Residents of a small Nevada town were promised high-speed fiber internet from Reno-based Uprise Fiber. Nearly 3 years later, there is no progress whatsoever and $9 million allocated to the project by the state is missing. Now, investigations have been launched and the story has shifted to the Nevada legislature. The story may not have been uncovered and certainly would not have received the amount of attention it has if not for the dogged efforts of KRNV News 4 evening anchor and investigative reporter Joe Hart. This episode, host Ben Margiott and Joe walk listeners through the Uprise Fiber scandal from the start. How did this happen? Who is to blame? Are the people responsible being held accountable? And how can the state put in safeguards to prevent this from happening again?

Launching a startup is challenging. It becomes even more difficult when tackling personal and business finances that confound entrepreneurs. Enter Uprise, the brainchild of Jessica Chen Riolfi and her co-founders. Uprise offers human-driven financial advisory services embedded into small business (SMB) platforms, like banks or personal finance sites. Uprise addresses the unique financial needs of entrepreneurs which include dealing with personal and professional cashflow. Jessica has extensive experience from companies like Robinhood, Earnin, Wise, and eBay. This background drives her approach to financial services. Jessica shares, “Financial advisory, in this context, combines personal and business finances. It helps entrepreneurs make holistic financial decisions.” Lack of personalized financial advisory services at Robinhood inspired the genesis of Uprise, especially for SMBs. Jessica shares a passion for simplifying financial products with her co-founders Chris and Nantha. Together, they work to make financial solutions more accessible, bridging the gap between business and personal finance for small business owners. Uprise initially targeted Gen Z and millennials but quickly pivoted to focus on older SMB owners. This shift met the growing demand for comprehensive financial advice. It specifically targeted consultants, freelancers, and creators. “The small business world is one where personal and financial lives are intermingled,” Jessica notes. She underscores the intricate needs of her firm's clientele. The genesis of Uprise Uprise emerges from a vision shared by Jessica and her co-founders, Chris and Nantha. They noticed the gap in financial advisory services for SMBs, where personal and business finances often overlap. As Jessica puts it, “We help them make financial decisions. And we kind of ignore the line between business and personal.” This approach recognizes the unique needs of entrepreneurs. Role of embedded finance in Small Business growth Embedded finance is at the core of Uprise's model. It is integrated into SMB platforms and Jessica explains, “Every small business owner interacting with our platform is assigned a human advisor.” This strategy not only builds trust but also addresses the specific financial advisory needs of SMBs. It offers a personalized experience. Jessica highlights the importance of understanding the distinct needs of different SMB sectors. For example, therapists using the vertical SaaS platform, Heard, prioritize personal relationships. This prompted Uprise to offer more direct communication channels like Zoom calls. “Calls matter a lot to therapists,” Jessica observes. She illustrates Uprise's adaptability to various client preferences. Financial planning for entrepreneurs Uprise has tailored its services to the intricate financial landscapes faced by entrepreneurs. Jessica emphasizes the importance of understanding personal and business finances. She highlights how they are interconnected. She offers advice on entity setup, retirement account options, and mortgage applications. “These are business-related questions, but they very much impact their finances,” Jessica emphasizes. She highlights Uprise's holistic approach. Building successful partnerships with SMB platforms Uprise's success is intertwined with its partnerships, where Jessica sees a collaborative effort. She notes, “It's very much a revenue driver for our partners, who are SMB platforms.” Uprise customizes its offerings to meet the unique needs of each platform. This ensures that both partners and end users enjoy their financial advisory services.

Small business creation has been on the rise in the U.S. since the pandemic. There are a lot of tech tools designed to help these companies with things like payroll or setting up retirement benefits — but more tools doesn't mean small businesses know how to use them to make smart decisions.

In our latest episode of "Boom, It's on the Blockchain," we sit down with Jonathan Knight, CEO of Uprise Energy, to discuss their groundbreaking 15kW Portable Wind Turbine and its implications for renewable energy in the defense sector. The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) is one of the world's largest single energy consumers, relying heavily on oil and gas for heating, lighting, and transportation. This dependency not only contributes significantly to pollution but also poses risks to national security due to reliance on foreign fossil fuels. Jonathan delves into how Uprise Energy's portable wind turbine can help mitigate these issues. This innovative system, which can be shipped in a 20' container or two in a 40' ISO container, is towable by a standard vehicle and sets up in just one hour by a single person. Capable of powering up to 15 average US homes, villages, factories, farms, military installations, and off-grid commercial operations, it operates independently of the power grid and is optimized for low wind speed conditions. With President Biden's Executive Order 14057 mandating the use of electricity that is 100% free of carbon pollution by 2035, the DoD is not exempt from utilizing renewable energy for heating, cooling, lighting, and communications on military bases. Jonathan explains how Uprise Energy's technology offers a clean energy alternative to diesel-powered generators, making power for considerably less expense than the competition without requiring site improvements, heavy equipment, or a specialized workforce. Beyond the defense sector, we explore renewable energy innovations in farming and the future of microgrid and nanogrid systems. Jonathan delves into the intricacies of wind turbine maintenance and the transformative impact of mobile energy systems on remote and off-grid communities. Tune in to discover how Uprise Energy is shaping a sustainable future with versatile and resilient energy solutions.

They discuss the intricate process of selecting authors and titles for publication, the collaborative relationship between authors and publishers, and the importance of fitting the right publisher with the right author. It takes time for authors to find the right publishing path. Part of that is because of the importance of aligning an author's vision with the publisher's ethos.

His eventual partnership with Morgan James Publishing highlights how important it is for authors to find a publisher that not only believes in their idea but also aligns with their message and audience. The role of the literary scout/acquisitions editor can influence the publishing process for authors. Isaiah Taylor spoke about his role in championing books that serve the reader and support the author's vision. His approach is not just about the content but also the author's intent and ability to engage with their audience.

In the latest episode of BOOM! It's on the Blockchain we are joined by Jonathan Knight, CEO of Uprise Energy to discuss Climate Change, Israel & Palestine Conflict, and Distributed Power: A Complex Interplay. The intersection of climate change, the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the concept of distributed power presents a complex and multifaceted web of challenges and opportunities. While these issues may seem unrelated at first glance, they share a deep connection that requires careful consideration. In this podcast we discuss the complex interplay between climate change, the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the concept of distributed power illustrates the importance of addressing global issues through a multidisciplinary lens. Climate change acts as a stressor that exacerbates existing tensions, but distributed power offers a path towards resilience, collaboration, and conflict resolution. Jonathan elucidates that apart from providing immediate access to electricity, distributed power systems have the capacity to foster economic opportunities and catalyze economic growth, which, in turn, addresses fundamental social and economic challenges within a given region. Projects centered around distributed power sources, such as mobile wind turbines, play a pivotal role in broadening the local economic landscape. They introduce supplementary revenue streams and diminish the country's reliance on a solitary energy source, typically fossil fuels, thus enhancing economic resilience and independence. Jonathan Knight is a Cofounder and CEO of Uprise Energy, a San Diego, CA based startup that is building the world's first commercially sized mobile wind turbines. Prior to Uprise, Jonathan was the Senior VP and General Manager of Knight & Carver Yacht Center, an award winning and globally recognized custom yacht builder that also operated the largest marine repair facility on the West Coast of the Americas.

In the latest episode of Boom! It's on the Blockchain, we are joined by Jonathan Knight, CEO of Uprise Energy, joins us to discuss the current difficulties and challenges that Offshore Wind Energy is now facing. Subscribe to Boom! It's on the Blockchain - https://boomitsontheblockchain.com/ **Show Notes** With Vattenfall suspending a massive project in the UK North Sea and Iberdrola-owned Avangrid agreeing to pay roughly $50 million to end a power arrangement for a groundbreaking US venture that it claims is no longer viable, offshore wind has had better months. A examination of Siemens Energy's wind turbine business revealed more serious issues than anticipated that might cost more than 1 billion euros ($1.1 billion). As a result, the company canceled its 2023 profit forecast. An extensive technical study of Siemens Gamesa's installed turbine fleet and product designs, according to Siemens Energy, was started as a result of what it claims to be a marked increase in component failure rates. Since offshore wind's ambitions have grown, it has always signaled good news for the energy transition. This month, the US announced first leasing in the Gulf of Mexico, but storm clouds are now undeniably forming. In this podcast, Jonathan offers his assessment of the market and discusses if the global recession is to blame for some of the unfavorable trends. Guest - Jonathan Knight Jonathan Knight is a Cofounder and CEO of Uprise Energy, a San Diego, CA based startup that is building the world's first commercially sized mobile wind turbines. Prior to Uprise, Jonathan was the Senior VP and General Manager of Knight & Carver Yacht Center, an award winning and globally recognized custom yacht builder that also operated the largest marine repair facility on the West Coast of the Americas. In the late ‘90s, Jonathan leveraged the company's reputation as a leader in composites to begin offering repair services to utility scale wind turbine companies. The success of this venture spun-off its own division - Knight & Carver Wind Group - that evolved from blade repair to new blade manufacturing for the largest OEM's in the space and created a Field Services division with nearly 400 employees that serviced wind farms all around the world. The crowning achievement of this division came when the company teamed up with the US Dept. of Energy and SANDIA Laboratories to develop the STAR Blade®, which is the #1 performing wind turbine blade ever built.

71% of Gen Z and 72% of Millennials say there are financial topics they want trustworthy advice on but aren't sure how to get it. At the same time, the top barrier preventing Americans from seeking financial advice from a professional financial planner is the belief that they don't have enough money to hire one. The good news is that these generations are more open to meet with their financial planners via digital channels. Many Millennials prefer not to meet in person or over the phone. Rather, they prefer communicating through text messages, videos or audio messages. The challenge is that they also want a highly personalized financial plan based on their goals. My guest on the Banking Transformed podcast is Jessica Chen Riolfi, Co-Founder and CEO at Uprise. She shares how Uprise has leveraged data, AI algorithms, and human expertise to provide the potential for optimal financial outcomes.
