a shiny add-on, but as a tool to accelerate drug development, reach patients faster, and relieve the pressure on already overstretched specialist teams. Chris closes with a dose of humanity, offering a book and song that both reflect Veeva's mindset, embracing disruption while staying grounded. This one is for anyone curious about how real, applied AI is unfolding inside one of the world's most important sectors, and what it means for the future of medicine.

Why has claims innovation taken off in personal lines, but still lags behind in specialty? It's a question that many in the market have asked and in this episode, a panel of senior experts set out to answer it. Hosted by Andrew Pedler, Vice President at Reserv, this special discussion brings together three experienced voices from across the claims and consulting landscape: Chris Payne (Partner, EY), Andy Stevenson (Consultant Director, PwC), and Patrick Hayward (Claims Lead, Altus Consulting). Together, they examine why some of the biggest efficiency gains in motor and home claims haven't yet translated into specialty and what needs to change to unlock that value. In this conversation, the panel explores: Where personal lines have succeeded: distribution, automation,and data enrichment Why claims in specialty remain complex, fragmented and harder to automate The structural and cultural barriers to innovation including litigation risk and lack of direct customer engagement How changing expectations and regulatory pressures are creating momentum for transformation What a “claims workbench” might look like and how it mirrors trends in underwriting The panel's insight is clear: meaningful claims transformation in specialty is less about chasing point solutions and more about rethinking the role of claims within the wider enterprise from managing portfolios to improving capital efficiency. Whether you're trying to improve claims operations, justify technology investment, or just understand what's actually happening in the market, this is an honest and thought-provoking discussion with people who know the space inside out.

Active ETFs are gaining traction as a tool for alpha generation, while the potential for an ETF share class has come to the forefront in the past few months. Steve discusses considerations for investors looking to incorporate these investment options into their portfolios in this episode with podcast host John P. Bryson. Here's an excerpt from the conversation:1 What are active ETFs?Steve: An active ETF combines the ETF wrapper with active management inside of a 40 Act product like a mutual fund, but in this case, the 40 Act product is the exchange-traded fund. It allows for intraday trading, transparency of underlying holdings, and tax efficiency, with the potential to outperform a market or a benchmark.2 What should investors consider while picking an active ETF that's right for them?Steve: Investors should consider the track record and trustworthiness of the active manager, understanding what the fund aims to accomplish. They should consider the underlying investments within the ETF and how that relates to pricing. There's always a spread, like when you buy a stock, so you want to understand how wide the spread is, your cost of acquisition, and if you have to pay a commission.3 What is an ETF share class?Steve: An ETF share class is an additional share class of a traditional mutual fund, similar to an A or I share class, but in an ETF wrapper. It allows for an ETF to be linked to an already established mutual fund with a track record, offering benefits like instant scale and historical performance. This setup can provide lower overall expenses and more tax efficiency due to the structure of ETFs.1 “ETFs 2029: The path to $30 trillion,” PwC, 3/4/25 .

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

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing some of the recent activity on LiveWire, which is now becoming quieter as we move into the summer season. We then continued our discussion on the recent U.S. Government decisions as they pertain to international MBA students; Harvard appears to have won a recent decision in their fight with the U.S. Government in terms of being able to enroll international students.. Graham highlighted Clear Admit's summer series of webinars, which focuses on top MBA programs' admissions essays, which will be attended by more than 20 of the top MBA programs. The first event in the series includes Berkeley / Haas, Cornell / Johnson, Dartmouth / Tuck, Duke / Fuqua and UPenn / Wharton. Signups are here: https://bit.ly/mbaessay0725. Graham then noted two admissions tips; the first focuses on the importance of post MBA career goals, the second, part of Clear Admit's “Myth Busters” series, discusses the differences between targeting Round 1 and Round 2.. We continue our series of Adcom Q&As, which is a yearly series where we interview the admissions leaders at all the top MBA programs; this week we have Q&As from NYU / Stern and Georgetown / McDonough.. Finally, Graham highlighted a Real Humans alumni spotlight focusing on an alum from IESE working at PwC.. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected three ApplyWire entries:. This week's first MBA admissions candidate has a 329 GRE score and a 3.4 GPA. They are working in the biotech sector, and plan to remain in that sector, post MBA. They want to do investment banking in the short term.. This week's second MBA candidate has a 3.86 GPA but has not taken the GMAT or GRE yet. They are also focused on the health care sector.. The final MBA candidate is from South Korea and has 10 years of experience in the tech sector, focusing on AI and robotics. They have a 685 GMAT score. This episode was recorded in Kansas City, Missouri and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA.
