What does it take to transform a small regional traditional energy provider into a global renewable energy powerhouse? In today's episode, Hoda and Simon are joined by the Chair of the Governance Board for Sustainable Energy for All and former Enel CEO Francesco Starace, who led the transformation of Enel from its start in electric generation in Italy to become a world leader in all renewable technologies, including wind, solar, hydroelectric, and geothermal, operating in 30 markets.

On today's Redefiners episode, Simon and Hoda sit down with David Miliband, President and CEO of the International Rescue Committee (IRC). David oversees the agency's humanitarian relief operations in more than 50 war-affected countries and its refugee resettlement and assistance programs in 28 United States cities. David shares the journey of how the IRC was founded by Albert Einstein and has since grown to help 33 million people in countries affected by crisis in 2023 alone. He talks about how the IRC prioritizes its limited resources to help those in need and how he manages through the complexities of not only providing aid to clients living in war-torn areas, but also of working with a host of partners often with competing agendas. He also digs into the importance of trust and what leaders can do to build or rebuild trust with their organizations, partners, and clients/customers. We'll also hear from Dee Symons, a Managing Director in our London office, who will highlight why trust is such a critical component of an effective team, and how leaders can best foster a culture of trust.

Unless you've somehow avoided all technology for the past three decades, you've likely used Microsoft products. The company has been a global technology leader since the start of the Digital Revolution and has positioned itself to grow even further as a leader in the future of computing and artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT.    In this special two-part episode of Redefiners, we're joined by Microsoft Vice Chair and President Brad Smith, who in his 30 years with the company has had a front row seat to not only how much the tech industry has changed, but also in how much it's changed business and society in a relatively short timeframe. In fact, The New York Times has called this redefining leader “a de facto ambassador for the technology industry at large.”  We'll talk with Brad about the big shifts in technology and the tech industry he's seen over the past three decades, the critical role of government and regulation when it comes to digital technology, how to find common ground in the cybersecurity threat landscape, and how he develops systems thinking with his team to “inspect the trees” while “analyzing the forest” to identify patterns and better navigate complexity. Brad also talks about Microsoft's commitment to sustainability, which he calls “…the issue of the decade, if not the century.” He likens where we are with sustainability now to where the United States was in 1961 after committing to go to the moon – we may not fully understand the problems we need to solve and we clearly don't have all the answers, but it's critical that we figure it out.   We'll also hear from Maneesh Dube, an Executive Director in our New York office, who explains why finding leaders who are tech-savvy is crucial to the success of your organization.  Be sure to check back for part two of our conversation with Brad in two weeks, where we'll dig into artificial intelligence (AI), productivity, and his thoughts on the need for the tech sector to assume more responsibility and governments to move faster to address the challenges that new technologies are creating.   To learn more about Brad's book, Tools and Weapons: The Promise and the Peril of the Digital Age, visit  https://news.microsoft.com/on-the-issues/tools-and-weapons/.  If you enjoyed this episode, you might also like these Redefiners episodes:  Daring to Build a More Sustainable World with Kate Brandt and Sophia Mendelsohn  Doing Well by Doing Good: Feike Sijbesma, CEO Emeritus of Royal DSM, on the Power of Bold Change  How the Barely Possible Can Overcome the Barely Solvable with First Mode's Chris Voorhees 

Lorenzo Simonelli knows how to lead and transform businesses in times of uncertainty and change. He did it for more than two decades at GE, leading the company's Energy, Transportation, and Consumer & Industrial businesses. As Chairman and CEO of energy technology company Baker Hughes, he's doing it again, helping to redefine the energy sector by accelerating sustainability to decarbonize the energy system. We talk with Lorenzo about how he's using technology to accelerate the transition to more sustainable energy in the 120+ countries in which Baker Hughes operates. We'll also learn the key attributes of what he thinks makes a successful CEO, especially when leading in times of crisis, and how to prepare for unexpected change.    We'll also hear from Wolfgang Bauriedel, a Managing Director in our Boston office. He'll share some lessons from top tech officers on how to unlock real business value through technology transformation.    To hear more from leading tech officers on how they have implemented tech transformation at their organization, and the leadership lessons they have learned along the way, check out our new Tech Officer Vantage Point Video Series.  If you enjoyed this episode, you might also like these Redefiners episodes:  Feeding the World and Protecting the Planet with Yara International CEO Svein Tore Holsether   Trust Your Gut: AXA's Thomas Buberl Talks Transformation and Reinvention  Doing Well by Doing Good: Feike Sijbesma, CEO Emeritus of Royal DSM, on the Power of Bold Change

Topics in this conversation include: Usama Malik discusses the changes that have occurred in business over the last 100-150 years with the incorporation of capitalism, the transformation to big business from local business; the growth of businesses to have larger GDP, in many cases, than smaller countries; and how these changes can impact the world for good when companies focus on being purpose-driven. 6:20Dimitri de Vreeze discusses his role at Royal DSM which has come to stand for “Doing Something Meaningful” and how the public and private sectors joined together during COVID-19 pandemic to produce magical results as well as how that same collaboration can work on behalf of the world to solve other SDGs -- such as zero hunger and climate change -- as companies focus on a balanced combination of people, planet and profit. 15:38Gabriela Cuevas Barron shares her experience in government and how budget is the most important public policy instrument for core national changes as well as how strategic collaboration between businesses and governments provide the opportunity for changes on a global level. 25:10Global health must be addressed with consumers taking a proactive approach to their health, which would lower overall healthcare costs -- making healthcare more accessible for all. 32:31Each speaker shares how their lives and business have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the global changes they believe will take place as a result. 46:56Trade Wins is a podcast designed specifically to be thought-provoking and to provide insights from leading experts to help us navigate today's changing environment.

How do you keep moths from munching on apples? By confusing them with a field full of mating pheromones brewed in a lab.

In this episode Geraldine Matchett Co-CEO and CFO at Royal DSM discusses how the company is putting the focus on UN SDGs where they can have the most impact. DSM started managing their innovation pipeline many years ago to address for example, the nutrition needs they saw developing at the time. Today they are a key contributor in the global fight against malnutrition. Geraldine emphasizes that it is impossible to compensate a company's negative impacts either socially, or on the environment by doing ‘good deeds' elsewhere. The UN SDGs provide a common language and common goals worldwide and an organization must at least be neutral in all of them by making a positive impact where they matter most. Through living their purpose in every strategic decision companies can attract and retain talent and prepare themselves for the challenges ahead.

In this episode, we're talking about stevia - not really the stevia derived from the plant. We're talking about a "stevia" product developed by Cargill and Royal DSM which is the synthetic biology and scientific fermentation of genes and yeast, and it is showing up in our food supply chain as a trademarked product called EverSweet™. This zero-calorie, "non-artificial" sweetener is designed to “urgently advance sugar reduction around the world" and ”to support good health and well being in our societies”. There is no scientific evidence to back up the claim that it supports good health and well being. They claim this product is "sustainable", but it seems more like greenwashing, and there is a lot of money invested into this venture. It begs the question....cui bono? I think you know the answer...but I hope you listen in to find out. Share this episode with someone you love and I'll see you on the other side of the plate. Chow.

“…we're not just about sourcing, we're not just about savings, it's really about having bigger picture strategic impact on the business…” Martha Buffington, Chief Procurement Officer of Royal DSM, a €9 billion global company producing health, nutrition, and sustainable living products to enhance the lives of people and the sustainability of the planet, shares her career purpose and personal goal along her journey from the U.S. to Netherland. As a mentor and supporter of women in business, Martha talks through her overseas experience, the passion for digitalization, and making the world better for people.

Geraldine Matchett Co-CEO and CFO at Royal DSM states why ‘ you cannot be a successful company in a world that fails. Geraldine describes the transformation of DSM from a state mine to a company that sees its purpose ‘to create brighter lives for all' with an emphasis on all – not leaving anybody behind and ensuring a healthy environment  for all to live in. Financial success and positive sustainable corporate impact are not contradicting each other. DSM have embraced the concept for more than 15 years and constantly improved their footprint and at the same time grown profitably. Learn from an impressive female leader how such success can be achieved.

We humans are pretty smart, but sometimes our best solutions to big problems are inspired by nature! We’re talking to scientists about how deep-sea diatoms can inspire more efficient solar panels and how tiny marine plants can lead to boats that float on air… literally. Solutions is made with funding and featuring scientists from 3M, Ascend Performance Materials, Baker Hughes, BASF, Dow, DuPont, Proctor & Gamble, PPG, Royal DSM, SABIC, Solvay, and WL Gore and Associates, none of whom influenced any editorial decisions.

In this episode of Medsider Radio, we're talking with the CEO of Lungpacer Medical, Doug Evans. Lungpacer is developing a novel therapeutic solution that preserves the strength of the diaphragm muscle for critically-ill patients on mechanical ventilation.Doug is also a board member of Intact Vascular, which was acquired by Philips, and the former COO of Kensey Nash. He's a medtech veteran with decades of experience launching startups, developing products, working with payers & regulators, and commercializing novel technologies. Today, we're going to discuss all these topics, and hear more about Lungpacer's impressive technology. But first, here's a bit more about Doug Evans and his background: Doug started his career at GE in business development, and later joined Kensey Nash when it was just a startup with fewer than ten employees. As COO, he led Kensey's growth to over 400 employees, across the span of 20 years, before they were acquired by Royal DSM. After that, Doug began working with other startups like Intact Vascular and TELA Bio.Doug holds a master's degree in electrical engineering and photonics from Penn, as well as an MBA. He knows the medtech startup landscape better than just about anyone, and we're grateful he's sharing his perspective with the Medsider community. Before we jump into the conversation, I wanted to mention a few things:If you're into learning from proven medtech leaders, and want to know when new content and interviews go live, head over to Medsider.com and sign up for our free newsletter.

Ira Pastor, ideaXme life sciences ambassador and founder of Bioquark, interviews, Dr. Marcus Remmers, PhD, Chief Technology Officer at DSM. Ira Pastor comments: As we continue upon our core themes of health, wellness, and longevity, amongst the unique aging demographic shifts occurring in the coming decades, we can’t overlook the importance of the global chemicals industry in coming up with novel solutions for the world's population. Central to the modern world economy, the global chemicals industry comprises a $4 trillion industry which converts a variety of raw materials into more than 70,000 different products. Holistic Health Life sciences chemicals (about 30% of the dollar output of the chemistry business) include a wide variety of differentiated chemical and biological substances, pharmaceuticals, diagnostics, animal health products, vitamins, and agricultural products. Speciality chemicals, representing another 10%, are a broad range of higher value materials used on the basis of their performance or function, and may include, but are not limited to such classes as adhesives, colors, fragrances, industrial gases, lubricants, paints, polymers, and surfactants. Royal DSM, commonly known as DSM, is a Dutch multinational active in the fields Nutrition, Health and Sustainable Living. Headquartered in the Netherlands, DSM employs over 21,000 people, in approximately 50 countries, and has annual sales of around €9 billion. Dr. Marcus Remmers: We’re honored today to be joined by Dr. Marcus Remmers, Chief Technology Officer at DSM, who is responsible for DSM’s global Science and Technology portfolio. Dr. Remmers graduated in Chemistry at the Universities of Münster and Freiburg, completed his Doctorate Thesis at the Max-Planck-Institute for Polymer Chemistry in Mainz, and did post graduate research at Stanford, Caltech and Cambridge. Dr. Remmers has strong knowledge and experience in polymer and life sciences R&D, business operations, business development, strategy and change management. Dr. Remmers started his career with Hoechst/Intervet in several managerial roles. In 2001, he joined Merial Ltd. (the animal health division of Merck, and then Sanofi), where he had roles in Business Development, Country Management, Project and Portfolio Management and R&D in Pharma and Biologics. In April 2017, Dr. Remmers became Chief Technology Officer of DSM, where he works to secure the company’s technology position and at the same time execute on a mission for "purpose-led innovation", developing disruptive business models for not just profits, but for sustainability, where future leaders will need purpose in their hearts, not just their heads, as they develop the next generation of products for humanity. On this show we will hear from Dr. Remmers about: His background, how he became interested in science, in chemistry, and ultimately how he worked his way into the leadership roles of some of the world's largest chemical and pharma companies. His experience/learnings/contrasts between the pharmaceuticals business and the chemicals business. The importance of AI/data management in the development of new chemical products and holistic nutrition such as in the case of DSM’s "personalized nutrition platform". The topic of “Aging in Place” from a chemicals industry perspective and how the development of materials that are lighter, stronger and more durable, can enhance the ability of the elderly to live in their own homes and communities safely, independently, and comfortably. About the role of sustainability in a purpose-led, innovation focused organization. This interview is in American English. Credits: Ira Pastor interview video, text, and audio.

Show #784   Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Wednesday 20th May 2020. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   AUDI E-TRON S POSSIBLY SPIED TESTING AT THE NURBURGRING "A new spy video shot at the Nürburgring shows what may very well be the E-Tron electric SUV in the hotter specification.  While we can’t be entirely sure this is indeed the high-performance version, this would make the most sense since it’s too early for Audi’s Mercedes EQC-rival to start preparing for a mid-cycle update." says Quattrodaily: "Of course, the biggest change has occurred underneath the familiar skin where Audi has added a third electric motor. Mounted at the back, it helps the E-Tron S models hit 62 mph (100 km/h) in four and a half seconds."   2021 AUDI E-TRON GT SPIED AT PORSCHE'S DEVELOPMENT CENTRE "You won’t need a crystal ball to figure out what the swirly camouflage is hiding since the E-Tron GT production model will remain faithful to the concept before it. Audi will be making some changes for the road-going car as the prototypes have conventional door handles and larger side mirrors. The front fascia might eschew the concept’s intricate grille design for something less flashy, but that’s about it." says Motor1.com: "Technical specifications should be quite similar to those of the Taycan, but we’re expecting Ingolstadt’s electric sedan to be a tad cheaper and possibly start at under $100,000. It remains to be seen whether Audi will follow Porsche’s approach by prioritizing the high-end versions before coming out with the lesser models. An official premiere is scheduled to take place towards the end of the year ahead and customer deliveries should commence early 2021. It will compete not just with its sister model from Stuttgart, but also the next-generation Jaguar XJ and the first-ever Mercedes EQS, not to mention the Tesla Model S."   https://www.motor1.com/photo/4998524/2021-audi-e-tron-gt-spy-photo/   LIGHTYEAR INKS DEAL FOR PRODUCTION OF LONG-RANGE EV'S SOLAR ROOF "Dutch startup Lightyear has secured a supplier for its long-range electric car's solar roof. Royal DSM will partner with Lightyear to scale up production of the roof system. The two companies will also look into solar-roof applications for other cars, as well as vans and buses, Lightyear said in a press release" according to Green Car Reports: "The roof consists of 53 square feet of solar cells protected by double-curved safety glass. Royal DSM will supply a back sheet that moves electrical connections behind the cells, freeing up more space for capturing sunlight. This will also reduce electrical losses, leading to a 3% gain in power output over other designs, the company claims. Lightyear was founded by members of a winning World Solar Challenge team, with the goal of applying solar technology to production electric cars. The Lightyear One electric car is aiming for 450 miles of range on the European WLTP cycle (which tends to be more optimistic than the U.S. EPA testing cycle). While the car does have a battery pack, as well as aerodynamic bodywork, it is designed to rely heavily on the solar roof to achieve that range."   https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1128169_lightyear-inks-deal-for-production-of-long-range-ev-s-solar-roof   MUSK ANNOUNCES TESLA'S FULL SELF-DRIVING WILL COST $1000 MORE IN JULY "Tesla is raising the price of its "self-driving" option on its electric vehicles worldwide starting with a $1,000 (£820) hike. Founder Elon Musk tweeted that the price "will continue to rise" as its technology improves." according to BBC News: "The self-driving add-on will cost $8,000 when the price rise kicks in on 1 July."   Elon tweeted: ""The FSD price will continue to rise as the software gets closer to full self-driving capability with regulatory approval," Mr Musk said in a series of tweets on Monday. "[At] that point, the value of FSD is probably somewhere in excess of $100,000.""   https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-52703767   PAST PEAK OIL? INDUSTRY HIT BY WEAK DEMAND FINALLY FACES THREAT FROM ELECTRIC CARS "Oil companies may be facing uncertainty as the coronavirus pandemic triggers a collapse in demand for their products, but automakers are betting the crisis will help accelerate an electric future. With economies reeling from lockdowns to curb the virus, the sharpest plunge in oil prices in two decades has slashed the cost of filling up a tank of gas, eroding some of the incentive to make the switch to cleaner fuels."  writes Autoblog: "Looking ahead, cuts in capital spending forced upon energy companies as their revenues crumble could tighten supply enough to cause a spike in oil prices, making electric vehicles more attractive just as automakers ramp up production, analysts say.With fuel for road transport accounting for about half of all oil demand, the possibility of a faster-than-expected switch to EVs in the wake of the pandemic is one of the main reasons some forecasts for a peak have been brought forward. Global oil demand hit a record of just over 100 million barrels per day (bpd) in 2019."   https://www.autoblog.com/2020/05/19/peak-oil-demand-wanes-electric-vehicles-rise/   RENAULT-NISSAN-MITSUBISHI TO UNVEIL STRATEGIC PLAN "Automakers Renault, Nissan and Mitsubishi may unveil next week a new strategic plan to boost synergies and repair their troubled alliance as the coronavirus pandemic lashes the industry." according to the Economic Times. While Automotive NEws thinks that Nissan could be slowly backing out of Europe: "Europe accounts for only about one-tenth of Nissan's global business by volume and has "little prospects for growth and profitability," as one insider put it. Under the new working relationship with Renault, Nissan would take the lead in Europe on crossovers and SUVs, which the sources said would be available in gasoline engine, hybrid and full-electric versions. It would operate as a "follower" in commercial vans and small city cars, using versions of vehicles produced by Renault. The arrangement would allow the two partners to share technologies and manufacturing capacity, while keeping advanced technology and product development separate from each other to "keep our design, engineering and brands distinctive from each other," one of the sources said. However, the company is keen to maintain a presence in the region, albeit a reduced one."   https://europe.autonews.com/automakers/nissans-survival-plan-europe-suvs-and-sharing-renault   NEW STANDARDS RELEASED FOR ELECTRIC CAR BATTERIES "China released mandatory safety regulations related to electric vehicles, batteries and electric buses on Tuesday, which analysts say will help improve the industry's manufacturing standards and relieve customer safety concerns." reports China Daily: "They emphasize the electrical safety and functional safety requirements and increase the requirements for thermal event alarm signaling in battery systems, which should provide drivers and passengers with adequate safety warnings. The standards also put higher requirements on battery safety, and emphasize an improvement in battery system tests covering thermal diffusion, external fire, mechanical shock, simulated collision and humidity cycling, external short circuit, and overheating. It specifies batteries must be able to withstand at least five minutes of overheating without causing a fire or explosion, allowing drivers and passengers sufficient time to get out of the vehicle."   https://global.chinadaily.com.cn/a/202005/18/WS5ec1e22aa310a8b241156558.html   UK’S FIRST CAR BATTERY ‘GIGAFACTORY’ TO BE BUILT BY TWO STARTUPS "Two British startups have announced plans to invest as much as £4bn in building the UK’s first large-scale battery factory, in a move that could prove a major boost to the country’s struggling car industry." writes The Guardian today: "AMTE Power and Britishvolt have signed a memorandum of understanding saying they will work together on plans for a plant to make lithium ion batteries.  Lars Carlstrom, the chief executive of Britishvolt, said the companies had an ambition to build facilities producing batteries with capacity of as much as 30 gigawatt hours (GWh) a year, which would be roughly equivalent to the joint Tesla-Panasonic Gigafactory in Nevada. A factory of that size would create as many as 4,000 jobs, he said. The government-backed Faraday Institution estimates 130 GWh of annual capacity will be required by 2040 if the UK is to retain a large automotive sector."   https://www.theguardian.com/business/2020/may/20/uk-first-car-battery-gigafactory-amte-power-britishvolt?CMP=share_btn_tw   XPENG'S P7 LIGHTS UP THE NIGHT WITH A SYNCHRONIZED MUSIC & LIGHT SHOW "Xpeng Motors has already begun taking orders for their highly anticipated long-range sports sedan, the P7. With customer deliveries set to begin in June, Xpeng is showing off a special feature that the P7 will have; a synchronized light and music show." writers TOm Moloughney for InsideEVs: "The P7 has a strip of LED lights that extend across the entire front of the vehicle. Using those LEDs, as well as the lower driving lights, the vehicle performs a virtual "dance", similar to the Tesla Model X's light show. Initially, when P7 deliveries begin next month, the vehicle will come with a couple of simple lighting modes. However, Xpeng is going to use OTA updates to add more complex songs and light shows for the owners to select from"   https://insideevs.com/news/423962/xpeng-p7-programmable-light-show/   QUESTION OF THE WEEK   Should Dyson have continued to make a £150,000 EV, or should we only make EVs realistic?

The head of the World Economic Forum says it's “reassuring" that U.S. President Donald Trump and climate activist Greta Thunberg will both return to its annual meeting in Davos this year, noting that concerns about the environment will be a key topic.WEF founder Klaus Schwab sees vast changes in business, society and culture over the 50 years since he created the yearly gathering in the Swiss Alps, which initially was a forum for business leaders but now is a key stop for policymakers and activists as well.Following another year of extreme heat, out-of-control wildfires and melting ice sheets, environmental issues are considered to be the top five long-term risks confronting the global economy, WEF said last week, citing a survey of more than 750 decision-makers.It said catastrophic trends like global warming, climate change and the extinction of animal species would top the agenda at the meeting that begins Tuesday.The forum is shifting its focus of recent years from how technology is transforming lives to the environment and responsible business practices that promote jobs, fight climate change and work for social good along with profit-making.The focus on environment could make for an uncomfortable subject for Trump, whose administration has called for expanded use of carbon-spewing coal, stripped away environmental protections and played down concerns among scientists about man-made climate change. Trump has also moved to take the U.S. out of the landmark 2015 Paris accord to fight climate change.Schwab says Trump is welcome because of his role on the world stage while Thunberg will keep the focus on the environment. Both will speak Tuesday on the opening day.“I think both voices are necessary," Schwab said Sunday in an interview with The Associated Press. “The environment will play a particularly important role during this meeting.”Schwab pointed to the forum's 160 “lighthouse” projects on inclusion and equality; economic development; technology governance; regional development; corporate leadership and ecology, including a project to plant a trillion trees.“So if Greta comes this year, she will see that we have made substantial progress,” he said, alluding to her debut at the forum last year.Time magazine chose Thunberg as its “Person of the Year” for 2019.Schwab claimed the forum has helped air concerns about the environment since the 1970s, but said public awareness about climate issues has now exploded.“Now we have recognized the urgency, because we know the window to act (on climate change) is closing,” he said, adding he hoped to inject "this sense of urgency into the meeting.”He said many companies are increasingly seeing the benefits of “ESG” — environmental, social and governance — concerns in their business models."Companies recognize ... doing good ... it's a precondition for some long-term survival," Schwab said.On Friday, Schwab and the chairmen of Bank of America and Dutch nutrition company Royal DSM sent a joint open letter to corporate leaders on hand this year to set “a target to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 or sooner” if their companies haven't done so already.The forum chief said nearly all European Union leaders will be on hand this year, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel. He said the EU has a chance to lay out its vision for the future and turn the corner after three years of haggling over Britain's departure from the bloc, which comes at the end of this month.He also brushed aside critics who have faulted the forum as an overly exclusive vacation for the world's out-of-touch elites.“If I am particularly proud of something during the last 50 years, it is of having created many years ago the community of young leaders," Schwab said, citing 10,000 young “Global Shapers” in over 400 cities who he said are engaged in issues on the ground. “We try — and I think quite successfully — to integrate the bottom-up, young generation very much.”The Davos gath...
