David Bortolussi, CEO of The a2 Milk Company, tells us how the premium dairy pioneer has put the global pandemic in the rearview and is aiming for a $2 billion sales target. He shares the inside story of coming back from "rapid decline" to share price gains. Find out why David isn’t worried about declining Chinese birth rates, and how the company is shifting its strategy towards e-commerce. David shares a2’s goal to reach profitability in the US by 2027, helped along by the “Make America Healthy Again” movement, and the challenges of getting traction in India. How did a2 use the My Little Pony brand to blow up on Chinese social network RedNote? How did it become the first-ever dairy partner of the Australian Open? And are plant-based milks actually a threat to dairy? Plus, with a strong position in the global infant formula market, learn why David now believes "senior nutrition" for the over-60s is the next big opportunity.

Is 3% giving Kiwis a false sense of retirement security? We unpack the growing debate around lifting KiwiSaver contribution rates and comparisons being drawn to Australia’s 12% super system. Would higher compulsory contributions better prepare us for retirement, or risk widening inequality by pushing more people to opt out? This bite explores whether we’re really ready to contribute more — and what it would take to make it fair. This bite is from our episode ‘The KiwiSaver wake-up call’.

Was the 3% contribution rate always wrong? We sit down with Greg Smith from Generate KiwiSaver and Matt Macpherson from Sharesies to discuss the state of retirement. KiwiSaver membership is growing for both Generate and Sharesies, but Greg and Matt say that there’s a lot of work to do at the national level. So why did the latest budget halve government incentives, and what’s happening with the higher contribution rates? Why are so many of us opting out of KiwiSaver altogether, while Australia sits on a $4.5 trillion retirement pool? Hear how more New Zealanders are actively switching their providers, and whether it’s time to close the "total remuneration" loophole.

CEO Naomi James joins us to discuss leading a critical reset for Ryman Healthcare. The healthcare and property hybrid holds over $12 billion in assets, but the post-covid era has exposed its over-reliance on the housing market. In this episode, Naomi reveals Ryman’s big shifts to achieve its first positive free cash flow in over a decade—and the tough calls along the way, including closing care centres and resetting the balance sheet. With the 80-plus population set to double by 2050, is our healthcare system ready for the Baby Boomers? What’s happening with urgent aged care funding reforms, and what can we learn from Australia?

If you’ve ever told yourself investing is something you’ll get to later, when you have more money, more brain space, or a slightly more put-together life… this episode is about to ruin all of those excuses in the best way. Today, the one and only Bec Syed has volunteered to jump into the Investing Diaries seat so we can get pervy on her first year as an investor (and yes, it’s exactly as Bec-coded as you’d expect). She walks us through how she went from not really understanding what investing even was, to building an almost $1,500 investment portfolio in the background of her very normal, but very chaotic life. (Yep, we're so proud of her too!) We get into what it actually looks like to invest when you don’t have heaps of spare cash, why round-ups and automation are a game changer, and how seeing tiny wins along the way completely changed how money feels. In her lovable Bec way she's honest about the confusion, the questionable decisions, the accidental wins, and the fact that she still very much learning as she goes. It’s proof that you don't have to have it all figured out when it comes to investing, you just need to start. And if Bec can do it… honestly, so can you.

We're in Sydney with Oleg Vornik, CEO of DroneShield, makers of radio-frequency technology to detect and take down small, hostile drones across 50 countries. While defence demand is rising, airports, data centers, and infrastructure facilities are also looking for protection against small drones used for surveillance, cyber threats, and sabotage. Learn how DroneShield built the world's largest drone signal library, why simply shooting down drones isn’t viable, and why they’re moving to "micro AI" on tiny, self-learning devices. Hear about the “cat and mouse game” between counter-drone developers and drone manufacturers, constantly innovating to avoid detection.

Could open banking finally create real competition for money services—beyond the banks? We’re talking to Ben Lynch, who left Xero to found Akahu, the open finance intermediary pushing to change the balance of power between banks, their customers, and their competitors. This episode explores how open banking aims to democratize your financial data, letting fintech businesses innovate and become a “bank without being a bank”. Hear about Ben’s battle to bring the new Consumer Data Right into law, giving individuals more meaningful ownership of their personal information—the foundation of open banking. We discuss how this legislation forces banks to use APIs (application programming interfaces) to share data, and creates more space for disruptors like Sharesies to offer consumers choice.

With a 75% majority vote required and two major shareholders already backing the deal, this is a pivotal moment for Comvita and its investors.
