Board games are often seen as a way to bring people together. They're a social activity, even for solo gamers. When we sit down to play, we fall into familiar rhythms of turns, actions and mechanisms. We don't even need to share the same language. Playing board games is a time when gestures, shared goals, and the actions within the magic circle of the game itself act as a way for us to communicate. Board games themselves are like a shared language, where friendly rivalry, cooperative play and everything else sometimes conveys more than words ever can.Read the full article here: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/11/25/games-as-lingua-franca-how-board-games-can-overcome-language-barriers-topic-discussion/Useful LinksPandemic review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2020/01/18/pandemic-saturday-review/Tapestry review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2019/11/09/tapestry-saturday-review/Ofrenda review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/05/10/ofrenda-saturday-review/MusicIntro Music: Bomber (Sting) by Riot (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠)Over Oceans by Alex-Productions | https://onsound.eu/Music promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons / Attribution 3.0 Unported License (CC BY 3.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_USEndless by Moavii | https://www.youtube.com/@MoaviiMusicFree To Use | https://freetouse.com/musicMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comSurvival Mode by Unheard | https://freetouse.com/music/unheardFree To Use | https://freetouse.com/musicMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comTeapot by Lukrembo | https://soundcloud.com/lukremboFree To Use | https://freetouse.com/musicMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comSupportIf you want to support this podcast financially, please check out the links below:Ko-Fi: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/TabletopGamesBlog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/tabletopgamesblog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://tabletopgamesblog.com/support/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠(Photo by Stefan on Unsplash)

In this episode of Big Blend Radio's “Quiltripping Travel with Rose” podcast, travel writer and photographer Rose Palmer takes us on a captivating journey through Malta, the independent island nation nestled between Sicily and North Africa. With a history stretching back over 5,000 years, Malta is a treasure trove of cultural influences, architectural marvels, and remarkable resilience. Explore the breathtaking St. John's Cathedral in Valletta—with its stunning Baroque design and an iconic Caravaggio painting—along with the island's fortified structures built by the Knights of St. John. Rose digs into Malta's pivotal role during World War II, from the extensive bombing campaigns to the underground shelters that protected its people. Hear about the Arabic roots of the Maltese language, the ancient texts preserved in the National Library of Malta (some dating to 1474), and the island's fascinating Neolithic history. Rose also highlights the vibrant lifestyle of Valletta, its UNESCO World Heritage designation, and the enduring spirit of the Maltese people. Whether you're a history buff, culture seeker, or curious traveler, this episode offers a rich glimpse into what makes Malta a must-visit Mediterranean destination.

Hosts Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlanc welcome David Lafitte, President and CEO of Tecovas, the fast-growing Austin-based brand bringing cowboy culture to modern consumers. Lafitte's career journey—from corporate attorney to Chief Operating Officer at Deckers Brands (home of UGG and Hoka) and now to retail leadership at Tecovas—is a masterclass in reinvention and focus.Under Lafitte's leadership, Tecovas has evolved from a digitally native boot maker to a fast growing premium lifestyle brand built on two pillars: crafted quality and radical hospitality.

The company's blend of authenticity and approachability has earned it cult-brand status while driving remarkable growth.Lafitte also shares insights into Tecovas' expansion strategy, including its move into New York's Soho district. He describes the flagship store as both a retail hub and a powerful brand ambassador that introduces western style to new audiences—without compromising the brand's roots. The discussion dives into Tecovas' measured foray into wholesale partnerships with Nordstrom and its expanding apparel lines, from denim to performance shirts, that extend the brand's head-to-toe lifestyle appeal.Lafitte reflects on the importance of leadership focus, empowering teams, and maintaining clarity amid growth. His advice for emerging retail leaders: prioritize what matters most, say no to distractions, and foster cultures of accountability and trust.The hosts balance the conversation with this week's retail headlines: the Supreme Court's debate over Trump-era tariffs, Allbirds' ongoing “Wobbly Unicorn Corner” status and strong results from luxury icons Ralph Lauren and Tapestry amid broader industry struggles. They close with insights on Amazon's automation ambitions, Andy Jassy's bold predictions for the future of eCommerce, and holiday retail forecasts signaling a slower but steady season.

Ever wondered why the “darkest” country songs linger long after the last note fades? We crack open that list and find more than shock value—there's craft, confession, and a lineage of storytelling that made the genre brave. From murder ballads to Whiskey Lullaby, we unpack what makes a song haunt you and why those narratives still matter.Then we sprint through the modern pulse: Jelly Roll's global moment and community work, stacked festival lineups, Abbey Road sessions, and the not-so-silent rise of subtitles in streaming. Captions might sound boring, but they're changing how fans absorb lyrics and stories, especially in a word-first genre like country. We also talk about videos that miss the mark and why listeners instantly sense when visuals don't serve the song.The centerpiece is a rowdy, smart bracket to crown the best album of all time. You sent your picks—Rumours, Abbey Road, Pet Sounds, Tapestry, Van Halen I, The Wall, George Strait, Shania, Garth—and we fought it out. Journey's Escape made a bold run, but Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon took the crown for cohesion, sequencing, and sheer sonic gravity. Along the way, we teased apart “favorite” versus “best,” and what a truly great album must do from first second to last.We close with charts and indie highlights, then an ear-opening A/B test: a studio cut vs an AI-recreated version of the same song. The AI track is polished and passable, but side-by-side it lacks depth, stereo motion, cymbal realism, and those tiny human edges at the ends of phrases that make a vocal feel lived. It's not anti-tech—it's pro-feel. And the mailbag nails the theme: country isn't a costume; it's a culture. Americana is carrying a slice of that soul, and live shows still matter because sweat and risk can't be automated.Hit play for sharp opinions, a few laughs, and a lot of heart. If you enjoyed the ride, follow the show, share it with a friend, and drop your “best album ever” in a review—we'll read the spiciest ones on air.Send us a text Support the showLinks Jay Franze: https://jayfranze.com/ JFS Country Countdown: https://jayfranze.com/countdown/ Contact Contact: https://jayfranze.com/contact/ Socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jayfranze TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jayfranze X: https://x.com/jayfranze YouTube: https://youtube.com/@jayfranze Services Services: https://jayfranze.com/services/ Books Books: https://jayfranze.com/books/ Merchandise Merchandise: https://jayfranze.com/merchandise/ Support Support: https://jayfranze.com/support/ Sponsor the Show: https://jayfranze.com/sponsor/

“We are always waiting for someone to define the direction, versus saying ‘What am I going to do?' — I've never asked what my work plan is — if there are no user manuals, how would you live your life? Sandeep Seth is Chief Growth Officer and President of Tapestry International—the parent company of Coach, Kate Spade, and Stuart Weitzman. Before Tapestry, Sandeep spent over two decades at Procter & Gamble, where he rose through local, regional, and global marketing leadership roles across India and Singapore—eventually becoming Global CEO of SK-II, P&G's prestige skincare brand. You'll enjoy this candid conversation about the lessons behind Sandeep's remarkable journey—from being placed on a performance plan early in his career to leading some of the world's most iconic luxury and beauty brands. His turning point? Realizing that having a strong point of view—and voicing it—is just as critical as delivering great work. You'll hear about how marketing leaders blend logic and magic, why emotional resonance is the real currency of brand-building, and how true business acumen comes from connecting the dots across an organization rather than chasing every new tool. A graduate of the Indian Institute of Management, Lucknow (MBA) and Jadavpur University, Kolkata (Civil Engineering), Sandeep brings a rare mix of analytical rigor, creative instinct, and humility to his leadership philosophy. If you're thinking about stepping into a bigger role—or simply want to become a more intentional marketing leader—this episode is packed with sharp, grounded insights from someone who's lived it.This episode is hosted by P&G Alum Sudha Ranganathan, who's spent over 19 years in diverse Marketing leadership roles at companies like P&G, PayPal, and LinkedIn where she's honed her passion for customer-centric marketing and talent development.

I am so often in awe.   Of another being's endurance or grace — perhaps a lover, a river, the sea, or even time itself.   I want to learn how they do it -from borrowing calm, to letting life flow through, to finally resting in stillness and reverence.   To see life as a moving tapestry of happenstances, tragedies or ecstasy; living through them, but not allowing any of these to change the essential core of what they are, why they are.   They seem to allow both beauty and pain to go through them - such that they are touched and changed, but not rendered cynical or bitter or stormy or intractable. To be that indestructible rock which is soft to touch; to be that bleeding evening which heals; to be that person who is stubbornly calm and unchanging amidst every provocation we might throw at him.   I want to be that person who recognizes the essential fragrance of the unseen flower or is hurt but does not drive into a town like a storm.   If you liked this poem, consider listening to these other poems on the grace we encounter in our lives -  Her Grace Without Notice Rediscovering Heaven Sipping Tea in a Rumi Morning  Subscribe to my newsletter 'The Uncuts' Follow me on Instagram at @sunilgivesup.

The Human Equation with Joe Pangaro – Holidays in America are more than days off—they are expressions of the nation's soul. They reflect its spiritual depth, historical complexity, and cultural richness. Whether sacred or secular, each holiday invites Americans to pause, remember, and celebrate what it means to be part of a diverse yet united people. In honoring these moments, we honor each other...

On All Saints' Sunday, we honor those in our lives who have passed. Are those who have gone before us still woven into the tapestry of God's Love? Yes, God first loves us, and that doesn't change. Today's message is brought by Pastor Jason. Our new testament lesson is from Colossians chapter 2, verses 2-3, 6-7, and 11-14. The Gospel is from Luke, chapter 6, verses 46-49.

Ben Case is part of the Tapestry education team and a former primary and early years teacher. He works closely with settings to support their use of Tapestry and believes tech is only successful if you bring staff with you. As a teacher Ben regularly presented at TeachMeet Sussex and he now helps to host the Tapestry podcast, writes for education publications, and features in many of the Tapestry training videos to support users. He is keen to share actionable insights and foster a positive, confident approach to using technology effectively in early years settings across the UK.Tapestry's annual survey had some interesting findings around the use of AI in the early years; engaging with families; and supporting families with ideas for play at home.More info about the survey: https://tapestry.info/tapestry-early-years-education-survey-2025-what-we-learnt/Tapestry has teamed up with award-winning Playworker Amber – aka Amber Ogunsanya-William – to collaborate on a project championing children's freedom to play. The animation shares Amber's story, and highlights provocations for play at home.https://tapestry.info/let-play-lead-the-day/Takeaways: The importance of centering the child in educational processes cannot be overstated, as their home experiences significantly influence their learning in school. Tapestry facilitates effective two-way communication between educators and parents, enhancing the overall educational experience for children. As AI tools become increasingly prevalent, it is essential to teach children to critically assess the authenticity of the media they encounter. Engaging parents in their child's learning journey is vital, as it fosters a deeper understanding of child development beyond mere participation in school events. The integration of play in education is crucial, enabling children to develop problem-solving skills while maintaining engagement in their learning. AI can be a valuable resource in lesson planning and child activity suggestions, but it should support, rather than replace, the educator's role. https://tapestry.info/https://www.instagram.com/tapestry_fsf/https://www.facebook.com/TapestryLearningJournalhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/eyfsben/Show Sponsor – National Association for Primary Education (NAPE)https://nape.org.uk/Find out more about their Primary First Journal: https://www.educationonfire.com/nape

En la edición de hoy de Radar Empresarial, ponemos el foco en Louis Vuitton, cuyos resultados recientes impulsaron una de las mayores subidas bursátiles del año: sus acciones repuntaron más de un 12%. Este avance se explica principalmente por el crecimiento en sus ingresos, que aumentaron un 1% hasta superar los 18.000 millones de dólares. Un factor clave ha sido la recuperación del mercado chino, donde la empresa afirmó que las ventas volvieron a ser positivas y que los consumidores han respondido de forma favorable a las nuevas experiencias en tienda. Esta mejora es especialmente relevante tras un 2024 complicado para el sector del lujo, en el que Louis Vuitton cayó un 15% en bolsa, Hermès retrocedió un 20% y Kering perdió un 39% de su valor. China fue uno de los principales focos de preocupación, ya que el mercado del lujo en el país se redujo más del 18% el año pasado, quedando en torno a los 350.000 millones de yuanes (unos 48.000 millones de dólares). Considerando que cerca del 28% de la facturación global de Louis Vuitton (excluyendo Japón) proviene de Asia, la marca decidió reaccionar con rapidez. Según José Manuel Amor, socio director de Afi, el impulso chino ha sido clave en los resultados. Parte de esta recuperación se debe a una estrategia innovadora: en junio abrieron "The Louis", una tienda conceptual que ofrece una experiencia inmersiva, con cafetería y espacios diseñados para redes sociales, reforzando el vínculo con nuevos públicos. Esta nueva apuesta se alinea con la tendencia en el sector del lujo de ofrecer vivencias más exclusivas a sus clientes. Además, Louis Vuitton ha incursionado en la inteligencia artificial. Junto a Alibaba Cloud, organizó un concurso de innovación enfocado en el desarrollo de agentes inteligentes para el comercio minorista, con el objetivo de mejorar la experiencia de compra. No obstante, Alberto Matellán, director general de La Financière Responsable, advierte que estos buenos resultados aún no se pueden extrapolar al conjunto del sector, que sigue enfrentando desafíos importantes. Entre los puntos débiles del balance de Louis Vuitton, destaca la caída del 2% en las ventas de su división estrella: moda y artículos de cuero, si bien muestra una recuperación respecto al segundo trimestre, donde la caída fue del 9%. La presión del entorno sigue pesando: el aumento de aranceles ha encarecido productos y la competencia de Coach, marca perteneciente a Tapestry, ha ganado terreno. Aun así, la firma podría recibir un impulso inesperado desde Italia: en el testamento de Giorgio Armani figuran como posibles compradores de su marca tres grandes nombres, entre ellos Louis Vuitton, junto con L'Oréal y EssilorLuxottica.

How do you go from hearing a quiet tug on your heart to building a thriving microschool in only four months? In this episode, I sit down with Lauren Talbot—former accountant, middle school math teacher, and now the founder of The Anchor Learning Center in Louisiana. From her one-stoplight town, Lauren followed God's unmistakable call to leave public education and step into something completely new: creating a homeschool hybrid microschool. Lauren shares how she describes her journey as “weaving the tapestry of my calling and destiny”—a beautiful, faith-filled story that began the day she buckled her seatbelt, drove away from her classroom, and received a life-changing phone call that confirmed her next steps. Today, just four months later, she and her mom are serving 30 students alongside student interns, bringing her vision to life and transforming her community. Lauren is also a proud member of our Microschool Masterminds community—a supportive network of founders who, like her, are guided step-by-step through building, growing, and sustaining their microschools and homeschool hybrids. In this episode, you'll also hear how the Mastermind has helped Lauren find encouragement, strategies, and clarity as she stepped into leadership. If you've ever wondered… Could I really build a microschool from scratch—even in a small town? How do I follow God's call when it feels risky or “taboo”? Where do I find a community of people who understand this journey? …then this story will inspire and empower you. ✨ Press play to hear Lauren's powerful testimony of surrender, faith, and courage—and discover how Microschool Masterminds can help you weave the tapestry of your own calling.  Starting a microschool comes with incredible joy—but it also comes with the pressure of making everyone happy: parents, students, even your staff. If you've ever felt the weight of parent expectations on your shoulders, this episode is for you. In today's conversation, I'm pulling back the curtain on how new founders can manage parent pressure without burning out. We'll talk about: ✨ Why boundaries are essential for your sanity and your school's success ✨ How proactive communication reduces conflict and builds trust ✨ The reality that confidence doesn't come overnight—it grows with systems, support, and consistency ✨ Practical ways to onboard parents, clarify expectations, and foster community involvement And most importantly, I'll remind you that you are not alone. What if you had a community of founders who reminded you that you're not crazy for doing this—and helped you do it well? That's exactly why I created Microschool Masterminds and the Open House Playbook. These resources are designed to give you the clarity, tools, and encouragement you need to lead with confidence.

The Embroiderers' Guild of America (egausa.org) is sponsoring this week's show about the America's Tapestry Delaware project. In our June 7, 2025 show, we met Stefan Romero, creator of the America's Tapestry project. The purpose of the project is to celebrate America's 250th anniversary with stitched panels from each of the 13 colonies that tell little-known stories about America's formative days. To learn all of the details, listen to that initial show with Stefan. This week, we meet with Stefan and Delaware co-chairs Becky Gutin and Amy Gilley to learn how they mapped out how to stitch the Delaware panel, their approach to making it possible for needleworkers of all skill levels to contribute to the panel, and what a stitching session is like. To keep up with the projects in all 13 colonies, visit americastapestry.com. To follow the Delaware project, join their Facebook group and/or follow them on Instagram. All links are listed below.

When and why does an artist become an artist?In my conversation with New York based, American-Pakistani artist, Tanya Minhas, we explore the invisible in art. Tanya shares her fascination for nature and the tiny moments, that inspire her thinking and her work.She shares the moment, that made it inevitable for her to commit fully to a life as an artist. It had to do with facing challenges, grief and searching for a language to be able to truly express herself and her emotions. ( As she quoted from a book she once read "Life is not all HiHi-HaHa"). Words would not suffice, and she strongly felt that the only true, freeing and authentic language for her was found in speaking through art. So she did and committed to fully be and live as an artist.Tanya's Pakistani heritage strongly influences her work, which particularly reflects in her current show. Tanya integrates and balances her artistic practice with family life - working when possible in a meditative state.Tanya Minhas has been showing her work successfully throughout the Eastcoast in various group shows and exhibitions. Her current solo show "A Tapestry of Dreams" is on view in New York City with her gallery Winston Wächter. Tanya holds a degree from Princeton University and an MBA from Columbia University. She started her career in management consulting, yet later joined the Arts Student League and studied portrait painting under MaryBeth McKenzie, to eventually move into abstract work.####On another note: I am so proud and excited to announce that SHIFT HAPPENS' Season 5 is supported by London based jewellery brand Tilly Sveaas.

At the EUVC Summit 2025, the award for Emerging Manager of the Year went to a team that has carved its place in Europe's venture ecosystem with grit, heart, and vision: Tapestry Venture.Founding Partners Patrick Murphy, Audrey Miller, David Kelly, and Alex McKenzie were celebrated for their relentless effort to build something new—not just for themselves, but for founders and LPs across the continent.Not Just Another Fund. Not Just Another Story.Tapestry isn't simply adding capital to the market. They're challenging the established players in Luxembourg's fund admin industry, pushing through barriers that often make it hard for emerging managers to break in.Patrick Murphy took the stage to accept the award, on behalf of his partners:“It's amazing to be able to work with people I like so much every day for the last five years. At least now we're all back in person—because it wasn't so fun on Zoom.”From Ireland to VenturePatrick's journey into venture wasn't planned.“I grew up in Ireland building computers and websites. I didn't know venture capital was even a thing—that people could believe in your dreams and then give you money to do something about them. It's pretty wild. I'm glad venture found me.”That spirit—of discovery, belief, and persistence—is what defines Tapestry.In Service to FoundersIf there was one theme in Patrick's words, it was service.“To be in venture is to be in service,” he said. “There's no exam, no syllabus, no license for board members—though I wish there was. There's no ombudsman, no complaint line for founders. So it's up to us to raise our own standards. To be in service to the great founders who want to change Europe and change the world.”That vision is backed by their LPs and by a belief that the ecosystem thrives not through competition alone, but through collaboration—co-investors and friends lifting each other up.Leadership That Raises the BarFor Tapestry Venture, winning Emerging Manager of the Year is less about the trophy and more about the mandate:To challenge entrenched structuresTo empower founders head-onTo raise the standards of venture itselfCongratulations to Patrick Murphy, Audrey Miller, David Kelly, and Alex McKenzie of Tapestry Venture—Emerging Manager of the Year.Because in their words: “We're all winners in this ecosystem. And we're going to be here for a long time.”
