Intel Corp fell -0.86% slipped 0.9% after unveiling its next-generation Xeon 6 AI data centre chips at the Computex trade fair in Taipei alongside other leading chipmakers.

The accounting and professional services sector is at the centre of our conversation today.  According to the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority, Singapore projects 6,000 to 7,000 new accounting jobs by 2025, adding on to the current workforce of over 100,000 employees.  Globally, the Big Four accounting firms also went on hiring sprees of their own last year, with the companies already boasting over a million employees as of November 2022.  But why did demand for professional services increase amid the volatile economic climate and as job cuts hit other industries such as investment banking?  Has that boom fizzled yet with consulting firms announcing job cuts in the US this year? If not, what is the way ahead for the industry? I sat down with Shariq Barmaky, CEO, Deloitte Singapore, to find out what Deloitte Singapore is seeing right now in terms of demand and what this means for the firm's growth trajectory. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Latin America is several time zones and an ocean away from Southeast Asia, but there's a lot more to learn from this similarly exciting emerging market than one might expect. In this episode, Yinglan talks about all that and more with none other than the prolific venture capitalist Eric Acher, founder and managing general partner of Brazil's first homegrown venture capital firm monashees. Through monashees, Eric has led investments in many of Latin America's top tech startups, including 99 (LatAm's first unicorn, acquired by Didi for US$1B), Meliuz (first VC-backed tech IPO in Brazil), Rappi, Loft, and Madeira Madeira. He does not only share his experiences leading the development of Latin America's tech ecosystem as a VC, but also the parallels and synergies with Southeast Asia as well. Transcript Timestamps 00:27 Eric introduces himself and monashees; 03:34 Brief history of Latin America's tech ecosystem from the dotcom bubble to today; 07:27 99, Latin America's first venture-backed tech unicorn and monashees' first exit; 10:42 Fintech trends in Latin America and Meliuz, Brazil's first venture-backed tech IPO; 13:22 LatAm companies inspired by China and US models and uniquely LatAm companies; 17:35 Influence of the US and China tech capital on Latin America; 20:38 The entry of Sea (Shopee) into Latin America and synergies between Southeast Asia companies and Latin American companies; 22:55 The two “Indonesias” of Latin America; 26:28 Challenges of being a tech entrepreneur in Latin America; 29:18 Rapid Fire Round; About our guest Eric Acher is the founder and managing general partner of monashees, Brazil's first homegrown venture capital firm. Eric has always believed that the power of entrepreneurship, technology, and venture capital, together, can change Brazil. In 2005, alongside Fabio Igel, he created monashees, the first Brazilian Venture Capital platform inspired by the best funds in Silicon Valley. Today he leads the investment strategy and is responsible for portfolio management. Prior to monashees, he worked with Venture Capital at General Atlantic and with Strategic Consulting at McKinsey. Eric holds an MBA from Kellogg and a degree in Communications from ESPM, with a specialization in Administration from FGV.

Interview with Paul West-Sells, President & CEO of Western Copper and Gold Corp. (NYSE,TSX:WRN) Western Copper & Gold Corporation is a copper-gold developer with a huge asset in the Yukon. 15Moz Au & 6.2bn/lbs Cu. In fact, the Casino copper-gold project is so big, it may have actually restricted the company's optionality. We discuss at length option left to company. West-Sells needs to make a choice: reduce the scale of the project down to something it can more easily handle eg. US$1B heap-leach project, or bring in 1 or 2 strategic partners. This decision will be integral to the upside that Western Copper and Gold shareholders experience. The focus right now is on locating mere high-grade gold zones; the project in its current form a low-grade, bulk-tonnage opportunity. Casino has a hefty US$2Bn CAPEX for an NPV (8%) US$3Bn. Do these numbers look ok to you? Is it a gold company or a copper company?  Company Page: https://www.westerncopperandgold.com/Explore More Here: www.cruxinvestor.com Join our Club's waitlist: www.club.cruxinvestor.com For FREE unbiased investment information, follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook: https://twitter.com/cruxinvestor https://www.linkedin.com/company/crux-investor/ https://www.facebook.com/cruxinvestor If you got value from this interview, please subscribe.

Lumina Gold Corp. was launched several years ago out of mining legend Ross Beaty’s (19.9% ownership) vision to develop a large gold deposit that could be monetized via a sale to a major gold producer during a gold upcycle. The company just released an updated PEA on its world-class, massive 17-million-ounce Cangrejos gold deposit in Ecuador. The PEA demonstrated 366k oz of gold production per year for 25 years with an AISC, net of copper, of only US$604/oz. The project now has a US$1.6 billion NPV5% at US$1,400/oz and US$2.5 billion NPV5% at US$1,680/oz.

Interview with Mark Selby, CEO of Nickel Explorer, Canada Nickel Corp. (TSX-V:CNC)The newest nickel story on the block, with a trebled share price since we last spoke with them around the time of their IPO. Highly impressive. EV/battery metals investors, take note.Mark Selby is a renowned mind in the nickel space; his experience at Inco and the helm of RNC has given him plenty of experience with large nickel projects: in particular, the Dumont Nickel-Cobalt project. Can he develop the Crawford Nickel-VMS Project in a faster, more capital-efficient fashion? The aim is to complete a PEA/scoping study (C$4M) by the end of 2020, with an FS (C$20-30M) following a year later. This is an accelerated monetisation event for nickel investors.Canada Nickel just announced some encouraging drill results with an exciting PGM upside: 2.6g/t. Canada Nickel has managed to create the 11th largest nickel sulphide resource globally in just 6-months for just C$4M, and it is little surprise the market has cottoned on to this value proposition. Selby believes we are on the verge of the start of a new nickel supercycle at the start of this new decade, and he believes having one of the world's few large nickel projects outside of Indonesia will stand Canada Nickel in good stead. The CAPEX is a whopping US$1B+, but he claims the sheer scale of Crawford will be enough to attract a major to take it out, despite it not having the "sexy high grades." In order to hit the upcycle, Selby wants to move fast. Canada Nickel has its skates on and it doesn't appear anything is going to stand in its way.Canada Nickel recently completed a private placement of c. C$4.5M. The original aim was to raise C$2.5M, and now with the share price tripled, Selby feels this has shown the confidence of investors in the EV narrative, even if COVID-19 has distracted. It's incredibly impressive that Canada Nickel's share price is up 5X on its February IPO in a COVID-19 market scenario.What sets Canada Nickel apart from the swathe of other nickel juniors?A.) This is a new nickel sulfide discovery: something of a rarity right now.B.) The potential scale of Crawford: big enough to attract a major, and Selby claims Canada Nickel has only just scratched the surface.C.) The team's experience demonstrated at Dumont has given investors confidence, taking something from resource to fully-permitted project.Selby reveals that from the first two step-out holes from its latest drilling operations have more than doubled the strike length already registered. Exciting. Perhaps most importantly, the first assays from the first drill hole were the highest grade nickel intersection in the main nickel dunite area: 55m at 0.42% nickel, with 0.2g/t palladium+platinum. What will capture the excitement of investors is the prospect of filling the mill with as much high-grade ore as possible, and Selby is clear reticent of this. The third highlight is that Canada Nickel has hit a PGM zone 100m outside of its main nickel resource, and the company has managed to hit it consistently, across several hundred metres down to 500m depth. It has been hit in 2 different spots a whopping 1.2km apart from each other. It is clear that Crawford is shaping up to be a really exciting nickel/PGM project.What has the impact of COVID-19 been like for Canada Nickel, and what will it continue to be? In Ontario, mining was deemed an essential service, so there has been minimal disruption for the company. The assays have slowed down a little, but other than that, Canada Nickel has mitigated the impacts well and has kept employees safe.Selby will put out another resource update in July, then another in October, in addition to a whole series of drilling/mineralogy results. these will be the key derisking events. We have no doubt Selby will continue to hit his deliverables. This could be exciting news for nickel investors. Company Page: https://canadanickel.com/Make smarter investment decisions, subscribe here: https://www.cruxinvestor.comFor FREE unbiased investment information, follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook:https://twitter.com/cruxinvestorhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/crux-investor/https://www.facebook.com/cruxinvestorTake advantage, hear it here first: https://www.youtube.com/CRUXinvestor

Interview with Niël Pretorius, CEO of DRDGOLD Ltd (JSE/NYSE: DRD).We like tailings as an investment category. It's de-risked mining. No geological risks. It's safer. You could argue it's greener. And there are hundreds of millions of tonnes at surface all over the world waiting for value to be extracted.DRDGOLD is a South African NYSE/JSE-listed gold producer and a large player in the recovery of gold from surface tailings. They have a network of assets across South Africa, which they regard as 'unrivaled.' The company was founded in 1895 and pioneered mining methods in South Africa. Pretorius states the company has now come "full-circle," and is focusing exclusively on the recycling and re-mining of tailings, both around the Johannesburg area and now, more recently, the Carletonville area. DRDGOLD attempts to provide a unique combination of processing extremely high volumes of material and nano-extraction methods.DRDGOLD started the year with a share price close to a 5-year low of USD$2.20. However, DRDGOLD has fully capitalised on a good second half of the year for gold, rising to an impressive peak of USD$5.01 at the end of September, before settling down at a still impressive USD$4.60 today. DRDGOLD has a market cap of US$330M.DRDGOLD decided to transition to the tailings space around 10 years ago on recognising their own assets at the time were at the "lower-end" of the quality scale. Their conventional tailings strategy positions the company for stable growth. Pretorious is first keen to talk about the Ergo Project; DRDGOLD obtained Ergo Mining Proprietary Limited outright in 2010. Ergo’s assets include access to 750Mt to 900Mt tonnes of tailings deposited across the western, central and eastern Witwatersrand. The company’s flagship metallurgical plant, Ergo, with a 25.2Mt annual capacity, treats material from a variety of sources. DRDGOLD recently underwent a rationalisation process in order to simplify its structure and form a single retreatment business that is more synergistic with reduced costs.Sibanye-Stilwater, a name of immense pedigree in the mining world, obtained 38.05% of DRDGOLD on 31 July 2018 in exchange for 250m tons of reserves from some of the highest grade mine dumps in Africa. By doubling DRDGOLD's reserves, Sibanye-Stilwater will be looking to DRDGOLD as the key to unlocking the potential of this resource. However, Sibanye-Stilwater has the option of taking their stake to around 51% before February next year: reassuring in the sense that Sibanye-Stilwater wouldn't seek large ownership if DRDGOLD was a Christmas turkey, but will investors worry about a reduction in liquidity? Pretorius is keen to see Sibanye-Stilwater take advantage of this option, to bring an extra US$1B of capital into the company in addition to capitalising on DRDGOLD's stellar operating performance.Pretorius points to DRDGOLD's expertise in gold as an element that sets them apart from the significant tailings competition. In addition, the large size, vast experience and overall quality of the management team when combined with the value system Pretorius is implementing, renders DRDGOLD an intriguing proposition for any prospective investor.DRDGOLD provided a recent three-fold increase on dividends: incredibly generous to shareholders. We were keen to find out if they were being as generous to themselves, but Pretorius is insistent salary has adjusted in line with inflation and the company's bonuses are nothing to write home about. DRDGOLD's remuneration matrix seems interesting, but not necessarily in a positive way. Being rewarded based on what could happen rather than what has happened might be a problematic system for some investors. As Pretorius elaborates, the executives at DRDGOLD are far from underpaid. Maybe investors will let them off with this one given their impressive market performance and dividends.What did you make of Niël Pretorius? Is the Sibanye deal a game changer? Are the dividends getting you excited? Does DRDGOLD have enough going for it to separate it from the swathes of tailings competition? Company page: https://www.drdgold.com/ Make smarter investment decisions, subscribe here: https://www.cruxinvestor.com For FREE unbiased investment information, follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook:https://twitter.com/cruxinvestor https://www.linkedin.com/company/crux-investor/ https://www.facebook.com/cruxinvestor Take advantage, hear it here first: https://www.youtube.com/CRUXinvestor

What a pleasure it is to talk about a monumental Aussie success story. As the founder of Canva.com, Cameron Adams has flown the flag for Aussie entrepreneurs the world over by creating a collaborative online design platform that has literally changed the lives of millions. The basic premise of Canva was to empower people who were not naturally gifted in the area of design to get creative. Canva succeeded in spades and is now worth over $1bn! As well as telling the story of their meteoric rise, Cameron gave us some brilliant insight that all entrerpreneurs could benefit from.   Read on for Cameron’s top tips: **  Understand what your strength is in business. If you are an expert on product/invention then you need to make sure you have someone alongside you who is more focused on process and management. **  Get your onboarding right. Don’t subject your employees to too many ‘sink or swim’ situations. **  When trying to raise investment you should really focus on getting your first investor over the line.

In the early days of Collective Campus, like most new organisations, we kept ourselves afloat by taking part time jobs on the side and working with a number of small clients who paid us just enough to keep the lights on. After building up enough case studies and collateral working with smaller organisations, we worked our way up and eventually hooked our first big A-list client, a global law firm with over 1,200 employees and revenues in excess of US$1B. Long story short, we f*cked up. In this instalment of Fast Fix Friday, I reveal how we screwed up and what we did about it that was a critical juncture in our organisation's 'growing up'.  --- Join the conversation on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/futuresquared/ where you can discuss episodes, request guests, propose questions for forthcoming guests and access exclusive content and special offers!
