John Konsin is co-founder and CEO of Prapela, a company pioneering noninvasive stimulation to improve infant breathing and oxygenation. The company's infant mattress technology has already received two Breakthrough Device designations from the US FDA, which expedites clearance for clinical usage. Prapela expects to debut an additional application based on the technology in 2025.  John and Wendy connected at the Redefining Early Stage of Investment (RESI) Conference in Boston, which Life Science Nation hosted. (Wendy recently interviewed Dennis Ford, founder and CEO of Life Science Nation, which specializes in fundraising for life sciences companies.) In this episode, John describes three clinical applications for Prapela's technology and outlines the company's global expansion strategy, focusing on providing valuable insight into navigating international markets, regulatory challenges, and cross-cultural communication.  The Science Behind Safer Sleep  At the heart of Prapela's innovation is that 62% of healthy infants experience irregular breathing patterns and oxygen desaturation in their first three months of life. The Collaborative Home Infant Monitoring Evaluation (CHIME) study monitored over 1,000 healthy infants at home using hospital-grade equipment to track their respiration, cardiac activity, movement, and oxygen saturation levels. Episodes varied in frequency, severity, and duration among babies—some experienced them once, while others showed multiple occurrences.  Most significantly, these breathing irregularities occurred not just in at-risk infants but in otherwise healthy babies, highlighting a previously unrecognized challenge in early infant development. (Ramanathan, R., et al. (2001). Cardiorespiratory events recorded on home monitors: Comparison of healthy infants with those at increased risk for SIDS. JAMA, 285(17), 2199-2207.)  Prapela's infant mattress helps to regulate babies' breathing through a gentle, barely perceptible vibration. The innovation grew out of research by Dr. David Paydarfar, who, in the 1990s, discovered that a specific type of random vibration, known scientifically as "stochastic" vibration, could improve the “pacemaker function,” the neurons in a baby's brain that controls automatic breathing. The vibration is so subtle it moves less than half the diameter of a human hair, making it effective and non-disruptive to sleep patterns.  The Hospital-First Strategy  The company has secured over $8 million in funding through grants and awards, allowing them to maintain control while developing their technology. John says this will enable the company to seek equity investment from a position of strength, with FDA clearance on the horizon and a clear path to commercialization.  Their market strategy began in hospitals, aiming to directly and immediately impact infant care in critical settings. This approach is grounded in decades of successful medical device launches, which built a foundation of clinical credibility before venturing into the broader consumer landscape. The technology has already demonstrated its potential, reducing reliance on supplemental oxygen and minimizing the need for traditional breathing interventions.  John envisions a future where "Prapela Inside" becomes as recognizable in infant care as "Intel Inside" is in computers, starting with the 52 global manufacturers of hospital bassinets and incubators:  [W]e we can make this mattress fit any infant sleep device worldwide. So it doesn't matter if it's an incubator, bassinet, crib, or cot, as they use the term in international markets, right? We can make it fit those products. So, our strategy is similar to that of Intel with the microchip. You'll see a little badge when you buy a computer from Dell or some other company. It says Intel inside.  By positioning their technology as a vital component that transforms standard infant care equipment into advanced breathing support systems, Prapela aims to revolutionize hospital infant care worldwide. Following FDA approval, Prapela plans to pursue regulatory clearance in other markets, initially focusing on Europe, India, and the Middle East. The sequential approach allows them to leverage their FDA clearance while adapting to local regulatory requirements in each new market.  Cultural Intelligence in Global Marketing  John offers valuable insight into cross-cultural communication and marketing. He emphasizes several key principles for successful global expansion:  Language Simplification: English is widely spoken in international business, but vocabulary depth varies significantly. John advocates using simpler terms and friendly communication to bridge language gaps.  Local Market Adaptation: Success in one market doesn't guarantee success in another. Companies must adapt messaging, pricing, and marketing approaches to local market conditions rather than forcing an American-centric approach.  Brand Management: While maintaining global brand consistency is essential, give local managers some latitude in adapting messages to their markets. This is particularly critical when moving from clinical to consumer marketing, where terms like "calmness" might carry different cultural connotations across markets.  He underscores the importance of remaining open to and respectful of local customs and traditions in international business relationships with a memorable story from his early career in Mexico. The general managers of manufacturing operations presented him with a stuffed armadillo. Initially puzzled by the gift, he later learned it symbolized appreciation for his patience and understanding of their culture.  Brand Identity Across Borders  John explains that "Prapela" was carefully constructed from Latin roots to create a unique name that wouldn't carry unintended meanings in other languages. This thoughtful approach helps avoid the pitfalls that some major companies have encountered, such as the famous case of Chevrolet's Nova in Latin American markets, where the name unfortunately translated to "doesn't go."  The company's branding strategy balances global consistency with local flexibility from the outset. It maintains core clinical messaging that resonates with medical professionals worldwide while recognizing the need for nuanced consumer-market approaches. John explains that exercise is particularly important when communicating concepts like infant calmness or comfort, as cultural interpretations can vary significantly.  Listen to the full episode to learn more about Prapela's innovative approach to their technology and market entry strategy.    Links:   Website: https://www.prapela.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jkonsin/    Connect with Wendy - https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendypease/  Music: Fiddle-De-Dee by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com

Ranesh Ramanathan, co-head of private credit and special situations at Akin, discusses why he decided to return to a law firm after 14 years in-house at Citi and Bain and how he's thought about his career. 

Karuna has been a leadership journeyman for a long time. Over nearly four decades of work and lived experiences, he has studied, observed, led, suffered, been mentored, and gained much from simply observing and learning from both amazing, and unfortunately, appalling leaders. His leadership journey began quite by accident at 19 at the Britannia Royal Naval College, Dartmouth, undoubtedly one of the finest leadership training institutions in the world. Over a year, his first conceptions of leadership were uprooted against the time-honoured traditions of the seafarer. For good reason, as the sea has always been and remains a harsh punisher of poor leadership and judgement. He went on to gain his sea legs working with ship-crews, and leading small numbers of highly capable and well-trained men and women. During his time in the Navy he also lived in Sweden, Australia and the United States, training with other navy men and women, and in the process learning how others chose to lead. He capped 19 years in the Navy in Singapore with two consecutive warship commands over six years, a 45-meter minehunter with 38-crew, and a 150-meter landing ship tank with 120 crew. Leaving the Navy after successful command at sea as the pioneer crew of the Landing Ship Tank was a forced choice. Karuna chose to prioritise his life at that stage to be a father to his two children, and a better version of himself to his wife, who had earlier already given up her career to stay home with the young son and daughter. Leaders make choices, and commit to those choices, and often find themselves in difficult trade-offs.Karuna again found himself another accidental opportunity in the newly created military leadership centre, where he spent a decade as part of the pioneer team to transform military culture through the development of leaders and values work. He successfully retired after three decades in the military, and went on to work for three years as the Singapore Government's Senior Organisational Development Consultant. His work with Brunei Government leaders was acknowledged by the World Bank in 2016.Over the past 6 years, Karuna has coached and worked closely with Senior Leaders, organisational leadership teams, and middle managers to help them grow into the leaders they need to be. His success rate at supporting organisational transformation is evident from repeat client requests for his support.Karuna is a firm believer in RESPECT as the Core Value for Organisational Leaders. Respect underpins Empathy as a Leadership Practice, and when leaders began to empathise well, they might be described as humble, and demonstrating Humility. Respect is also key to Diversity and Inclusion, and a powerful anchor to much needed people and culture work. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

An interim report submitted to the Florida Building Commission says that Southwest Florida coastal communities impacted by last September's Hurricane Ian were “ill-prepared” for the storm surge and flooding, despite lessons on wind mitigation learned from Hurricane Charley 18 years earlier.  Ian was the costliest storm in Florida history, killing 156 people and causing an estimated $109.5 billion in damage in Florida.  Only an estimated half of that will be covered by insurance.Former Florida Deputy Insurance Commissioner Lisa Miller sat down with the report's co-author and another extreme events scientist who produced early catastrophic models on Ian for insurance companies.  They discussed how this new research shows some of the same patterns of destruction seen in prior storms, that Florida hurricanes are not getting stronger or more frequent, how elderly and poor residents are disproportionately hurt, potential changes to the state building code, and why a new approach to mitigation is needed.    Show Notes New lessons are emerging from Hurricane Ian, the high-end Category 4 hurricane that made landfall near Fort Myers Beach on September 28, 2022.  An interim report by a team of scientists supported by the Florida Building Commission showed Ian's tropical storm-force wind field was 2.3 times the diameter of 2004's Hurricane Charley.  The greater resulting storm surge of 13 feet impacted high population areas living in both elevated and on-grade homes along hundreds of miles of canals and coastal frontage.  (For full Show Notes, visit https://lisamillerassociates.com/episode-44-dynamic-duo-ian-hit-hard/) Findings: The report evaluates specific building code-related impacts to structural performance, including breakaway walls relative to code provisions, placement of the coastal construction control line, evidence for surge-induced floor slab uplift forces, and performance of common roof cover and wall cladding elements. Dr. David O. Prevatt, one of the report's co-authors, is a Professor of Civil & Coastal Engineering at the University of Florida's Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering.  He is part of the Structural Extreme Events Reconnaissance (StEER) Network of researchers and product engineers that conducts surveys to assess building performance after each hurricane.  Its evaluation was used in the interim report and captured Hurricane Ian's damage patterns and storm surge.  Dr. Prevatt said Ian was not a design level wind-event, meaning its wind speed on land of about 120 mph was below the building code standards of 154-160 mph for Lee County, where it made landfall on September 28, 2022.“The severe damage we saw was really the flooding, in particular the manufactured homes on Fort Myers Beach and mostly older slab-on-grade homes,” said Dr. Prevatt.  “The good news, if there is any that we can draw from this, is that recent construction built to the recent Florida Building Code standards performed well, even in areas where they were impacted by the 13-foot high storm surge.”Yet, Ian destroyed or severely damaged about 20,000 homes in a wide path from Lee County on the Gulf Coast and inland across central Florida to Daytona Beach on Florida's Atlantic Coast.    Dr. Prevatt said he saw the same patterns of damage in Ian that he saw in the previous six years from Hurricanes Matthew, Irma, and Michael.  “It's one of the saddest parts for me.  If we don't harden our communities or retreat and move them away from these intense events, we will repeat what we've seen here five, 10, 20 years down the road,” said Dr. Prevatt.    Dr. Karthik Ramanathan is Vice President of Research at Verisk, the worldwide data analytics and risk assessment firm.  He led the catastrophe modeling team that estimated Hurricane Ian's initial insurance and reinsurance losses at between $42 billion to $57 billion, not including federal flood insurance losses.  The firm's catastrophe or extreme event models not only help insurance companies determine adequate insurance premiums to the assessed value of risk and speed adjusters to the hardest hit areas right after the storm but “can also act as excellent platforms for you to test out the impact of mitigation measures,” said Dr. Ramanathan.  “As David said, the performance of manufactured homes or mobile homes continues to be a major issue, even 30 years after Hurricane Andrew, although a lot has been done to strengthen them,” said Dr. Ramanathan.  “We saw a colossal amount of damage to manufactured homes.  Older and middle aged homes also saw significant damage.”  He and his team spent a week in South Florida after Hurricane Ian made landfall, surveying damage in both coastal and inland counties.  Some inland counties he noted had “pretty staggering” claim losses similar to coastal counties near Ian's landfall.“Even on the wind side, some of these inland counties saw a significant amount of claims, primarily coming in from roof damage.  And to me, it's mind boggling, seeing the same state which sort of pioneered wind design, not just in the United States, but across the world, is seeing some of the same issues 30 years on in an event like Ian,” said Dr. Ramanathan.  New Approaches to Mitigation: Host Miller noted that mitigation often poses a quandary for homeowners and policymakers.  “We're looking at construction costs going through the roof if we build stronger.  We're looking at property insurance premiums rising because perhaps we haven't,” she said.   Less than two weeks after Hurricane Ian, Hurricane Nicole made landfall on Florida's east coast with modest winds but a large storm surge, creating additional flooding and tremendous coastal erosion.  Nearly 50 oceanfront homes, condominium buildings, and hotels in Volusia County either collapsed into the surf or suffered severe erosion damage.Dr. Prevatt said the same conditions have actually existed for thousands of years in Florida.  “We have the same hurricanes today.  They are no more intense.  They're not larger, nor are they more frequent than the hurricanes that have moved over the last 5,000 years.  So what is happening?  We have more construction.  We have more people building on barrier islands.  Barrier islands are called barrier islands, I think, because they were meant to protect the mainland shoreline from the storm surge, from these damages.  And they're meant to move the sand with the wind.  Hurricanes are natural hazards.  This is just how things are,” said Dr. Prevatt.Florida's population, he points out, is four times what it was in the 1970's.  “We really have to stop and ask ourselves, ‘How much further?  How much money?  How much federal effort should we put into securing and holding on with our own biting nails, to small pieces of land, as opposed to leaving and understanding what is happening on a natural basis?',” Dr. Prevatt asked.“We are building in areas where we are not supposed to build,” Dr. Ramanathan agreed, noting a Florida Department of Environmental Protection report on designated critically eroded beaches.  “And further, we are building in a manner that is not necessarily resilient by putting homes on slab foundations.  It is what led to a disaster that, according to my humble opinion, could have been 100% mitigated.”Part of the mitigation challenge is that 65% of Florida's homes were built prior to Hurricane Andrew.  “New construction may be adding 2% or 3% to our housing inventory per year.  So we're just not at scale to really impact future changes in our mitigation,” said Dr. Prevatt.  He said what's needed is “research that will actually retrofit houses at scale, not one house at a time, (but) one neighborhood at a time, one town at a time.”  Doing so will involve looking beyond the Bell Curve of statistics and instead disaggregating the data.“And what you're going to find is that the majority of this damage, disproportionately high percentages, are going to fall on the least able in our society.  The poorest, the minorities, the black communities, and the tribal communities.  These are the people who have been wiped out.  And the retirees.  Did you know that over 65% of the fatalities in Ian were over 60 years of age?” Dr. Prevatt pointed out.Recommended Building Code Changes: The interim report will be updated to address questions by the Florida Building Commission that will lead to a final report, which can inform future code changes.  Dr. Ramanathan believes the commission can make additional changes to the Florida Building Code beyond those mandated in recent sessions of the Florida Legislature.    He said he would like to see more durable screened enclosures on homes “because if you have to replace a screened enclosure, you're looking at a claim to the magnitude of about $5,000 or $6,000 or probably higher with inflation.”  He said he'd also like to see required window protection across Florida, regardless of whether the home is in a designated wind-borne debris region, “which don't cost a lot to install.”  Finally, although manufactured homes fall under federal HUD standards, he said states can add local amendments.    “I hope, as David said, if the foundation designed for manufactured homes can be looked at closely and even more importantly, if they can be enforced to the same degree as some of the other regular single family home enforcements take place in Florida, I think it will go a long way in mitigating damage following such events,” said Dr. Ramanathan.  Dr. Prevatt said he wouldn't look to the Florida Building Code for short-term changes, but rather a bigger picture of how to create a resilient community born in the 22nd Century.  “I would spend my time in the interdisciplinary research between the economics, urban planning, and engineering analysis that will be necessary for us to re-site our coastal residential communities inland on a macro level.“  Included in that would be converting coastal land to other uses, finding ways to buy-out private properties, and moving entire communities to safer areas, he said. “If we engineers continue to do the same type of research for the next 20 years in the same type of way, we will still end up with the same result.  We have to think way bigger, we have to be grand, we have to be bold, and we have to go out there and do this.  This is a moonshot moment.  This is the time that Florida needs to step up and change it all,” said Dr. Prevatt.Dr. Ramathan said Verisk does a lot of community outreach, through its work with extreme event models.  “In fact, one of our missions is to promote global resilience.  Because insurance, the way I look at it, is the best form of mitigation if used properly,” said Dr. Ramanathan.Host Miller pledged to work with the “dynamic duo” of guests and the listening audience to expand the outreach of this critical scientific research to better educate local, regional, and state policymakers, as well as federal officials.Links and Resources Mentioned in this EpisodeInterim Report: Survey and Investigation of Buildings Damaged by Hurricane Ian (University of Florida

Nicole gets to know Technology Sitecore MVP, Subramanian Ramanathan.

Meera talked about coming back to art after a long hiatus while teaching and moving from one country to another. She shared beautiful advice for artists and educators around diving into art-making and giving yourself grace as you grow your art practice. Meera also shared her experience through this pandemic and how meaningful it has been coming back to in-person teaching with tactile art materials. I loved hearing about her work and the process of selecting colors, tearing paper, collaging, and then adding embroidery. She shared advice around how she seeks opportunities and plans for solo shows, which was really helpful. Meera also created a company, Art Bound, in which she creates beautiful hand-bound books of children's original artwork. These become keepsakes for the children and families, transforming those piles of artwork, notes, cards, and homework into a gorgeous book. Meera Ramanathan is a visual art teacher and an artist. She has a Master's degree in history of fine arts, drawing and painting and obtained a single subject teaching credential in visual art at San Diego State University. She creates paper collages that have been featured in several exhibitions.

Speakers V. Ramanathan, Nancy Knowlton and Jonah Western discuss humanity's past, present and future of the Anthropocene. Veerabhadran Ramanathan has had the privilege and pleasure of collaborating with Paul Crutzen for more than 40 years. Crutzen is one of the most creative, innovative and original geo-scientists of his generation. Nancy Knowlton speaks on how the ocean is enormous, indeed so large that for centuries we assumed there was nothing we could do to substantially harm it. Unfortunately, we now know that this is not true. David (Jonah) Western emphasizes how conservation is common to all societies which learned to live within ecosystem limits. If we use our unique capacity for cooperation and planning, there is hope for combating global warming and sustaining the diversity of life globally.

Veerabhadran Ramanathan has had the privilege and pleasure of collaborating with Paul Crutzen for more than 40 years. During the year 2000, when he announced to the world about his Anthropocene concept, Crutzen and Ramanathan were in the midst of a major field study on Atmospheric Clouds over the Indian Ocean. Crutzen is one of the most creative, innovative and original geo-scientists of his generation. Ramanathan describes the Anthropocene using the lens of a climate scientist. He concludes with speculation about how and when we will transition from the current adolescent age of the Anthropocene subject to multiple assaults on the environment to a mature, sustainable and safe Anthropocene.

Website: https://vitalxchange.com/ Facebook: @vitalxchange Twitter: @vitalxchange In their words: We have created a world where parents and providers caring for special needs children can partner to help children thrive. As parents, we had struggled to make informed and timely decisions for our children. Although the schools and clinics were well-intentioned, we felt that we had no voice at the table where important decisions regarding our children were being made. Guided by these personal experiences and our healthcare backgrounds, we designed a caring ecosystem by bringing together passionate special needs professionals and parents, united by technology. Why do you need a VitalGuide? Raising a child with special needs can be overwhelming. Online information and strong opinions from support groups, friends, and family members can make things even more confusing and frustrating. You want to make the right decisions for your child, feel reassured as a parent, and help them reach their full potential. Finally, there's a solution - Your personal VitalGuide. We know that every family is unique and needs different types of resources and support at different times. That is why Vitalxchange has created a platform that matches each parent with highly experienced parent mentors or professionals for various aspects of special needs parenting, based on their needs. An important question - Why are VitalGuide services not free? The money you spend on our platform creates new income opportunities for our VitalGuides, many of whom are moms and caregivers themselves. Unlike free programs where there are huge waiting lists and unreliable support, our VitalGuides are committed to you and will ensure that your family gets the personalized support you deserve.

This episode is sponsored by Quantstamp, Nexo.io and KuCoin. For the last day for 2021 and the end of a two-week break for Money Reimagined, we're serving up the second of two of our favorite episodes from the past year. Michael Casey's pick was the episode from Sept. 15, not because that's his birthday and not only because in that one he had the pleasure of meeting co-host Sheila Warren's “chithi” (aunt), Dr. Usha Ramanathan. It was mainly because Ramanahan's insights and those of the second guest, Marta Belcher, zeroed in on why maintaining data privacy is a matter of protecting our very humanity. Ramanathan is a lawyer and an influential human rights activist in India. She has worked since 2009 to challenge India's controversial digital identity program, Aadhaar, the world's largest biometric ID system. Belcher serves as general counsel of Protocol Labs, chair of the Filecoin Foundation and special counsel to the Electronic Frontier Foundation.Aadhaar has long been a lightning rod for the kind of privacy advocates who are often drawn to crypto and warn of the authoritarian threats from a government controlling such a large, centralized database of personal information. To that critique, the tech firms that built and now support India's system have typically responded that they are overcoming the so-called “digital divide,” providing powerful, “programmable” IDs to the poor so that they can not only access the kind of services we take for granted but build new services on top of them. Ramanathan turns that counter-argument on its head. She suggests backers of Aadhaar and other universal identity systems have fostered a myth that official IDs are necessary for citizens to participate in the economy when it's perfectly possible to conceive of an effective economic system in which people prosper without compromising their privacy. Belcher then puts all this into the context of how our private data is being captured by centralized corporate internet platforms and whether or not decentralized solutions using cryptocurrencies and blockchains can free us from this. It's a great episode and well worth a lesson as we head into a new year in which the battle of the future of our digital economy is poised to intensify.
