Throughout the discussion, the guests consider how businesses can align people, data and technology to remain competitive in a changing landscape.

In this episode of American Potential, host David From talks with Darren Selnick, Senior Advisor for Concerned Veterans for America and one of the architects of the VA MISSION Act, about the next big step in veterans' healthcare reform — the Veterans Access Act. Selnick reveals how bureaucratic failures and delays under the current administration have left veterans waiting months for care, forcing some to travel hundreds of miles or worse, leading to preventable tragedies, including suicides. He explains how the Veterans Access Act would enforce timely care — requiring the VA to act within 48 hours for urgent mental health cases, protect veterans' right to choose community care, and stop the VA from hiding or denying eligibility. Selnick also exposes why entrenched bureaucrats resist reform and how grassroots action can push Congress to finally deliver on America's promise to its veterans. If you care about veterans' healthcare, mental health, and VA reform, this episode is essential listening.

In honor of Veterans Month, the OneHaas Alumni Podcast is pleased to welcome Cory Boatwright to the show. Cory is a Senior Advisor of Workforce Development, Strategies, and Programs for Hiring Our Heroes. Growing up in a working class home in Chico, California, Cory always knew he wanted to go to college, but coming from limited means made that a challenge. So he decided to start his career by first joining the military – a decision that sparked a lifetime passion for service and social impact work. Cory tells host Sean Li how his time in the Air Force prepared him for a successful career in business, what it felt like to fulfill his childhood dream of attending Haas, and how he's giving back to the veteran community through his work at Hiring Our Heroes. *OneHaas Alumni Podcast is a production of Haas School of Business and is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:On how the Air Force prepared him for a career in business“ I always knew that I wanted to be like a business person, right? And I kind of just made up this person, this fictitious person of who I wanted to be. And I took characteristics of people from books, magazines, shows, and stuff like that, of who I wanted to be as a business person. And so one of the things that I thought was like, okay, well, a business person has to be able to be a public speaker and speak in front of people…And so I was like, well, how do I do that? I don't have the skills to do that. So I joined the Air Force as a military broadcaster. I was like, I'm just gonna throw myself into this.”On his switch from the investment banking world to military programming“ There's a role that came open at LinkedIn to build out their military recruiting programs. I had zero experience as a recruiter. I wasn't a recruiter, but I was like, I'd really like to work with the military community. And so I talked to a friend of mine who owned a nonprofit… And he's like, Cory, what do you do for free? And I was like, I help vets get jobs and get into school. And he's like, you should figure out how to get paid to do that.”On fulfilling his longtime dream of attending Haas“...Immediately I was with my people and I was like, no doubt I'm coming here.  Just a huge sense of belonging. I went there and basically I was able to, between like the core courses, which every one of them really resonated with me, I loved the curriculum of the program, but also when it came to electives, I was able to build out a learning path for myself that was more geared towards buying a business than it was doing a startup.”On the work he's doing at Hiring Our Heroes“ They come into our ecosystem and we're making sure that we're getting them to the places that they need to be. For instance, if somebody has a housing issue, they don't have housing or they're about to lose their housing, or they can't pay their utility bills, like that person's gonna be really difficult to help get a job because their basic needs aren't being met at that moment. And so we make sure that they're gonna get to the right people to be able to help them fix that issue and then come back into our orbit so that we can help them connect to meaningful employment. Not just jobs, but like jobs that matter, jobs that are gonna be sustainable, jobs that are gonna have good wages and benefits and stuff like that.”Show Links:LinkedIn profileHiring Our Heroes websiteCory's book recommendation: HBR Guide to Buying a Small Business: Think Big, Buy Small, Own Your Own CompanySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/onehaas/donations

In der neuen Ausgabe spricht Host Anna Engelke mit dem Sicherheitsexperten Christian Mölling über die europäische Rüstungsindustrie. Allerdings sollte man wohl eher von der "Rüstungsindustrie in Europa" sprechen. Denn der Senior Advisor am European Policy Center sagt: "Dass auf dem Kontinent Europa die Grenzen auch bei der Rüstungsindustrie gefallen wären, das ist eben nicht der Fall." Mölling erklärt, wie es um einen engeren Zusammenschluss der Rüstungsindustrieunternehmen in Europa bestellt ist und warum Deutschland aus seiner Sicht in dem Bereich noch zu langsam unterwegs ist. Der Sicherheitsexperte benennt Probleme und Herausforderungen und beleuchtet die Zusammenarbeit mit den USA in Zeiten von US-Präsident Trump. Wie die Rüstungsindustrie in Europa in zehn Jahren aussehe, hänge, so Mölling, im Wesentlichen davon ab, welche Impulse aus Deutschland kommen. Bei einer Tagung der Bundeswehrführung hat Bundeskanzler Merz die Zielrichtung vorgegeben und mehr Tempo gefordert: "Wir müssen schnellstmöglich verteidigungsfähig werden." Die aktuelle Lage in der Ukraine fasst Stefan Niemann zusammen. Russland setzt dort zunehmend modernisierte Gleitbomben ein. Und versucht damit u.a., gezielt die Energie-Infrastruktur zu zerstören. In und rund um die Stadt Pokrowsk leisten ukrainische Soldaten erbitterten Widerstand. Noch ist die Stadt nicht gefallen, es könnte aber aus Sicht von Experten bald soweit sein.

L'episodio di oggi introduce la nuova serie del podcast intitolata: “Game Changer”. Qui non si fanno PR.Qui si parla di scelte vere, di tensioni strategiche, di futuro industriale — con il coraggio di dire le cose come stanno. Quando accendiamo il microfono, lo facciamo per una ragione precisa:le persone che invitiamo non sono ospiti, ma protagonisti.Founder, CEO, innovatori — scelti perché stanno facendo, hanno fatto, o faranno la differenza. In questa puntata, parliamo di un'impresa italiana che ha cambiato le regole del gioco nella ristorazione digitale, per voce del suo CEO Domenico Palmisani. Questa è la storia di iPratico. Fondata a Lecco, è una tech company nata per rivoluzionare il modo in cui ristoranti, bar e locali gestiscono le proprie attività.È stata tra la prima azienda al mondo a introdurre un POS su iPad, trasformando un semplice tablet in uno strumento professionale capace di gestire l'intero ciclo operativo: dagli ordini alla cassa, dal magazzino all'analisi dei dati. Oggi conta oltre 9.000 attività clienti in Italia e all'estero, una crescita del 21% nel 2024, e una squadra oltre 50 professionisti che ogni giorno trasformano la tecnologia in un alleato concreto per i ristoratori. La vera innovazione, per iPratico, non è nella tecnologia in sé,ma nel modo in cui potenzia le persone e permette loro di concentrarsi su ciò che conta davvero: offrire un servizio impeccabile. A guidare la conversazione di oggi è Marco Mizzau — già CEO di aziende complesse, oggi Senior Advisor per fondi di Private Equity e banche d'affari.Un investitore con il fiuto per le imprese che cambiano le regole del gioco. Marco ha visto cosa succede quando visione e capitale si incontrano… o si scontrano. E come sempre, lo farà senza filtri. Se siete qui, non è per ascoltare.È per capire chi cambierà davvero il business italiano. Questo episodio è una produzione Zero IN – Sharing Knowledge. Siamo sempre alla ricerca di nuove voci e storie da raccontare.Per maggiori informazioni, visitate zeroin.it o scrivete a segreteria@zeroin.it.

Synopsis: Host Rahul Chaturvedi sits down with Geoffrey Duyk, Chief Executive Officer of Grove Biopharma, for a wide-ranging conversation on navigating today's biotech macro headwinds and building companies that can translate breakthrough science into real patient impact. Dr. Duyk traces his journey from Harvard/Millennium/Exelixis operator to TPG investor and back to company creation, explaining how board dynamics, capital cycles, and policy shifts shape execution. They dig into why this cycle feels uniquely tough—patent cliffs, reimbursement uncertainty, NIH pressures—and who funds innovation in the meantime. Duyk outlines root causes of R&D inefficiency (misaligned capital vs. 20-year timelines, shaky preclinical predictability, costly trials, underused real-world data) and makes the case for rebuilding public trust and STEM education. Then, a deep dive on Grove Biopharma: precision polymer science that creates antibody-like, fully synthetic, cell-permeable protein mimetics to tackle historically “intractable” intracellular protein–protein interactions. Duyk shares design principles, why modular/orthogonal chemistry matters, predictable pharmacology, and lessons from fundraising and board management—plus why he's helping grow a Chicago-centered biotech ecosystem.
