Recce Pharmaceuticals Ltd CEO James Graham talked with Proactive about the company's strengthened intellectual property position in Southeast Asia following the grant of a Vietnamese patent covering its RECCE® 327 and RECCE® 529 synthetic anti-infective candidates. The Family 4 patent, granted by the Intellectual Property Office of Vietnam, provides protection until 2041 and represents the eighth patent secured by Recce Pharmaceuticals within this patent family. Graham explained that the patent covers the preparation and manufacture of the company's compounds, as well as the use of R327 and R529 in the treatment of bacterial, viral and other infectious diseases. Discussing the significance of the award, Graham said the patent was “very significant because it takes our market monopolies out to 2041”. Graham also outlined why Vietnam is strategically important within the broader ASEAN market. He pointed to the prevalence of diabetes in the region, the associated incidence of diabetic foot ulcers and the high proportion of those ulcers that become infected. He also discussed antimicrobial resistance and the lack of an established standard of care in some regional markets. Recce Pharmaceuticals is currently progressing two Phase 3 clinical programs, including a study in Indonesia and a study being conducted across Australian teaching hospitals. Graham said the Indonesian program is intended to support regional commercialisation, while the Australian study is being conducted to US Food and Drug Administration standards. He also discussed the company's licensing activities, including a term sheet with a Middle Eastern pharmaceutical company covering multiple countries, as well as the deployment of recently raised funds across clinical, regulatory and licensing work.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I explain why the next phase of agentic AI is all about governance, security, and business processes. Highlights 00:03 — Salesforce has expanded its partnership with Databricks to help organizations better connect enterprise data with business outcomes in the era of agentic AI. At its core, the expanded partnership is about recognizing that as AI agents take on a larger role across the enterprise, they need access to complete, connected data that's paired with business context, security controls, and enterprise processes. 00:51 — Access to data alone really is not enough for AI agents to deliver meaningful business value. "Customers consistently tell us they want AI agents to become a larger part of how work gets done across the enterprise," said Andy Kofoid, President of Global Field Operations at Databricks. "To make this a reality, they need access to trusted data, business contexts, and governance controls wherever that information lives." 01:32 — "Together, Salesforce and Databricks are helping customers connect governed data and business contexts across platforms, giving humans and agents the shared foundation they need to search, reason, and act with confidence." 01:46— I think this partnership is, yet again, part of a pattern that's emerging here. It's representing a broader shift that's taking place across the AI industry as organizations move beyond experimentation and toward large-scale deployment of AI agents. 02:00 — As this is happening, success really depends less on the models and more on the ability to unite these agentic capabilities with data governance, security, and business processes. Salesforce and Databricks are betting that enterprises need all of those elements working together cohesively if agentic AI is to deliver on the promises it has made. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

Gunnison Copper Corp CEO Craig Hallworth and Melissa Mackie, Vice President of Investor Relations and Communications joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's latest financing milestone, which eliminates its remaining convertible debt and significantly strengthens its capital structure. Hallworth explained that Gunnison has now reduced its secured debt to zero and has settled its remaining convertible debt, which had been scheduled to mature in September. Following negotiations with Greenstone, the company completed a cash settlement that Hallworth said was highly favorable for shareholders. The transaction was completed at a value 54% below the company's most recent equity financing, allowing Gunnison to avoid issuing approximately 29 million new shares. Hallworth said the move preserves nearly US$5 million in shareholder value by eliminating the potential dilution. "We're really thrilled with the outcome. We think people are going to be extremely happy that there is not 29 million more shares coming on the market," Hallworth said. Mackie added that the improved balance sheet leaves the company well positioned to continue advancing its flagship Gunnison Copper Project. A recently launched district-wide drilling campaign includes up to 120 drill holes focused on metallurgical optimization, resource conversion, resource expansion, and data collection for the next technical report. Two drill rigs are currently operating on site, with the company expecting to increase that number to six rigs by September as the exploration program accelerates. Hallworth said the company's goal is to rapidly advance development through aggressive drilling, supporting updated technical studies while targeting the addition of more than one billion pounds of copper to the project's resource base. Management believes the strengthened balance sheet, elimination of potential dilution, and expanded drilling campaign position Gunnison Copper for its next stage of growth. #proactiveinvestors #gunnisoncoppercorp #tsx #gcu #otcqb #gcumf #Copper #MiningNews #CopperMining #ResourceExpansion #ExplorationDrilling #CriticalMinerals #ShareholderValue #MineDevelopment #EnergyTransition

Every successful business owner is resilient. Capable. Driven. But what if the traits that got you here are quietly preventing you from scaling? That's the question at the heart of this conversation — and it's one that Laila Tarraf has spent decades living, learning, and ultimately writing about in her book Strong Like Water. Laila has served as Chief People Officer at some of the world's most recognised brands, including Peet's Coffee and Allbirds. She has advised founders and CEOs through critical leadership transitions. And she brings all of that experience — alongside her own deeply personal journey — to this conversation about what it really means to lead at the next level. Because real leadership, Laila argues, isn't about getting things done. It isn't about pushing through, holding it all together, or being the strongest person in the room. It's about creating the conditions for everyone around you to rise. That shift — from doing to enabling, from controlling to trusting — is one of the most significant transitions a founder can make. And it doesn't happen automatically with success. It requires a deliberate, often uncomfortable, evolution of identity. Laila shares candidly what that evolution looked like for her. Growing up in a household where strength meant perseverance and composure, she spent decades building armour — the kind that protects you in difficult moments but can also prevent you from leading with the vulnerability and clarity that truly scales a business. It wasn't until she navigated profound personal loss while serving in her first executive role that she began to understand: the armour wasn't strength. It was a barrier. In this episode, you'll discover: Why "getting things done" is not leadership — and what it actually looks like at the level your business needs now The founder traits that create early success — and why they can block scalability if you don't evolve beyond them How to create psychological safety so your team tells you what's really happening in your business The difference between principles (sacred) and practices (evolving) — and why confusing them keeps founders stuck Why clarity around vision, roles, and decision rights is the first step to real freedom How emotional maturity determines how far your organisation can grow Mentioned in This Episode: Apply to Join the HerBusiness Network Laila Tarraf's Website www.lailatarraf.com Laila Tarraf's LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/lailatarraf Laila Tarraf's Book: Stong Like Water is available here

As neighbouring Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo battle the Ebola outbreak, Tanzanian authorities say they're taking no chances. From screening travellers at border crossings to training frontline health workers, officials insist they're ready if the virus crosses into the country. But along the vast Lake Tanganyika shoreline, concerns remain over unofficial border crossings. And, at the 2026 World Cup, only eight of the 48 teams have squads made up entirely of home-born players. We explore how migration, identity and family ties are reshaping international football.Presenter: Nkechi Ogbonna Producers: Keikantse Shumba, Blessing Aderogba and Ayuba Iliya Senior Producer: Bella Twine Technical Producer: David Kinyanjui Editors: Charles Gitonga and Maryam Abdalla

In 1 Kings 7, Pastor Gerrit walks through the furnishings of Solomon's temple and what they reveal about God's character and his relationship with his people.In 1 Kings 7, Pastor Gerrit walks through the furnishings of Solomon's temple and what they reveal about God's character and his relationship with his people. The temple was built with costly stones even in the foundation, unseen by anyone, because Solomon wanted to honor a God worth his very best. The bronze pillars, the massive water reservoir used for ceremonial cleansing, and the golden incense altar each point forward to something greater: the cleansing that comes through faith in Jesus, and the prayers that rise to God like a sweet aroma. Because of Christ, the veil that once separated people from God's presence has been torn, and anyone can now draw near with confidence.

In this empowering episode of the Message-To-Go Podcast, Pr Kenneth Chin unpacks one of the most frequently quoted scriptures in the Bible: Philippians 4:13—"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Moving beyond the surface-level interpretation of using this verse as a motivational phrase for personal ambition, Pr Kenneth dives into the true context of Paul's words: finding supernatural strength in both abundance and lack, and learning the secret of true contentment.The message challenges believers—especially men navigating the pressures of family, career, and ministry—to evaluate where their true source of strength lies. Pr Kenneth shares that "all things" means enduring every season of life with an unwavering faith, recognizing that human willpower is limited, but Christ's strength is infinite. Whether you are currently walking through a season of testing or standing on a mountain of success, this episode serves as a vital reminder that our capability does not come from our own hands, but through total reliance on the power of Christ.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I examine how Google Cloud is using AI Threat Defense to help customers fight AI-powered cyberattacks. Highlights 00:03 — If you're going to be number one on the Cloud Wars Top 10, you've got to fight to keep that position and stay ahead of the incredible and highly capable competition across the Cloud Wars Top 10. Google Cloud, I believe, has taken yet another big step in ensuring that it remains the number one company on the Cloud Wars Top 10 by launching a new cybersecurity approach. 00:57 — The person leading that is Francis deSouza, who is the Chief Operating Officer of Google Cloud, but also president of its security products. In a blog post last week outlining what this new AI Threat Defense is all about, deSouza said it's time now that business customers be able to fight AI with AI, to defend against these very powerful incursions that the bad guys are going to be making using AI. 01:58 — So, there needs to be, among customers, a big shift in how they do things. It can't be, "Let's just do a little bit more of what we've always done." There's got to be a new approach, and Google Cloud believes it's got that now with this AI Threat Defense for Google Cloud. I believe this is the latest in an ongoing series of steps they've made around cybersecurity. 02:54 — About a year ago — or several months ago — the company announced its intention to acquire Wiz, with its end-to-end threat monitoring and awareness capabilities. That deal has now been completed, and the most recent step, I believe, is the launch of this new solution called Google AI Threat Defense. 03:56 — Now, I'm not trying to read more into that than needs to be said. Maybe Google Cloud AI Threat Defense seemed overly clunky, but I wonder if, in some ways, parent company Google is riding this high now. Google Cloud itself had a growth rate of 63%, up from 48% in the prior quarter, so the company is definitely on a run here. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

In this episode of The Nonprofit Exchange, Hugh Ballou welcomes Molly Tschang, founder of Say It Skillfully, for a practical conversation on communication as one of the most essential leadership skills in nonprofit life. Molly emphasizes that communication is not simply about what leaders say, but about what people actually hear, understand, and are able to act on. Molly shares that many leadership challenges are communication issues in disguise. Drawing from her work with senior leaders, teams, and organizations navigating complex change, she explains that effective communication is a “team sport” because every person in an organization has a responsibility to speak up in service of the greater good. When people hold back out of fear of being wrong, offending others, or not fitting in, organizations lose access to the full wisdom and contribution of their teams. The conversation explores how nonprofit leaders can create environments where people feel valued, heard, and safe enough to contribute honestly. Molly offers practical guidance on building “accurate shared reality,” inviting different points of view, responding well to difficult feedback, and normalizing the truth that all of us are sometimes part of the communication problem. That awareness, she says, gives leaders and teams the opportunity to become part of the solution. Hugh and Molly also discuss the power of nonverbal communication, intentional listening, and the importance of showing up with the right energy before a single word is spoken. Molly introduces her simple Me, You, We framework as a tool for preparing conversations with clarity, empathy, and purpose. She encourages leaders to speak with compassion and confidence, not to prove themselves right, but to serve the mission, the team, and the greater good. This episode is especially valuable for nonprofit executives, board members, staff leaders, and volunteers who want to strengthen trust, improve collaboration, and help people bring their full gifts to the mission.  More at - https://www.sayitskillfully.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Medicine is never only about treatment. It also carries culture, identity, and memory. Sometimes preserving a medicine is a way of preserving a people.In this episode we visit with James Flowers to explore a potent moment in the history of Korean medicine and how Hanbang became part of Korea's cultural resistance during the Japanese colonization. Not through politics or violence, but through preserving ways of healing, thinking, and living.We discuss how medical ideas moved between Korea, China, and Japan, the role of Yangsheng in everyday life, and how Korean medicine resisted separating mind from body in the way modern systems often do.This conversation also touches on the deeper question of how medicine lives within culture—not only through practitioners and institutions, but through families, daily habits, stories, and collective memory.Listen into this conversation that weaves together history, medicine, identity, and the enduring cultural force of East Asian healing traditions.
