Podcasts about Track record

The United States has been at war for more than 20 of the last 25 years. Afghanistan, Iraq and now Iran. Three major conflicts, all in the same region, and none of those conflicts have gone nearly as well as U.S Presidents said they would. We look at why the U.S. is so often at war and why it is finding them so hard to win.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

What if some of the greatest investment opportunities weren't hiding in Silicon Valley or Wall Street, but inside small businesses that have been overlooked for decades?In this episode of The Conscious Capitalists, hosts Timothy Henry and Raj Sisodia sit down with Monika Mantilla, Co-Founder, President & CEO of Altura Capital (https://alturacap.com/), to explore how patient capital, purpose-driven investing, and entrepreneurial success can create extraordinary financial returns while strengthening communities. Over the past 21 years, Monika has built a proven track record investing in lower middle market businesses across low-and-moderate-income communities, demonstrating that impact and performance are not competing priorities, but mutually reinforcing ones.Monika shares why Altura Capital was intentionally built as an investment platform rather than a traditional private equity fund, allowing the firm to provide flexible capital tailored to the unique needs of growing businesses. She explains why patient investment horizons of three to seven years, combined with operational partnership and long-term thinking, consistently outperform short-term approaches. Along the way, she introduces The Altura Way, the firm's ten-pillar value creation framework that helps companies strengthen strategy, operations, leadership, governance, digital transformation, and community impact while building more resilient businesses.The conversation also explores one of the largest untapped opportunities in modern investing. Monika discusses research conducted alongside 29 of America's largest corporations that identified an estimated $590 billion in unrealized value within underserved business segments. She explains how diverse ownership, improved market access, and stronger partnerships with companies such as Walmart, Kroger, CVS, Merck, and Johnson & Johnson help unlock growth that traditional investors often overlook.But this episode reaches far beyond investing. Monika reflects on the influence of her upbringing in Bogotá, Colombia, the lasting impact of her mother, her faith-driven approach to leadership, and the philosophy that guides both her life and business: ser en el hacer—being in the doing. She also shares her unique 200-hour planning system, organizing life into fourteen categories across eight-week cycles, and explains why she considers leading Altura to be only her seventh priority after ensuring the rest of her life is aligned with her values.Listeners will gain insights into:Why the lower middle market represents one of the most overlooked opportunities in private equityWhat patient capital really means and why long-term investing creates stronger businessesHow Altura's ten-pillar value creation framework systematically scales growing companiesWhy diverse ownership and investing in underserved communities can generate above-market returnsHow market access and strategic partnerships accelerate business growthWhy values, intentional leadership, and disciplined time management are foundational to long-term successThe role conscious capitalism can play in creating both economic progress and social progressWhether you're an investor, entrepreneur, business leader, or simply interested in how capitalism can be a force for lasting value creation, this episode offers a compelling conversation about building businesses that deliver exceptional returns while expanding opportunity for more people.If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify?

Kapitaldienstfähigkeit ist die eine Kennzahl, an der jede Immobilienfinanzierung steht oder fällt.In Teil 2 mit Nick wird es praktisch: wie du Objekte so entwickelst, dass die Bank mitgeht, und wie ein einziges Mietergespräch die Miete spürbar hebt.Darum geht es konkret:Warum die Bank zuerst auf die Kapitaldienstfähigkeit des Objekts schaut und wie du mit Track Record und 18 Monaten Tilgungsaussetzung trotzdem finanziert bekommstWie einvernehmliche Mietergespräche die Miete weit über die ortsübliche Vergleichsmiete heben, manchmal für rund 200 Euro MaterialeinsatzWarum Buchhaltung und Steuerthemen bei acht bis neun Gesellschaften zum größten Engpass beim Skalieren werdenNick hat neben dem Konzernjob über 150 Einheiten aufgebaut und ist zusätzlich als Berater bei mieteinander aktiv.---

Dave talks about how he's finally getting this putting gas in your vehicle thing down. 

Peter Lynch erzielte von 1977 bis 1990 eine durchschnittliche Jahresrendite von 29,2 %. Dies ist der beste Track Record eines öffentlichen Investmentfonds, in den damals laut Angaben von Lynch jeder hundertste Amerikaner oft mit kleinen Summen investiert war. Was war der größte Anlagefehler von Peter Lynch? Über diesen Anlagefehler sprechen wir heute und wir diskutieren auch, warum es sehr schwierig ist, diesen Fehler komplett zu vermeiden. Wir sprechen auch darüber, warum sich Peter Lynch auf dem Höhepunkt seiner Karriere als Fondsmanager mit 46 Jahren zurückgezogen hat.

Prayer is not just about getting your needs met—it's about living on assignment. God is not a cosmic concierge taking requests; He is a sovereign King who has a purpose for your life. When we pray, we acknowledge our dependence on Him while embracing the role He has given us in advancing His Kingdom."You're not here just to get your needs met. You're here on assignment. God created you with purpose, and prayer aligns your life with His plan. Every prayer should remind us that we belong to His Kingdom and have a role to play in it."

Pedro Escudero, CEO y fundador de Silverway Asset Management, presentó el lanzamiento de su fondo Silverway Global Apex Equity Fund, un vehículo registrado por la CNMV que busca acercar al inversor particular una estrategia habitualmente reservada a grandes patrimonios e instituciones. Según explica, la acogida ha sido muy positiva, con numerosas solicitudes de información y apertura de cuentas desde sus primeros días de actividad. Escudero define el proyecto como una “democratización de la inversión de élite”, apoyándose en un historial de rentabilidad que ha logrado superar a los mercados de forma consistente. La filosofía de inversión de Silverway se diferencia de los enfoques tradicionales porque combina tres pilares: Quality, Growth y Value. Para Escudero, la calidad es el factor más importante, ya que permite predecir con mayor precisión la evolución futura de los beneficios empresariales. En segundo lugar sitúa el crecimiento, entendido como la capacidad de una compañía para aumentar sus beneficios de forma sostenida. Solo después considera la valoración o el precio de la acción. Según Silverway, centrarse exclusivamente en el value investing puede llevar a invertir en empresas baratas que nunca generan valor para el accionista, mientras que la combinación de calidad, crecimiento y valoración ofrece mejores posibilidades de superar al mercado. En cuanto a sectores y oportunidades, destaca especialmente la tecnología, que forma parte de la cartera del fondo. Considera que el mercado está infravalorando algunas compañías de software al asumir erróneamente que la inteligencia artificial terminará por convertir ese negocio en una simple mercancía. El CEO de la empresa defiende que los modelos de IA necesitan datos específicos y conocimiento sectorial, algo que poseen las empresas de software especializado. Por ello, sigue viendo oportunidades atractivas en determinados nichos tecnológicos, siempre que presenten ventajas competitivas sólidas, capacidad de crecimiento y una elevada previsibilidad en sus resultados futuros. Además, defiende una cartera relativamente concentrada, ya que considera que una excesiva diversificación acerca los resultados a los del índice y dificulta obtener rentabilidades superiores. No obstante, matiza que concentrar no significa asumir más riesgo, sino seleccionar compañías con flujos de caja independientes entre sí y convicciones de inversión muy fuertes. Para él, la clave no es tener muchas posiciones, sino poseer las mejores empresas posibles y mantener una disciplina capaz de aprovechar las oportunidades que surgen durante las crisis de mercado.

„Leadership ist keine große Rede, sondern viele kleine Schritte jeden Tag.“ In dieser Folge von Behind the C spricht Franz Kubbillum mit Marc Thiery, Gründer und Managing Partner der Deutschen Private Equity (DPE). Der Fonds mit rund 3 Milliarden Euro Assets under Management investiert in wachstumsstarke mittelständische Unternehmen mit typischerweise 20 bis 300 Millionen Euro Umsatz – mit besonderem Fokus auf Nachfolgesituationen, Professionalisierung und internationales Wachstum im deutschen Mittelstand. DPE versteht sich dabei als langfristiger, unternehmerischer Partner, der Kapital, Erfahrung und Netzwerk einbringt, ohne operativ in das Tagesgeschäft einzugreifen. Thiery erzählt, wie er aus einer mittelständischen Unternehmerfamilie über Investment Banking, MBA in Boston, M&A-Mandate und internationale Private-Equity-Stationen zur Gründung von DPE kam – getrieben von der Idee, angloamerikanische Best Practices mit einem tiefen Verständnis für deutsche Mittelstandsunternehmer zu verbinden. Er beschreibt, welche Bausteine es braucht, um einen eigenen Fonds aufzusetzen (Track Record, LP-Vertrauen, Netzwerk), wie sich der Markt seit 2007 verändert hat und warum für ihn hohe professionelle Standards, kontinuierliches Lernen und eine Kultur aus Zusammenarbeit, Talententwicklung und echter Wertschätzung die Grundlage für nachhaltigen Erfolg im Private-Equity-Geschäft sind. Drei Fragen, die in dieser Episode im Fokus stehen: - Wie gründet und skaliert man in Deutschland einen Private-Equity-Fonds – von der ersten Investmentidee über Ankerinvestoren und Fundraising bis zum heutigen Portfolio? - Warum kann Private Equity gerade in Nachfolgesituationen ein idealer Partner für Mittelständler sein – und wie funktionieren Mehrfachverkäufe und Wertsteigerung für Unternehmer:innen in der Praxis? - Welche Rolle spielen Kultur, Standards und persönliche Routinen für Thiery als Managing Partner eines Fonds – von kontinuierlicher Verbesserung und Marktbeobachtung bis zu Empathie, Talententwicklung und „Facetime“ im Team?

In today's message, Pastor Chris walks us through Joshua 21, where we discover that God's promises are never dependent on circumstances, but on His unchanging character. What may seem like a chapter about cities and land assignments becomes a powerful testimony to the faithfulness of God, reminding us that what He promises, He remembers, fulfills, and guarantees.

Daily Snippet vom 21.04.2026 Einen wunderschönen Dienstagmorgen! Von 500 $ auf 19.000$, von 4.000$ auf 60.000$ und zuletzt auf über 100.000 $ – mein historischer Track-Record bei Bitcoin ist extrem stark. Aber seit über einem Jahr halte ich mich fern und investiere mein Geld stattdessen in die Nasdaq (die aktuell ein All-Time-High nach dem anderen feiert). Ich werde oft gefragt, wann ich wieder Krypto kaufe. Die Antwort ist simpel: Es müssen 3 harte Bedingungen erfüllt sein. Welche das sind, liest du im neuen Snippet. https://www.julianhosp.com/de/blog/daily-snippet-21-04-2026 —— So profitierst du von den großen Trends, ohne das Risiko eines Totalausfalls:

In this episode of The Bitcoin for Corporations Show, the leadership at Strive explains why traditional corporate balance sheets are ill-equipped to handle the dual threats of currency debasement and AI-driven industry disruption. They present data showing that technological shifts historically trigger a 50% turnover in the S&P 500, suggesting that companies failing to adopt digital assets are essentially "sitting ducks."The episode serves as a strategic guide for executives to use Bitcoin and digital credit as "civilizational insurance" to protect their margins and ensure long-term corporate survival.Chapters: 00:31 Strive's Evolution: From Anti-ESG to Bitcoin Treasury01:45 Solving the Retirement Crisis with Digital Credit03:08 The Bitcoin "iPhone Moment" and Exponential Growth06:54 Building Infrastructure for Institutional Adoption14:27 The Barrier to S&P 500 Bitcoin Adoption15:31 Why Corporations Treat Cash Like a "Hot Potato"19:30 AI Disruption and the Need for Robust Balance Sheets27:01 The Coming S&P 500 Turnover: Data and Trends31:08 Differentiating Strive's Strategy from MicroStrategy38:00 Game Theory and Corporate Decision Making43:02 Building a Track Record in the Bear MarketDISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed in this show are those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of BTC Inc., Bitcoin Magazine, or any affiliated entities.

In Part 1, he walks through the full buyer-led playbook — how the thesis was built on a contrarian bet that everyone else got wrong, how proprietary deals were sourced through early relationship-building, and why fast integration wasn't a reputation problem — it was a competitive advantage.  He also breaks down the metric trap most roll-up operators fall into: mistaking EBITDA growth for true value creation. If your board is tracking acquisitions individually or your deal structure is loaded with earnouts, this conversation will challenge how you're running the program. What you'll learn: How to identify and build a contrarian acquisition thesis with investor alignment Why proprietary deal flow is a brand and relationship problem, not a sourcing problem How Zayo executed an unsolicited, fully funded offer on a larger public company — and won Why tracking individual acquisitions kills synergies in a roll-up When earnouts hurt more than they help — and what to use instead How clean, all-cash offers win on certainty, not price Dan's approach to thesis validation, investor alignment, and platform value creation is documented in the Roll-Up Readiness Assessment inside the Intelligence Hub, a stage-gated guide built directly from this conversation.

Former Sprott CEO Kevin Bambrough on Hydrograph: Fractal Graphene, Nanotech's Breakout Moment Podcast hosts interview Kevin Bambrough, author and former Sprott CEO, about why he became a major shareholder in Hydrograph and why he believes graphene—specifically Hydrograph's turbo-stratic, fractal graphene aggregates—solves key industry problems like clumping and poor dispersion that plagued earlier graphite-derived approaches.   Bambrough recounts his investing background and explains graphene's sought-after properties (strength, conductivity, EMF shielding) and why Hydrograph's purity and SP2 bonding matter for real-world applications. The panel discusses potential use cases across polymers, coatings, tires, construction materials, batteries, semiconductors, and military needs, plus Hydrograph's patent moat and licensing potential. They cover manufacturing via acetylene/oxygen combustion in a chamber, economics such as a stated $250,000/ton price with far lower required loadings, modular "Hyperion" scaling, work with dozens of companies, and catalysts like EPA approvals, a possible Nasdaq listing, and a Texas gas-plant partnership, while noting execution and IP/theft as key risks. 00:00 Meet Kevin Bambrough 00:32 From Computers to Markets 01:57 Sprott Years and Track Record 03:19 Discovering Hydrograph 05:36 Graphene Hype vs Reality 07:46 Why Graphene Matters 11:21 Hydrograph Fractal Advantage 16:06 Sci Fi Use Cases 20:47 AI Accelerates Innovation 23:26 Moat Patents and Monopoly 26:42 Is the Stock a Bubble 30:59 Flow State Deep Research 35:38 Graphene Types and Construction 40:08 How the Graphene Is Made 41:48 Detonation Cycle Basics 42:34 Fractal Graphene Formation 43:58 Pricing And Battery Value 45:57 Polymer Bottles And Low Loading 49:13 Unit Economics And Scaling 51:59 First Customers And Auto Wins 56:24 Texas Gas Plant Expansion 59:16 Risks Patents And Execution 01:08:51 Catalysts Nasdaq And Deals 01:16:00 Final Takeaways And Wrap

This week on Swimming with Allocators, it's time for another discuss, debate, and question (DDQ) episode as Earnest and Alexa riff on founders behaving badly and the cultural and governance failures enabling fraud-like behavior, then dive into how enterprises will actually adopt AI and what that means for the future of SaaS and vertical software. They unpack the rise of GP-led secondaries, strip sales, and mounting impatience around liquidity, using recent market data to explain why secondary activity is accelerating. The conversation shifts to Brendan Baker's three-tier venture framework (mega, middle, and small funds), where they debate where innovation, desperation, and real differentiation will come from. They explore whether LPs should back first-time fund managers without a traditional track record, what “track record” should really mean, and why softer skills, pattern recognition, and learning velocity matter. They also discuss treating fundraisers like enterprise B2B sales, how to qualify LPs and build authentic GP–LP relationships, and close with a playful “start, bench, cut” on SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic to frame how they think about pre-IPO AI and space bets. Highlights from this week's conversation include: Prediction: 2026 as the Year of Founders Behaving Badly (1:16) Misuse of Startup Funds and Rise in Legal Issues (1:48) Narrative-Driven Investing and Weak Governance in VC (2:28) Enterprise AI Adoption: Rory O'Driscoll's Five Paths (3:25) Will Big SaaS Survive the “SaaS Apocalypse”?

Once I started eating, I couldn't stop. I wasn't a grazer – I was a binge eater. I ate in secret, whole packages at a time, with the door closed. When I came to Food Addicts in Recovery Anonymous (FA) at 20 years old, I was obese, deeply unhappy, and running out of hope. Today, at 58 years old and 85 pounds lighter, I have a blessed life in recovery. From age three, food lit me up like a Christmas tree. I remember being caught hiding behind a curtain at my parents' dinner party, secretly bingeing on dessert. My first diet was in sixth grade, and it began a pattern that lasted for years: intense excitement, a few days of success, and then the moment of insanity when I told myself I could have ‘just one bite.' From there, I was off to the races My brother was born with a heart defect, and I could feel the stress that my loving parents experienced. When I was 13, a surgery meant to fix his heart went wrong, and he died. When we lost him, our beautiful family circle was broken, and so was I. I gained 30 pounds that year and spent the rest of high school dieting. College was one long binge, until I found FA. Today, I'm married, raising two college-aged children – one transgender, one autistic – and caring for elderly parents. Life is full, imperfect, and deeply meaningful. For over thirty-five years now, I've maintained my right-sized body by asking my Higher Power for help—not just with food, but with life itself. My Higher Power has a perfect track record: every time I surrender to God's will, I get to live a beautiful life.

An FBI source told NewsNation it's "dumb" and "insane" — Sheriff Chris Nanos is allegedly blocking federal agents from accessing key evidence in the Nancy Guthrie case, routing a glove and DNA samples to a private Florida lab instead of Quantico. Nanos called the reports "not even close to the truth." But the documented history of this sheriff's credibility tells a very different story.From a 98.8 percent no-confidence vote by his own deputies, to an Arizona Attorney General investigation that flagged four policy violations, to placing his political opponent on leave weeks before an election he won by 481 votes — Nanos has spent years denying what the record confirms. And in the Guthrie case alone, he's admitted to releasing the crime scene early, contradicted himself publicly, grounded his best search aircraft over a personal dispute, and sat courtside at a basketball game while the family begged for Nancy's return.This episode lays out the full pattern — every claim sourced, every quote verified — and asks the only question that matters on Day 13 of this search: whose word has actually held up?#NancyGuthrie #ChrisNanos #FBI #PimaCountySheriff #SavannahGuthrie #TrueCrime #Kidnapping #Tucson #HiddenKillers #ColdCaseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop sits down with Lars van der Zande, founder and CEO/technical architect of Inkwell Finance, for what Lars describes as his first-ever podcast appearance. The conversation covers a wide range of blockchain infrastructure topics, including Lars's work with Sui and Solana blockchains, the innovative capabilities of Ika's programmatic wallets and blockchain of signatures, and how Inkwell Finance is building revenue-based financing solutions for on-chain entities—from AI agents to protocols. They explore the evolving landscape of crypto regulation, the merging of traditional finance with blockchain technology, the future of decentralized legal systems, and how the user experience barrier is being lowered through technologies that eliminate constant transaction signing. Lars also discusses Inkwell's embedded financing approach and their pre-seed fundraising round.Links mentioned:- Inkwell's website: inkwell.finance- Inkwell on Twitter: @__inkwell- Lars on Twitter: @LMVDZandeTimestamps00:00 Introduction to Inkwell Finance and Technical Architecture02:06 Understanding Sui and Solana: Blockchain Dynamics05:55 The Role of Ika in Inkwell Finance11:51 Leviathan: Revenue Generation and Financing in Crypto17:38 The Future of AI Agents and Programmatic Wallets23:23 Smart Contracts: Legal Implications and Future Directions25:06 The Future of Inqvil Finance25:42 Decentralization and Its Evolution27:32 The Merging of Traditional and Crypto Systems29:33 Global Financial Dynamics and Market Reactions31:48 The Collapse of Traditional Financial Systems32:46 Jurisdictional Shifts in the Crypto World33:59 Legal Systems and Blockchain Integration35:57 On-Chain Credit and Financial Opportunities39:29 The Role of AI in Finance41:30 Learning from Peer-to-Peer Lending History43:14 Disruption in Insurance and Risk Management44:54 On-Chain vs Off-Chain Data46:54 The Evolution of the Internet and Blockchain49:12 Future Subscription Models in BlockchainKey Insights1. Ika's Revolutionary Blockchain Signature Technology: Lars discovered Ika, a blockchain of signatures built on Sui that enables any blockchain transaction to be signed without revealing the underlying message. Using patented 2PC MPC technology, Ika splits key shares across validators and encrypts them in transit, performing complex cryptographic operations that allow smart contracts on Sui to generate signatures for transactions on any other blockchain. This eliminates the need to build separate smart contracts on each blockchain, fundamentally changing how cross-chain interactions work and opening possibilities for truly interoperable decentralized applications.2. Programmatic Wallets vs Traditional Wallets: Traditional wallets like MetaMask require manual user approval for every transaction through a front-end interface, but Ika's D-wallet introduces programmatic wallets with policy-based controls embedded in smart contracts. These wallets can execute transactions based on predetermined conditions checked against on-chain data like Oracle prices, without requiring individual user signatures. For example, a Bitcoin D-wallet can hold native Bitcoin without wrapping or bridging to a custodian, and smart contract policies determine when and how that Bitcoin can be transferred, creating unprecedented security and automation possibilities for decentralized finance.3. Inkwell's Revenue-Based Financing Model: Inkwell Finance is building Leviathan, a revenue-based financing platform for on-chain entities including protocols, AI agents, and individual traders with verifiable track records. Borrowers receive capital based on their on-chain performance metrics like sharp ratio and drawdown, with loan repayment automatically deducted from their revenue stream. The profit split structure allocates approximately 60% to borrowers, 30% to lenders, and 10% split between Inkwell and integrating platforms. This creates a sustainable lending model where flight risk is minimized through D-wallet policy controls that restrict how borrowed capital can be used.4. Wallet-as-a-Protocol and the Future of User Experience: The crypto industry is moving toward embedded wallet solutions that eliminate the friction of traditional wallet management, with Wallet-as-a-Protocol representing the next evolution beyond services like Privy and Dynamic. Unlike current embedded wallets that lock users into specific applications, Wallet-as-a-Protocol enables single sign-on across multiple applications while users maintain control of their keys. Combined with app-sponsored gas fees, this approach allows non-crypto-native users to interact with blockchain applications without knowing they're using crypto, removing the biggest barrier to mainstream adoption and creating web2-like user experiences on web3 infrastructure.5. AI Agents as Financial Entities: AI agents are emerging as revenue-generating entities with on-chain transaction histories that create verifiable track records for creditworthiness assessment. Inkwell Finance is specifically targeting this market, recognizing that AI agents will need wallets and capital to operate effectively. The programmatic nature of D-wallets pairs perfectly with AI agents, as policy controls can restrict agent behavior to specific smart contract interactions, preventing unauthorized fund transfers while allowing automated trading or revenue generation. This creates a new category of borrower that operates 24/7 with completely transparent performance metrics, fundamentally different from traditional loan recipients.6. Cross-Chain Liquidity Without Asset Transfer: Ika's technology enables users to take loans against revenue generated on one blockchain and deploy that capital on entirely different blockchains without moving their original liquidity positions. For instance, someone earning yield on Sui's Fusol protocol could borrow against that revenue stream and deploy capital on Solana opportunities, effectively creating multiple on-chain businesses that generate their own credit scores and revenue to service debt. This ability to read state across different blockchains from within smart contracts opens possibilities for multi-chain strategies that don't require withdrawing capital from productive positions, maximizing capital efficiency across the entire crypto ecosystem.7. The Convergence of Traditional Finance and Crypto Infrastructure: The regulatory landscape is rapidly evolving with initiatives like the Genius Act and Clarity Act creating frameworks where traditional financial systems merge with crypto infrastructure through mechanisms like stablecoins backed by US treasuries. Companies are increasingly establishing entities in the United States to access capital networks and Delaware's established legal framework while issuing tokens through jurisdictions like Switzerland. This hybrid approach, combined with emerging concepts like Gabriel Shapiro's "cybernetic agreements" that make smart contract parameters legally enforceable in traditional courts, suggests the future isn't pure decentralization but rather a sophisticated integration of on-chain and off-chain legal and financial systems.

Born inside a bank 25 years ago, spun out almost a decade ago, and now a multi-generational partnership, the firm has backed some of Portugal's most important tech companies and quietly built a track record of dragons (fund-returners), not just unicorns.Fund IV doubles down on what the team knows best: early-stage, tech-intensive companies across data, digitalization, and connectivity, with a strong focus on Portugal & Spain and selective investments across the rest of Europe.ShareHere's what's covered:01:17 | What is “Armilar”?02:30 | Origins & Spinout 03:40 | Why being based in Portugal with almost no local ecosystem 04:50 | From US to Europe, Then Back Home 07:22 | Fund IV in a Nutshell 09:44 | Geography & LP Backbone11:41 | Track Record, DPI & Dragons 13:51 | Selected Portfolio & Staying Power 16:19 | Team & Generational Design 21:38 | Iberia's State of Play (Portugal & Spain) 27:45 | Golden Visa & LP Angle 29:29 | Closing & What LPs Should Care About

The inevitable never happens. It is the unexpected always. -- J.M. Keynes 1938   Almost everyone plays with predicting the future. Persons who speak with presumed authority and say that some outlandish thing is inevitable often get a lot of media attention. The more media attention, the more people come to think that the outlandish thing really is inevitable. In warfare, I have lived through the inevitability of guerilla warfare as the model for all future warfare; the inevitable demise armored warfare, the transformation of maneuver warfare; counter-insurgency warfare as the inevitable future war form; and more recently, that drones will so dominate the battlefield, that all previous forms of warfighting will be obsolete. In my opinion, inevitability has a rather bad track record. From time to time in these podcasts, I will revisit some of these predictions and see which of these were inevitable and which were overcome by reality.   The information in these podcasts is solely my own opinion and do not represent the position of the U.S. Department of Defense, or any other organization I am or have ever been associated with.   Certified 100% natural intelligence.
