The average workplace catering order size is up 12% to about $420. That's good news for restaurants, said Cindy Klein Roche, chief growth officer for ezCater, a platform that connects workplaces with dining concepts. But restaurants must optimize their online presence and present an appealing menu to get a piece of that growing pie. About 59% of those who place workplace orders are swayed by the menu, with budget-friendliness following close behind at 37%.While companies have been using catering as a return-to-office incentive, food has now evolved into a vehicle to drive productivity and collaboration, Roche explains. And employees who first try a restaurant at work will then return to that restaurant on their own or with a group for lunch or dinner. With B2B catering on the rise, she offers valuable insights as to how restaurants can boost that revenue stream, why breakfast and afternoon treats are growing as catering opportunities and where workplace catering is heading next.
Stories of his time as a PhD student borrowing a ute to from UQ to take blood from truckdrivers on the roadside, “Robust discussions with his colleague,” and remembering life when finding the latest published paper was a social occasion. He fondly recalls the people and the work that make us punch above our weight.
The initial Q2 2025 GDP growth number was just released and it beat expectations handily, coming in at a "strong" 3.0%But...when looking just a little bit beneath the surface, the data doesn't look as impressive as on first glance. For example, the biggest contributor by far to the "beat" was shrinking inventories relative to the massive Q1 pre-orders that were made as corporations front-ran the Trump tariffs.So, just as the negative Q1 GDP number wasn't truly as bad as it seemed, similarly the Q2 number isn't as robust as the headline suggests.The team from New Harbor Financial and I dig into what the true reality likely is, as well as discuss the latest FOMC release, the tremendous amount of speculation in the markets today, and the latest price action in gold, silver and Bitcoin.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

The tariff puts India behind peers like Vietnam and Japan, sparking concerns over Apple's India strategy, foreign factory investments, and a potential $30 billion economic hit. Moneycontrol investigates the fallout and other implications from 5 angles. For these and more news tune in to this edition of Moneycontro Editor's Picks.
Das Nachrichtenumfeld ist heute überwiegend positiv, vor allem im Tech-Sektor. Hier fallen die meisten Ergebnisse teils deutlich besser aus als erwartet. Neben Qorvo, geht es auch bei Vertiv, Teradyne und Etsy aufwärts. Heute Abend stehen die Zahlen von Meta und Microsoft im Fokus. Außerhalb des Tech-Sektors fallen die Reaktionen uneinheitlich aus. Während Starbucks von den Zahlen profitiert, sehen wir bei Booking Holdings, Visa und Mondelez eine leicht schwächere Tendenz. Was die Wirtschaft betrifft, melden die USA für das zweite Quartal ein reales Wachstum von robusten 3%. Die Wall Street hatte nur 2,5% angepeilt. Auch die FED-Tagung steht im Fokus, mit der Entscheidung um 20 Uhr MEZ. Die Wall Street geht davon aus, dass die Zinsen beibehalten werden. The Rhetorik dürfte jedoch in Richtung der Tauben tendieren. Ein Podcast - featured by Handelsblatt. +++Erhalte einen exklusiven 15% Rabatt auf Saily eSIM Datentarife!

Star Copper Corp CEO Darryl Jones joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company's ongoing 2025 drill program at its flagship Star Project in British Columbia's renowned Golden Triangle. The latest results, particularly from Hole C, build confidence in the continuity of copper mineralization at depth and support the presence of a large-scale porphyry copper system across the broader deposit area. The current drill campaign is targeting both lateral and vertical extensions of mineralized zones identified in over $10 million of historical exploration, including copper-gold intercepts from prior drill holes. The company is focusing on the Star Main zone, a 500-by-500 metre geochemical target, along with two adjacent targets—Star North and Star East—which show similar geophysical and geochemical signatures. All three areas are within a three-kilometre corridor that the company believes may represent a larger porphyry cluster. Jones also discussed ongoing fieldwork to prepare drill pads and trails, including at a grassroots area called Copper Creek. He emphasised that the Star Project is accessible year-round, which allows for sustained activity through late in the year. The 2025 campaign includes up to 4,000 metres of drilling across six primary holes (A through F). With Holes A, B, and C now complete and samples regularly being sent for assaying, crews are nearing the halfway mark in the program. Meanwhile, surface fieldwork continues in parallel, with mapping and trenching supporting drill targeting and geological interpretation. Star Copper is also benefitting from a recently extended Multi-Year Area-Based exploration permit, which allows for up to 200 holes, 5 km of roads, and expanded surface trenching. This regulatory greenlight significantly enhances the company's flexibility and capacity for future drill programs across the expansive property. Jones emphasized that these developments mark an exciting phase for Star Copper as it works to systematically unlock the full potential of a prospective, copper-rich porphyry system in one of Canada's most prolific mining regions. #proactiveinvestors #starcoppercorp #cse #stcu #otcqx #stcuf #CopperMining #CriticalMinerals #StarCopperCorp #DarrylJones #MineralExploration #DrillProgram #PorphyryDeposit #GreenTechMetals #ResourceInvesting #CanadianMining #JuniorMining #MiningUpdates
My guest today is Melanie Moses, a Professor of Computer Science at the University of New Mexico, an External Faculty at the Santa Fe Institute, and Chair of the New Mexico AI Consortium. Melanie's work spans a wide range of disciplines all unified by her deep understanding of complexity theory.In our conversation, Melanie and I explore how scaling theory reveals surprising patterns across nature, technology, and society. We discuss what decentralized systems like ant colonies can teach us about building more robust AI, and what the immune system tells us about information networks. We also delve into the costs of building scalable infrastructure, and why we might need new approaches to governance that can scale with our global challenges. Finally, we explore whether there could ever be a universal scaling law and what young researchers should know about pursuing interdisciplinary paths. I hope you enjoy our discussion.You can follow me on X (@ProfSchrepel) and BlueSky (@ProfSchrepel).References:Melanie Moses' Biological Computation Lab https://moseslab.cs.unm.eduMetabolic Scaling From Individuals to Societies (PhD, 1993) https://www.unm.edu/~melaniem/DISSERTATION_MEM.pdfCities as Organisms: Allometric Scaling of Urban Road Networks (2008) https://www.jtlu.org/index.php/jtlu/article/view/29Biologically inspired design principles for Scalable, Robust, Adaptive, Decentralized search and automated response (RADAR) (2011) https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/5954663
AOTI Inc. CEO Dr. Mike Griffiths joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a key milestone in the company's commercial expansion strategy: the successful approval of a new Provider ID in California. This designation allows AOTI to begin securing insurance coverage and reimbursement for its patented TWO2® Topical Wound Oxygen therapy in the country's most populous Medicaid market, paving the way for broader growth in late 2026. California represents a major strategic opportunity, with 14.7 million individuals—or 38% of the population—covered under Medi-Cal, the state's Medicaid program. The addition of California marks the third state in 2025 where AOTI has secured provider status, aligning with the company's guidance of adding two to three states annually as part of its U.S. expansion. Griffiths emphasized that the TWO2® therapy, which is non-invasive and self-administered at home, has been clinically proven to significantly reduce the recurrence of Diabetic Foot Ulcers. Robust randomized controlled trials and real-world evidence have shown an 88% reduction in hospitalizations and a 71% reduction in amputations over 12 months—outcomes that not only improve quality of life but reduce healthcare system burden. Financially, AOTI reported 26% revenue growth in the first three months of the period and 37% growth for the six months ended March 31, 2025—driven by strong post-IPO momentum. Despite these short-term headwinds, AOTI remains confident in its long-term growth trajectory, forecasting mid-teens revenue growth and low double-digit adjusted EBITDA margins for FY 2025. The company views current macroeconomic challenges as transitional and reaffirmed its commitment to executing its strategic plan and expanding market access for its differentiated wound care technology. #proactiveinvestors #aotiinc #aim #aoti #DiabeticFootUlcers #WoundCare #OxygenTherapy #HealthcareInnovation #Medicaid #VeteransHealth #CaliforniaHealthcare #ProactiveInvestors

Canagold Resources Ltd (TSX:CCM, OTCQB:CRCUF) CEO Catalin Kilofliski talked with Proactive about the company's newly released feasibility study for its New Polaris gold project. The study outlines robust project economics, with Kilofliski confirming it would generate around $1.1 billion in free cash flow at current gold prices. Even at a conservative gold price of $2,500 per ounce, the project still delivers a 30% after-tax internal rate of return (IRR) and an NPV of $425 million. “Those are outstanding results,” said Kilofliski. Notably, these figures exclude any upside from antimony – a critical metal present in the deposit. The CEO highlighted the significance of the 5,000 tonnes of antimony in the current mine plan, estimating its value between $200 million and $300 million, and emphasised the strategic importance of non-Chinese supply sources: “Up until recently… 90% of antimony used globally is produced in China.” Kilofliski also detailed Canagold's collaborative approach to permitting with the Taku River Tlingit First Nation, noting a decade-long relationship and an active technical working group. Key near-term milestones include filing the environmental assessment later this year, while long-term goals include adding green energy and expanding gold and antimony resources.

New Found Gold Corp CEO Keith Boyle joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the results of the company's Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for the AFZ Core zone at its Queensway Gold Project, located near Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador. The report marks the first comprehensive look at the economic viability of the project and highlights its potential to become a low-cost, high-margin gold producer. The PEA outlines a 15-year life-of-mine (LOM) with total gold production of 1.5 million ounces, averaging an all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of US$1,256/oz and a total cash cost of US$1,085/oz. In a base-case scenario using a gold price of US$2,500/oz, the after-tax NPV5% is $743 million with an IRR of 56.3%. When modeled at a higher gold price of US$3,300/oz, the NPV increases dramatically to $1.45 billion, and IRR rises to an impressive 197%. The company is targeting initial gold production by Q3 2027, pending regulatory approvals. Phase 1 construction is expected to begin that same year. In preparation, New Found Gold is advancing an aggressive 70,000-metre drilling program aimed at upgrading and expanding its initial mineral resource estimate (MRE). Further work includes environmental baseline studies, engineering trade-offs, and project definition activities. Boyle also emphasized the expansion potential at Queensway, citing more than 110 km of strike length for future exploration and the opportunity for camp-scale development beyond the current resource area. This PEA positions New Found Gold to transition into a significant gold producer in Atlantic Canada, aligning with its strategic vision of building and operating a world-class gold mine in Newfoundland. #proactiveinvestors #newfoundgoldcorp #tsxv #nfg #nyseamerican #nfgc #gold #mining #NewFoundGold #KeithBoyle #MiningNews #GoldExploration #PEAResults #NewfoundlandMining #ResourceDevelopment #JuniorMining #ProactiveInvestors

Second-quarter sales of new autos were mixed following a spike in March and April ahead of tariffs taking effect, while incentives were robust during the Independence Day holiday weekend. Most major manufacturers saw a rise in vehicle sales in Q2, with General Motors and Hyundai Motor America reporting the best first half of the year in terms of sales. June, however, marked a slowdown in sales for some automakers. The July 4 holiday brought a mix of 0% financing and cash back offers, with incentive spend varied by brand. Meanwhile, credit unions are putting excess lending capacity to work, evidenced by an uptick in application volume at fintech Origence, which provides technology and financing capabilities for credit unions. While application volume rose year to date through June, the fintech's ratio of funded loans to applications fell due to higher loan-to-value ratios in the market as consumers lean on longer-term loans to manage monthly payments. Alloya Corporate Federal Credit Union issued its first asset-backed securitization deal on July 1, a $150 million transaction backed by prime auto loans issued by Blaze Credit Union, Consumers Credit Union and Interra Credit Union. In this episode of the “Weekly Wrap,” Auto Finance News Editor Amanda Harris, Senior Associate Editor Truth Headlam and Associate Editor Aidan Bush discuss the latest updates on sales, incentives, funding and capital markets for the week ended July 4.

So you've scaled the mountain, built the nest egg, and maybe even shouted “I'm done!” across a pristine beach... now what? In today's Stacking Benjamins episode, Joe Saul-Sehy convenes a roundtable of heavy-hitters to tackle the most misunderstood phase of money management: decumulation—a.k.a. the art of spending what you've worked so hard to save. Whether you're staring down retirement or already deep into your golden years, you'll hear candid, practical insights from three financial thought leaders who specialize in making your money last. Joining Joe are Dana Anspach, retirement planning expert and founder of Sensible Money, Karsten Jeske (aka “Big ERN” from Early Retirement Now), and Frank Vasquez, aka Uncle Frank, host of Risk Parity Radio. Together, they bring decades of academic research, professional experience, and plain old common sense to questions like: What's the real safe withdrawal rate—and why does it depend on more than just spreadsheets? Should you chase simplicity or embrace complexity in managing retirement funds? What role do annuities and guaranteed income play in reducing late-life anxiety? How do you plan for cognitive decline without spiraling into existential dread? What's the difference between spending confidently... and spending carelessly? You'll also hear why lumpy expenses, long-term care surprises, and behavioral quirks can trip up even the best-laid plans—and how to bulletproof your strategy now. And yes, we get nerdy. Risk parity, sequence of return risk, and portfolio glidepaths all make guest appearances—but always with your favorite Stacking Benjamins charm and plain-English style. Because retirement doesn't need to be scary... but it does need to be intentional.

This isn't just about stretching your dollars—it's about building a life worth spending them on.

In this episode, Amir sits down with Anthony Jules, Co-Founder and CEO of Robust.AI, to explore how scaling lessons from the early days of Sapient translate into today's rapidly evolving world of AI and robotics. Anthony shares stories from growing a company from 3 to 4,000 people, what scale teaches you about communication and change, and how being ruthlessly honest about your business creates strategic advantage. From the hype vs. reality of AI to how hardware can stabilize innovation in robotics, this conversation is rich with insights for technologists, entrepreneurs, and leaders navigating change.
Dünya bildiğiniz ve sevdiğiniz gibi değil. İçinden geçtiğimiz bu an, eski dünya ile virüs sonrası dünya arasındaki o kırılma noktasını işaret ediyor. Küresel sistemlerimizin kırılganlığı acı verici şekilde ortaya çıkarken, merkeziyetçiliğin ve tepeden yönetimin getirdiği finansal ve toplumsal sorunlarla yüzleşiyoruz. Karmaşık sorunları çözmek için eski, kırılgan ve hata noktalarıyla dolu "eski sistemler" yetersiz kalıyor.Artık yeni bir düşünce biçimi şart. Virüs sonrası dönemin araçları şeffaf, açık ve özgürleştirici olmalı. Kapı bekçileri ve sansür, sorunları çözmek yerine daha da kötüleştirecek. Bitcoin, internet, açık kaynak yazılımlar, vatandaş gazeteciliği gibi yeni araçlar ve anlayışlar, kırılgan sistemlerden uzaklaşıp daha sağlam ve hatta anti-kırılgan yapılar inşa etmemizi sağlayacak.Bu geçiş kolay olmayacak; gelecek karanlık ve engebeli olabilir, özellikle de yalnızca eski dünyayı biliyorsanız. Ancak karmaşık sorunlar için aşağıdan yukarıya, organik çözümlerin ortaya çıkmasına ihtiyacımız var. Kişisel özgürlükleri korumak ve kişisel sorumluluğu teşvik etmek her zamankinden önemli. Bu podcast, bu zorlu geçişi, yeni araçları ve yeni düşünce biçimini anlamanıza yardımcı olmayı amaçlıyor. Fragile (kırılgan), Robust (sağlam) ve Anti-Fragile (anti-kırılgan) sistemler arasındaki farkı ve neden değişimin kaçınılmaz olduğunu keşfedin.Kaynak
