The Hoover Institution held a conversation on What is the Role of Future International Collaboration: Risks and Opportunities on January 22, 2024 from 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM PT. Dr. Thomas Mason addressed aspects of research openness and the daily need to protect the information that is critically important to universities, National Labs, the federal government, and the private sector. The conversation was followed by a 30 minute Q&A.  As a national security science laboratory Los Alamos National Lab has worked to strike the right balance between openness of research and protection of information for over eighty years. The talk addressed the historic importance of open international collaboration in fostering rapid innovation with economic and national security benefits while still recognizing the need to manage the risks that come with international engagement. SPEAKER Thomas Mason is the President and CEO of Triad National Security, LLC (Triad) and serves as the Director of Los Alamos National Laboratory. Most recently he was the Senior Vice President for Global Laboratory Operations at Battelle where he had responsibility for governance and strategy across the six National Laboratories that Battelle manages or co-manages. Prior to joining Battelle, Thom worked at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) for 19 years, including 10 years as the Laboratory Director. Under his leadership, ORNL saw significant growth in programs, new facilities, and hiring while achieving record low safety incident rates. Before becoming Laboratory Director, he was Associate Laboratory Director (ALD) for Neutron Sciences, ALD for the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS), and Director of the Experimental Facilities Division. During his time in Oak Ridge, Thom was active in the community serving as Chair of the Oak Ridge Public Schools Education Foundation as well as Innovation Valley, the Knoxville-Oak Ridge area regional economic development organization. He moved to ORNL from the University of Toronto where he was a faculty member in the Department of Physics and previously worked as a Senior Scientist at Risø National Laboratory and a Postdoc at AT&T Bell Laboratories. For the past 30 years, he has been involved in the design and construction of scientific instrumentation and facilities and the application of nuclear, computing, and materials sciences to solve important challenges in energy and national security. Thom has a Ph.D. in Experimental Condensed Matter Physics from McMaster University and a BSc in Physics from Dalhousie University. INTRODUCTORY REMARKS BY Norbert Holtkamp is a Science Fellow at the Hoover Institution. Holtkamp is also a professor of particle physics and astrophysics and of photon science at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory at Stanford University BACKGROUND International collaborations and research openness have been enormously beneficial to the United States supporting rapid advances of world leading Science & Technology in our country. They brought a large group of incredibly talented people from around the world to come work with US science and technology industry. In the end, many of them stayed which provided a pipeline for innovation and business growth helping to maintain a standard of “world leading.” The simple fact that others successfully try to copy the process should encourage the US to continue. In a changing world though where the standards of research openness are not shared anymore, managing the risks better than in the past becomes essential. Research openness and specifically international collaboration with friends and opponents always carries the risk of unwanted release of information. Industrial espionage in the private sector does have negative economic impact, can threaten national security, or lose competitive advantages. Over the past few years, there has been a significant rise in the systematic collection of intellectual property on a broad scale within the domains of private, public, and national security sectors. This development has had a profound impact on the global research community. Research openness is commonly understood and shared by much of the World's science community and led by the US, for long was captured in a quite simple National Security Decision Directive (NSDD-189). Essentially: “It's open until it's classified”. While NSDD-189 wasn't abandoned officially yet, effectively it has been in many instances. New definitions “CUI = Confidential but Unclassified Information,” central control of international collaboration agreements, top down managed travel restrictions of “going to” or “inviting in”, strictly enforced Conflict of Interest agreements are all existing elements in a new world that grapples with the balance between openness and benefit from it versus risk of losing. The US needs a pipeline of trained engineers, scientists, and entrepreneurs. Without inviting a substantial foreign national contingent into our schools and universities from which many will typically stay, it is not clear that US demographics would even allow the US alone to fill this pipeline. Whether it is the academic or private sector: it is essential to understand in more detail how international collaboration provided and can provide in the future economic benefit, intelligence insight, faster scientific discoveries, and sometimes even aiding diplomatic efforts and continue to bring the best and brightest innovators to the US. As part of the project, each of these elements (faster scientific advance – economic benefit – intelligence & insight – demographics & talent recruiting) will be addressed.

#8 Daniel Lévy - de démonstrateur à chemisier sur-mesure pour hommes

Aujourd'hui, l'invité du Podcast Gentleman Chemistry, est un chemisier sur mesure pour homme que je fréquente depuis plusieurs années maintenant. Il me reçoit dans sa boutique-boudoir nichée au 3, rue du Cirque, à deux pas des palaces La Réserve, le Bristol et du Palais de l'Elysée, dans le très chic huitième arrondissement de Paris. Selon Daniel Lévy, un beau vêtement c'est une somme de détail qui nécessitent du temps ; c'est pour cela qu'il s'adresse à une clientèle exigeante qui sait faire la différence, en appréciant les bonnes et belles choses. De Bergerac à ParisDaniel Lévy naît à Bergerac en 1966 d'un père agent immobilier/agent de voyage et d'une mère libraire. Daniel Lévy a grandi bercé par la musique New Wave, jazz et classique en bande. Son blouson Mac Douglas sur les épaules, avec sa tignasse, il vécut une enfance paisible à Bergerac, jusqu'à la terminale, pour ensuite se rendre à Paris, en 1987, pour fréquenter la Sorbonne pour un DEUG d'histoire de l'art en caressant l'envie de devenir commissaire-priseur qu'il a dû freiner pour de nombreuses raisons. Brummell, grand magasin de vêtements pour hommeDurant cette expérience universitaire, il fut engagé pour des extras en tant que démonstrateur dans la section vêtements pour hommes du grand magasin Printemps Haussmann à Paris, appelé le Brummell, pour des marques telles que : ·      Yves Saint-Laurent  ·      Dormeuil  ·      Dior ·      Zins… Durfor, chemises sur mesureTrès tôt, la nécessité d'indépendance se fait ressentir ; du coup Daniel Lévy se fait embaucher au Brummell mais, cette fois, à temps plein. En 1990, un ancien collègue qui travaillait pour un chemisier appelé Durfor laissait sa place devenue vacante en proposant l'opportunité à Daniel Lévy qui ne se fit pas attendre pour accepter le poste dans la très chic Place Vendôme, en face d'un autre chemisier pour homme emblématique à Paris : Charvet. Durfor produisait des chemises sur mesure réalisées par des couturières dans un petit atelier en Normandie, à Flers. C'est  avec cette expérience que débute l'attrait pour la chemise sur mesure et le souci du détail de Daniel Lévy. Durfor concevait des chemises de fabrication assez rustique se traduisant par de choix de tissus en popelines d'alsace (des tissus construits avec une chaine simple et un fil assez grossier à la différence d'un fil en double retors, deux fils tordus entre eux garantissant solidité et élasticité à la chemise – plus le fil est fin, plus le toucher est soyeux et la définition des dessins précise) mais qui restait cependant de belles chemises qualitatives, correspondant à une époque révolue (où la tendance n'était plus aux tissus épais mais aux tissus fins). Liste Rouge, Marcel Bur et Elysées SoieriesL'histoire de Durfor dura jusqu'en 1995 date à laquelle la Maison fut rachetée par Michelle Monier qui la rebaptisa par la suite Liste Rouge (rachetée précédemment, alors spécialisée dans les chaussures anglaises en demi-mesure). En 1998,  Liste Rouge Chemise s'installe au 138, rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, dans le huitième arrondissement de Paris, en englobant les ateliers de Marcel Bur, ancien tailleur ayant eu ses heures de gloire et Elysées Soieries, une marque proposant de très belles chemises en prêt-à-porter. Liste Rouge chez qui Daniel Lévy a perfectionné son œil attentif aux étoffes de vestes, aux tissus de chemises, à la belle facture, aux détails des chemises et à leurs coupes mais, surtout, au service rendu aux clients jusqu'en 2014 - est encore aujourd'hui un agrégat de ces 3 entités. Daniel Lévy, le coq chemisier prend son envolDaniel Lévy décide de tourner la page avec son expérience auprès de la Maison Liste Rouge sentant sa courbe de croissance stagner. Il décide alors, comme il me le raconte, de se prendre par la peau du dos pour faire ce qu'il avait envie de faire : faire des chemises telles qu'il les aime, faire des vêtements tels qu'il les aime. L'Homme sur Mesure SASEn décembre 2014,, il crée alors sa société l'Homme sur Mesure en trouvant au même moment un local au 3, rue du Cirque. Il tombe tout de suite amoureux du lieu, y fait quelques travaux d'aménagement et ouvre enfin la boutique de chemises sur mesure Daniel Lévy en février 2015 avec un capital social de 30 000€. Avec l'expérience emmagasinée, Daniel Lévy était bien armé : ·      Il avait l'expérience professionnelle nécessaire. ·      Il connaissait ses futurs fournisseurs et confectionneurs. ·      Il jouissait d'un vivier de clients qui l'avaient suivi par affinité et par la sympathie qu'il entretenait dans sa relation clientèle dans sa dernière expérience. La boutique de chemises sur mesure de la rue du CirqueLa rue du Cirque est une perpendiculaire de la rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré située au coin du Palace la Réserve et à quelques pas seulement d'un autre Palace, le Bristol, et du Palais de l'Elysée. Elle n'est pas, à proprement parler, une rue passante pour faire du shopping, mais elle jouit d'un passage extrêmement qualitatif : ·      Milliardaires ·      Galeristes ·      Célébrités ·      Politiques ·      et autres hommes d'affaires y habitent ou transitent constituant ainsi les premiers leads de Daniel Lévy. L'empathieDaniel Lévy nous explique faire de belles chemises comme d'autres de ses confrères mais avec sa valeur rajouté : l'empathie et aimer au sens large du terme ses clients avec un service personnalisé dont bénéficient les clients reçus entre ses murs. En faisant preuve de ce que lui appelle l'élégance du cœur et le savoir être jamais hors contexte dans le milieu dans lequel il évolue. Levier marketing : pub dans Dandy Magazine & Monsieur MagazineDès les premières ventes, Daniel Lévy mise sur une stratégie Marketing ciblant la presse masculine spécialisée, notamment avec les deux supports dont il est fidèle lecteur Dandy Magazine et Monsieur Magazine. Ensuite, le bouche à oreille fait briller le nom au travers de la capitale et ailleurs et, plus récemment, l'activité est en  présence constante sur les réseaux sociaux (instagram, facebook…). Le client de la chemise sur mesure Daniel LévyDaniel Lévy nous explique qu'il travaille avec deux types de clients au quotidien : 1.     Le client qui sait quelle chemise il veut. 2.    Le client qui ne sait pas ce qu'il veut, ressentant le besoin de se faire guider avec pédagogie pour choisir son : ·      tissu ·      coupe ·      col ·      poignets ·      et finitions L'expérience Daniel Lévy ChemisierLe début de la relation instaurée avec un nouveau client commence par une écoute active en essayant de répondre à ses désirs. Daniel Lévy propose alors dans son offre de chemises sur mesure : ·      Plus de 2000 tissus en coton, coton et soie, cashmere, velours en provenance des tisserands du groupe Albini principalement (Albini, Thomas Mason, David & John Anderson et Albiate) ; Alumo ; Carlo Riva ; Sictess ; Söktas… ·      Plus d'une vingtaine de cols et poignets de chemise déclinables à l'infini (par exemple si le client souhaite un col semi italien avec des longueurs de pointes à 8,5cm, un pied de col à 3,5cm, un revers à 4cm). ·      Il n'y a pas de limites, ce qui fait l'atout du sur mesure Il nous explique que, pour lui, le sur mesure c'est plus l'amplitude des possibilités de choix que les mesures en elles-mêmes. La faculté d'avoir un col énorme, d'avoir chaque détail qui va être pensé, réfléchi, par le client et par l'intervention de Daniel Lévy au besoin. Prototypage de la chemise sur mesure Daniel LévyLors de la conception d'une chemise pour un nouveau client, Daniel Lévy réalise alors un prototypage sur toile aux mesures du client. La toile sera par la suite validée en y apportant au besoin des modifications nécessaires pour enfin envoyer l'intégralité de la fabrication de la chemise. Essayage de la chemiseAprès une quinzaine de jours d'attente, Daniel Lévy rappelle son client pour lui proposer l'essayage avant de le livrer (s'il ne faut pas apporter de modifications supplémentaires à la chemise sur mesure réalisée). Le temps de réalisation d'une chemise de la commande à la livraison est d'un bon mois. Fabrication des chemises sur mesure made in France Daniel Lévy fait fabriquer dans deux ateliers basés là où le savoir faire des métiers  de la chemise est, depuis toujours, dans le centre de la France : ·      Touraine ·      Indre ·      Deux-Sèvres ·      Creuse… Il décrit la chemise française à mi-chemin entre la chemise anglaise et la chemise italienne (napolitaine comme pourraient l'être : Siniscalchi, Avino Laboratorio Napoletano ou un Salvatore Piccolo). Montage de la chemise sur-mesure françaiseLa chemise sur mesure française se caractérise par une fabrication essentiellement mécanisée hormis les boutonnières cousues à la main, les boutons à 4 trous en nacre australienne de la qualité la plus blanche avec ses très caractéristiques reflets colorés (plats avec une légère cuvette) cousus à la main et les broderies des initiales réalisées, elles aussi, à la main. Le bouton de chemise plat permet un boutonnage et déboutonnage plus facile des broderies réalisées à la main (la dernière boutonnière est cousue de façon horizontale pour éviter que le dernier bouton soumis à une tension ne s'ouvre : un détail de plus). La coupe des chemises Daniel LévyLes chemises sur mesure Daniel Lévy bénéficient d'une coupe relativement ample qui est à mi chemin entre la coupe très confortable anglaise et une coupe ajustée italienne, toujours en respectant les envies de sa clientèle exigeante. Des cols de chemises rigides et avec baleines en écaille de tortue Les cols des chemises Daniel Lévy sont plutôt rigides avec une triplure et entoilage plus épais par rapport aux chemises napolitaines donnant de la fermeté au col et maintenus par des baleines amovibles. Daniel Lévy propose également des baleines en écaille de tortue réalisées sur mesure par l'écailliste Daniel Bernard. Le sur mesure vs le prêt-à-porterDaniel Lévy différencie l'activité du sur mesure avec celle du prêt-à-porter en expliquant que pour avoir une activité saine et pérenne on ne peut pas faire du one shot avec un client en essayant de lui vendre n'importe quoi. Il faut le fidéliser avec de la constance dans le temps, ne gagnant pas d'argent à la première commande mais à la suite, après avoir fait une chemise d'essai, en faisant le pari que le client lui reste fidèle. Les demandes les plus fréquentesLe gros des ventes de chemises sur mesure Daniel Lévy se focalise sur des tissus blancs et bleus en : ·      popelines ·      twills ·      oxfords ·      ou autres West Sea Island ·      denims ·      des mélanges en coton et cashmere pour le froid ·      pour l'été le coton et lin ·      le lin ·      le giro inglese (ou à nid d'abeille) très frais ·       quelques velours, imprimés et autres micro dessins… Tissus de chemises d'exceptionDaniel Lévy propose des tissus d'exception, techniquement remarquable, à titrage élevé, très agréables à porter (du fil le plus fin, plus luxueux, au fil le plus épais) : ·      300/2 ·      200/2 ·      100/2 ·      70/2 Le coton de tissus de chemisesL'origine de la matière première constituant une chemise, est très importante : le coton. La longueur de la fibre du coton varie de la plus courte à la plus longue (les plus coûteuses). Avec les plus longues fibres de coton, on peut filer des fils plus fins et plus longs (jusqu'à 5cm de long) tels le West Sea Island qui pousse sur les îles des caraïbes (principalement sur l'île Barbade). Puis viennent les cotons égyptiens avec le Giza 45 et le Giza 87 également avec des diamètres de fil (titrages) extrêmement fins. À partir de ce coton, on pourra filer des fils extrêmement fins pour tisser les tissus les plus fins et luxueux du monde, en obtenant également une définition de dessin sans égale et une construction en chaîne et en trame des plus solides comportant un nombre de fils plus élevé que sur un tissu bas de gamme. Un autre détail qui fera la différence sur le produit fini. Porter une belle chemise, bien faite : un acte militantD'après Daniel Lévy, il faudrait plus de pédagogie pour expliquer pourquoi il faudrait porter une belle chemise bien faite : 1.     Car cela procure du plaisir et une satisfaction personnelle décuplée, donnant plus belle allure qu'une chemise commune 2.    Une coupe et une personnalisation unique 3.    Ça préserve des emplois locaux 4.    Un vêtement bien fait dans des tissus qu'on ne trouve pas en grande consommation dure plus longtemps (100 lavages moyenne de durée de vie d'une bonne chemise), en pouvant changer les cols et poignets 5.    S'offrir une chemise de qualité n'est pas un investissement plus coûteux par rapport au nombre de ports vs plusieurs chemises bas de gamme qui se terniront et dont vous vous lasserez plus rapidement L'offre total look sur mesure de vêtements masculins par Daniel LévyLe premier métier de Daniel Lévy est de proposer bien entendu des chemises sur mesure avec une proposition allant de 280€ à 380€ pour une première fabrication mécanisée et 500€ et 600€ pour un deuxième type de fabrication encore plus artisanal. Daniel Lévy dans son plan de collection propose également : ·      Des costumes sur mesure. ·      La veste iconique Monsieur Daniel : une veste en flanelle de laine ou cashmere (l'été en toile de lin ou toile de coton) à mi-chemin entre des surchemises et des vestes classiques à porter avec ou sans cravate, moins classique qu'un costume traditionnel non entoilé, sans padding ni d'épaule qui rappellerait une veste d'architecte ou forestière Arnys. ·      Des pulls en cashmere sur mesure fabriqués en Italie de 600€ à 2000€ (pour un 8 fils). ·      Petits accessoires comme les baleines en écaille de  tortue ·      Des boutons de manchettes dessinées avec une styliste de bijou, pensés pour qu'ils ne soient pas trop contraignants à mettre ou à enlever. ·      Des gants sur mesure réalisés à Millau comportant des coutures main sur de somptueuses peaux en pécary ou carpincho ·      De la petite maroquinerie avec des ceintures sur mesure ·      Des cravates, écharpes, pochettes et chaussettes viennent compléter l'offre que propose Daniel Lévy   J'ai pris beaucoup de plaisir dans la réalisation de cette interview.

Very few brands out there are as special as Husbands right now. Paris’s chicest tailoring house occupies a unique position in the new community of brands taking root in the French capital. Nicolas founded his boutique in 2012, following over a decade working in law and then communications, and this move into menswear has given him a new lease of life. His approach to clothing is distinctly philosophical; he argues that ‘a suit is not just a suit’, but a tool to empower men to become the very best version of themselves – to be better fathers and husbands, for example.He insists that everything Husbands does is founded in a deep appreciation of culture, and he draws an important distinction between brands that merely ‘sell clothes’ and those which take care to ‘dress people’.

Ethan’s passion for clothing is extraordinary, as is his self-assured perspective on what makes menswear special. Tune in for some insight into the founding philosophy of Bryceland’s & Co, Ethan’s own take on where indie menswear’s at, and to hear the two explore Ethan’s own personal mantra: ‘if you like who are, be who you are”. We hope you enjoy.***HandCut Radio is proud to be sponsored by Thomas Mason, an historic mill that’s been supplying famous designers, shirtmakers and tailors with world class shirting fabrics since 1796.***Show Notes:Ethan Newton — Website | Instagram[02:22] Bryceland’s & Co[03:01] Kenji Cheung[03:06] RRL [03:07] The Armoury[09:34] The Rake[10:53] Jimmy Stuart[10:54] Cary Grant[10:54] Gary Cooper[14:08] Saint Crispin’s[16:38] Bryceland's Sawtooth Westerner Denim Shirt[32:08] Adam Rogers[32:08] Adret by Adam Rogers[32:14] Scott Fraser Simpson[32:18] Scott Fraser Simpson Knitwear[32:21] Drake’s---HandCut Radio is produced by Birch, a London based creative agency.

In this episode of Tangled, I speak to Nadine Galle. Nadine is a consultant at Metabolic, meaning she is a colleague of Thomas Mason, who I spoke to in episode 5. If you’ve listened to that show, you’ll know that Metabolic is a consulting and venture building firm that helps companies, communities and cities to move towards a circular – and more sustainable – economy. Nadine is also one of the academic directors of a summer school course at the University of Amsterdam, called The Circular City. The programme explores the urban metabolism – meaning the flows of materials and energy coming into and going out of cities. I recently took part in the first edition of the course, which involved lectures and field trips around Amsterdam and other parts of the Netherlands, hearing from people who are designing new and interesting ways of managing resources. On top of her other work, Nadine is somehow also managing to pursue a PhD. Her research is in a new field called ecological engineering, which she will explain during our conversation. We also talk about what a circular economy really means, why we need to redesign cities to take natural ecosystem processes into account, and what Rubik’s cubes can teach us about problem solving. You can find Nadine online at nadinegalle.com and on Twitter @earthtonadine
