The outcomes will be different depending on your approach." – Rene Federico[00:33:06] "Consumers don't shop your org chart, they shop your brand. Business models don't shop—customers do." – Rene Federico[00:45:31] "When you get someone to buy something, that is an exertion of power. It means somewhere in their conscience, you've been able to affect a choice. We're in a moment where the customer is the hero of the story." – Rene FedericoIn-Show Mentions:"That's So Primark" campaignHerald Square flagship opening Spring 2026Associated Links:Check out Future Commerce on YouTubeCheck out Future Commerce+ for exclusive content and save on merch and printSubscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce worldListen to our other episodes of Future CommerceHave any questions or comments about the show?

In this episode, we dive into the pharmaceutical industry's research and drug development side and the real threat that today’s access and affordability challenges and policies pose to innovation. While innovation often starts in universities with government support, biotech, and pharma companies take on the tough, costly job of clinical trials, development, and approval of new drugs. Investment dollars are limited, only the most promising projects get funded, with an expectation there will be a return. However, our current drug payment process and policies like the IRA have added new considerations for investors, risking fewer new drugs being developed. Without changes, patients could face the closing of our nation's medicine cabinet, with fewer new treatments available. This would be an outcome that would be catastrophic for all of us.

At BlackRock, Jeff manages product, sales, and marketing for the Megatrend and International franchises.  In this episode, Jeff talks with Rusty and Robyn about megatrend investing strategy, the general guidelines for incorporating megatrends into a portfolio, and the top three investment themes that investors need to keep an eye on in 2022.

Despite the great strides companies have made to mitigate the risks associated with security breaches, including putting insurance in place to cover those risks, cyber criminals have remained two steps ahead, finding new and innovative ways to override state-of-the-art security and cause destruction. In today's episode, Lynda, joined by Mary J. Hildebrand CIPP/US/E, Founder and Chair of Lowenstein's Privacy & Cybersecurity practice, and David Anderson CIPP/US, Partner, US Head of Cyber at McGill and Partners, discuss what regulators are doing to incentivize companies to avoid security breaches and promptly report breach events, the current state of play regarding what fines and penalties are being imposed on companies, and the forecast of whether insurers will continue to provide coverage for those fines and penalties with a growing risk profile. Speakers: Lynda A. Bennett, Partner and Chair, Insurance Recovery Mary J. Hildebrand CIPP/US/E, Partner and Chair, Privacy & Cybersecurity David Anderson CIPP/US, Partner, US Head of Cyber at McGill and Partners
