OneHaas is pleased to welcome Yael Zheng, class of 1992, who is a seasoned marketing executive with two decades of experience in the tech industry. She's served as the Chief Marketing Officer for companies like Bill.com and VMware, and has sat on seven different boards including MeridianLink and UC Berkeley's  Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology.Yael moved to the U.S. from China when she was a teenager and found herself drawn to the world of engineering. After getting an undergraduate degree at MIT, she felt like her true calling was elsewhere and decided that business school was the best way to find it. Yael chats with host Sean Li about finding her passion for marketing at Haas, her family's experience emigrating from China after the Cultural Revolution, and some of the top lessons she's gained from serving as a Chief Marketing Officer and now a board member. *OneHaas Alumni Podcast is a production of Haas School of Business and is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:On coming to the U.S. from China in 1981“ When I came to this country, I went to New Jersey and was finishing up the last few years of high school. And it was such a completely weird experience. Eyeopening would be an understatement. And I remember going to a local supermarket and finding the shelves just full of stuff like everything was stocked with stuff, and I was telling my sister like, oh my gosh how could there be so much stuff in the store? You know, of course, I came from a country back then, stuff was still kind of scarce.”On the misconceptions of what a Chief Marketing Officer does“ It's not about just taking a product and then, you know, go put out a website and some blogs and whatever, some market advertising. I mean, that's kind of the tactic. [But] far more important and far more interesting is to really figure out, behind all the tactics, [the product market fit i.e. what customer problems need to be solved and how big and how pressing,] what strategy you need to adopt, how you price it, how you package it.”On the importance of doing your homework on a company before working there“ I've known people who kind of feel like, oh, you know, you seem to have got pretty lucky with several companies that have really gone somewhere. I think luck is definitely a big part of it. But I think like anything, as we all know, you improve your luck or increase your luck by really doing your homework ahead of time, right? You try to see, okay, this company is really trying to attack a problem that's really big. A lot of customers, right? A lot of businesses feel the potential pain. And so there's a really potentially big opportunity to try to solve that problem.”On being a board member vs. an operational executive “ I think that we are constantly reminded as board directors that it's not our job to actually run the company. That's the job of the leadership team, the management team. We're supposed to provide oversight and governance. So having been an operator for many years, you know, I have to constantly remind myself   nose in and then fingers off. So it's our job to ask questions and ask good questions to help the management team to make sure that they have the right strategy in place and that they're executing effectively.”Show Links:LinkedIn ProfileYael's recommendation – HubSpot blogSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/onehaas/donations

Siri creator Adam Cheyer talks about the long road to launching the virtual assistant, how to take an entrepreneurial idea from conception to impact and why he doesn't see anything as a failure."An entrepreneur and a magician are exactly the same," begins Cheyer, who also founded the startups Change.org, Viv Labs, Sentient and Bixby. "An entrepreneur needs to imagine an impossible future. Think about Siri: 20 years ago, if I told you that you could pull a device out of your pocket, it would know who you are and where you are and you could just talk to it using your words and it would not only talk back to you, but do things for you, book that reservation, buy a movie ticket, you would've thought that were magic."An entrepreneur has to imagine an impossible future that's desirable, that doesn't exist ... So, you have to reach far as an entrepreneur, dream big, dream magical. But you have to be very clear (and answer) 'Why would we want such a thing?'"This Feb. 9, 2021, talk was part of UC Berkeley's Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship & Technology's 2021 Newton Lecture Series.

Matías Muchnick, NotCo: Building The Future of Food From Chile, Ep 119 Matías Muchnick left the investment banking world in pursuit of a solution that would bring sustainability to the broken food industry. He could not have predicted that a couple of years later he would be training an algorithm to understand humans’ taste preferences to create a plant-based mayonnaise that would appeal to the mass market.    In 2015, Matías cofounded NotCo, a food tech company that is using AI to take animals out of the equation in the production of milk, cheese, eggs, and meat. Just eight months after launching their first product in 2017, NotCo achieved 8% market share of the total mayo category in Chile in the first stores they launched in, a country that has ranked third in mayo consumption per capita in the world.   I sat down with Matías to talk about his experience in the investment banking world, starting a vegan food startup in 2012 and, ultimately, his decision to leave the company. We also discuss his transformative experience in the US where he connected with his current co-founders, then getting accepted into IndieBio, and eventually raising money from Kaszek Ventures and Jeff Bezos. Matías also talks about his most recent round of funding and preparations for launching in the US. “R&D in the food industry was operating on coal”   Inspired by other entrepreneurs’ stories, Matías left his job as an investment banker and started thinking about what he wanted to do next. He had always been curious about the food industry but didn’t fully understand it. As a finance major, he likened it to the subprime crisis of 2008, where there was a disconnect between companies and customers who were buying and selling products they didn’t understand. At the time, the consumer was also changing, demanding a more sustainable way of producing food. Matías realized that what the food industry needed was disruption.   Learn more about why Matías decided he wanted to disrupt the food industry in this episode of Crossing Borders. Cutting animals out of the equation When Matías realized that the next step to advance his vision was to invest in technology, he immersed himself in the world of food, science, and entrepreneurship. During his postgraduate program at UC Berkeley, he became close to the biotech department where he learned about how the pharmaceutical industry was innovating using machine learning. That’s when Matías started questioning how these technologies could be applied to the food industry. He started surrounding himself with extremely qualified scientists including his co-founders Karim and Pablo, who were curious to explore this uncharted territory in the food space.   Listen to this episode of Crossing Borders to learn more about how Matías formed his founding team and got started with NotCo. Breaking the biotech barrier in Latam’s VC industry Matías and his co-founders had been bootstrapping NotCo when they received a call from Ryan Bethencourt, the former Program Director at IndieBio. Ryan offered them a waiver to get into the prestigious biotech accelerator, which they hadn’t even applied for because they thought they had zero chance of getting in. Under IndieBio’s spotlight, NotCo became the first startup to receive a term sheet before Demo Day, and got the attention of Kaszek Ventures, who instantly became interested in their industry and invested in their Series A and subsequent rounds.   Find out more about NotCo’s growth trajectory and milestones they have achieved over the years in this episode of Crossing Borders, including becoming the first Latam startup Jeff Bezos invested in.    Matías Muchnick is revolutionizing the way in which we think about food through NotCo’s vision for food production that is sustainable and efficient. The next generation of consumers is already changing, and Matías is making sure that the food industry continues to innovate to accompany that change.   Outline of this episode: [2:16] - About NotCo [7:46] - Becoming an entrepreneur [14:24] - Reaction of friends and family [16:22] - The breaking point with Eggless [19:50] - NotCo’s inflection point [25:07] - How NotCo raised money from Jeff Bezos and Top VCs [31:14] - Next steps after raising $85M in a Series C  [34:55] - Advice to Matías’ younger self [36:37] - Books, blogs, and podcast recommendations   Resources & people mentioned: Matías Muchnick Karim Pichara Pablo Zamora Eduardo Bendek NotCo Eggless Documentaries: Cowspiracy, What the Health Impossible Foods Beyond Burger UC Berkeley’s Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship & Technology Harvard Business School Stanford IndieBio Ryan Bethencourt Kaszek Ventures The Craftory Elio Leoni Sceti Jeff Bezos L Catterton Future Positive Books: Hard Things About Hard Things

Matt Milford, Co-Founder & CEO, Foresight Mental Health From the Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship & Technology website Matt Milford and Doug Hapeman dropped out of UC Berkeley with a vision to transform mental health care. Their venture, Foresight Mental Health, is a data-driven mental health care service that uses modern technology to deliver highly personalized, data-backed treatment plans to their patients. Foresight is based in Berkeley and provides patients with a wide range of treatment and services to improve mental health and lifestyle. The company is composed of psychiatrists, therapists, neuropsychologists, software engineers, bioengineers, nutritionists and data scientists with a mission to revolutionize the industry. Matt and Doug were frustrated with how mental healthcare operates in the U.S. They explained that 55% of psychiatrists don't accept health insurance and in the Bay Area, the number is even higher. Comparatively, in the healthcare industry, less than 15% of providers do not accept insurance. They said that most options are very costly, often even hundreds of dollars out-of-pocket. “We focus a lot on combating the stigma around mental health,” said Doug. “Traditionally, it's been very stigmatized. With younger populations, people are starting to talk about it being more open, and we want to encourage and facilitate that openness and combat any remaining stigma.” Foresight uses a personalized patient profile that analyzes vital information including one's genetics, comprehensive symptoms, and brain-chemical balance estimates. Foresight combines that data with their patients' mental health history, family history, and lifestyle to create a personalized patient portfolio. Matt got an intimate look into entrepreneurship and innovation at the European Innovation Academy in Nice, France in the summer of 2016 through SCET's summer abroad program. At EIA, Matt gained an early start in entrepreneurship and technology. His interests in entrepreneurship and innovation, coupled with his passion for mental healthcare, led him to co-found Foresight Mental Health with his friend and co-founder Doug. Although Foresight works with all ages, its focus is on helping university-age students. They currently help hundreds of UC Berkeley students at one of their nearby locations. To help modernize the mental health world, Foresight is reimagining the space where treatments are done. The clinics are calm and welcoming environments with music playing and a modern look. In the coming months, Foresight plans to open more clinics and expand its technology to new areas of healthcare and wellness. “We're learning a lot here, in a totally new and different way than at Berkeley,” said Matt. “We're set on our mission of reinventing mental healthcare through the use of technology to make people happier and healthier.”

In the not-too-distant future the cut of sirloin steak on your dinner plate may not be meat at all. That's the hope anyway of dedicated scientists and engineers working to create the next generation of meat alternatives. The dream is that using clever blends of plant compounds or perhaps cultured tissue, food companies will be able to create meat-like products that are so convincing, diners will choose them over the real thing.  On this edition of KCBS In Depth we speak with some of those leading the way in the emerging alternative meat field to find answers to some of the biggest questions about these high tech meat substitutes, including: how are they made? How real do they taste? And why do some consider them a key tool in the fight against global warming?  Guests: Bruce Friedrich, the executive director of the Good Food Institute David Lipman, the chief science officer for Impossible Foods Dr. Ricardo San Martin, research director for the Alternative Meats Lab at the Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology at UC Berkeley Host: KCBS Radio reporter Keith Menconi

This week on Navigating Change, Berkeley Professor Ricardo San Martin joins us in a conversation about teaching. What does transformational teaching look like and what does it mean to present that teacher as learner. How can we empower students to explore with each and build a sense of their own ownership in the learning process? Professor San Martin’s own transformation comes at the forefront of the science he teaches. As a visiting lecturer at the Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology at UC Berkeley, he leads a class on the development of plant-based meat. The cutting edge chemistry, biology, business, and manufacturing that goes on in the course serves to put student and teacher alike in the role of explorer, and it’s changed the way San Martin approaches the classroom. Professor San Martin shares his personal journey with us today, and as such offers lessons in the future of the faculty-student relationship.
