Podcasts about Value chain

This special wrap-up episode of Interchange Recharged takes listeners on a fast tour of the entire carbon capture value chain, from industrial emitters and LNG developers to UK transport and storage pioneers. Host Sylvia Leyva Martinez, Research Director at Wood Mackenzie, brings together three leaders shaping how CCUS moves from theory to reality.First, James Lopez, Subsurface CO₂ Storage Advisor at CEMEX, explains why cement's process emissions make it one of the hardest sectors to decarbonise and why storage certainty is now the key enabler for investment. He shares how CEMEX is identifying and evaluating CO₂ storage hubs across global sites, and why capture without a permitted storage solution is a business risk few emitters can take. “CCUS doesn't work if you only have the C,” he says, “you need the full chain.”Next, Glenn Wilson, Chief Financial Officer at Coastal Bend LNG, discusses how LNG economics and carbon capture can work hand in hand. Designed from day one as a low-carbon project, Coastal Bend LNG is integrating capture across both pre-treatment and post-combustion stages, aiming for near-zero emissions. Glenn explains how 45Q tax credits and the sale of verified environmental attributes create a dual-revenue model, and why tokenising the carbon intensity of each LNG cargo could redefine transparency in global energy trade. “We're not just reducing emissions,” he says, “we're creating a new market for verified carbon value.”Finally, Nick Terrell, Executive Director at Carbon Catalyst, joins from the UK to reveal how depleted gas fields are being repurposed into next-generation carbon storage sites. Following the country's first offshore CO₂ injection test, he shares how reusing North Sea infrastructure is cutting costs, driving bankability, and opening the door to cross-border storage for European emitters. As policy alignment grows between the UK and EU, Terrell argues that liberalisation and private capital will be the next accelerators. “Once we have more FIDs,” he says, “finance, technology, and data will do the rest.”From the cement kiln to the seabed, this episode captures the energy and optimism emerging across the CCUS ecosystem - a clear sign that carbon capture is moving from cautious planning to confident execution.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

From cloud kitchens to global shipping, technology has always redrawn the map of business. Now, it's AI's turn. Join Lukas Egger as he unpacks how AI is creating new boundaries today by collapsing the costs of work at critical handoffs and interfaces. He reveals that the biggest impact isn't about making things faster, but about fundamentally changing what is possible. Discover how understanding this core principle can help you see opportunities that your competitors are missing. Tune in for actionable steps to build a more defensible, future-ready business.

This episode captures Walid Mehanna's perspective on how Merck KGaA has approached enterprise AI adoption through a federated strategy that prioritizes people over technology. The core message is that successful AI implementation requires building organizational capability across three dimensions - people, processes, and technology - rather than seeking a single transformative solution. Walid argues that companies must establish a broad foundation of AI literacy (exemplified by their internal MyGPT tool reaching 25,000 users) before pursuing specialized applications, while maintaining human accountability to prevent complacency. He emphasizes that AI works best when it's treated as an experimental, iterative capability distributed across the organization rather than controlled centrally, with success depending on persistence through the inevitable J-curve of initial productivity drops. The conversation reveals how a large multinational navigates the practical realities of AI deployment - from managing regulatory complexity across different geographies to making pragmatic build-versus-buy decisions - while maintaining focus on the fundamental principle that AI should augment human expertise rather than replace human judgment and responsibility. (0:00) Intro(0:29) How AI is Used at Merck(2:18) AI Applications Across the Value Chain(4:31) Challenges and Risks of AI Implementation(5:35) Federated Approach to AI Prioritization(6:44) Future AI Use Cases and Data Challenges(10:38) Building and Partnering for AI Solutions(15:11) AI in Drug Discovery and R&D(26:47) Quickfire Out-Of-Pocket: https://www.outofpocket.health/

Bienvenue sur la Radio Circulab (ex Activer l'Economie Circulaire) C'est un anniversaire qui a "complètement dépassé" nos attentes ! Nous vous invitions à découvrir les coulisses de la célébration des 10 ans de la Circulab Community, un événement qui a rassemblé plus de 200 personnes et marqué une étape clé pour l'économie circulaire.Nous sommes revenus sur une décennie d'évolution :Un succès inattendu : Initialement, la communauté n'avait pas d'objectifs quantitatifs ambitieux. C'est la demande spontanée des participants aux premières démos publiques de 2015 qui a incité à sa création. Les créateurs ont été "complètement dépassés" par son internationalisation rapide et le nombre de personnes qui ont rejoint le réseau, parfois sans même qu'ils sachent comment ils avaient pris connaissance de leur travail.Un modèle hybride et unique : Loin des statuts classiques, la Circulab Community a développé un modèle "plus coopératif possible" inspiré de la franchise, mais reformulé à sa sauce. Ce statut particulier a même intrigué les premiers membres qui ne comprenaient pas son fonctionnement au début.Les clés de la réussite : Découvrez comment l'approche open source et l'exigence de qualité dans la formation et le déploiement de la méthode ont permis à la communauté de gagner en notoriété et de créer de nouveaux outils comme le Value Chain ou le Business Residence Game.Des projets collectifs emblématiques : La force de cette communauté réside dans sa capacité à mener des projets d'envergure pour des clients prestigieux, tels que la Ville de Paris, Coral Guardian ou l'Olympique de Marseille, des initiatives qui n'auraient jamais pu être réalisées en solo.Un retour aux sources symbolique : L'événement des 10 ans s'est déroulé au Social Bar, permettant de "boucler la boucle" avec les débuts de Circulab, où les premières démos de la méthode avaient eu lieu dans l'ancien local voisin.Vous comprendrez comment la Circulab Community est passée d'une entité centrée sur les outils à un véritable réseau de "catalyseurs de l'économie circulaire", avec une représentativité renforcée sur tout le territoire français. Notre ambition pour l'avenir : "étendre la communauté et partager ses expertises un peu au-delà".Pour aller plus loin : Baladez-vous sur notre site internet (tout neuf) ; Téléchargez nos outils sur la Circulab Academy ; Inscrivez-vous à notre newsletter ; Envoyez-nous vos retours ou suggestions sur Linkedin : Justine Laurent et Brieuc Saffré.

In this episode, we'll dive deeper into the changes and challenges brought about by AI, particularly since the November 22 moment with ChatGPT. We'll explore how AI has impacted industrial systems engineering, data quality, and the utilization of massive amounts of data in factories and supply chains.Introduction Let's start with the big picture. AI has been around for a while, but the renewed focus on data quality and the challenges of handling vast amounts of data have become more prominent. The November 22 moment with ChatGPT triggered a significant shift in how we approach AI and data.Importance of Discovery One of the key aspects of an industrial-grade data fabric is the importance of discovery. Access to data, metadata, and data models is crucial for understanding and comprehending the information. This enables tooling, whether AI-assisted or analytics environments, to work effectively.Normalization is another critical factor. Ensuring common data formats at the consumption layer, such as everything in degrees Fahrenheit, is essential for consuming, discovering, and transforming data. Multistream contextualization also plays a significant role in this process.Data Storage and Manipulation Where does the data live? This is a separate issue that needs to be addressed. Whether the data is dumped into a data lake or handled ad hoc, the ability to manipulate data at cloud scale has seen significant changes. The technical obstacles are dropping, making it easier to bridge into source systems using well-described interfaces.Overall, the changes brought about by AI have had a tremendous impact on industrial systems engineering. The focus on interoperability, open systems, and solving large-scale problems has become more prominent. The technical obstacles are getting easier to overcome, and the opportunities for using AI and data fabrics are exciting.Let's continue the conversation and explore more about industrial-grade data fabrics and their role in the era of AI.Would you like to be a guest on our growing podcast?If you have an intriguing, thought provoking topic you'd like to discuss on our podcast, please contact our host Colin Masson at cmasson@arcweb.com or Our Producer Tom CabotView all the episodes here: https://thedigitaltransformationpodcast.buzzsprout.com

In this episode, hosts John Reade and Joe Cavatoni from the World Gold Council interview Sakhila Mirza, Deputy Chief Executive and General Counsel at the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) to learn more about the LBMA's role in the global gold and precious metals industries.  Sakhila provides a detailed overview of the LBMA's role as a membership organisation for participants in the Loco London Precious Metals Market. She outlines their standards including the Good Delivery List, the Global Precious Metals Code and the Responsible Gold Guidance.  The conversation then moves on to how technology and the GBI programme can support greater transparency across the gold supply chain. Finally, Sakhila, John and Joe dive into the LBMA's sustainability and responsible sourcing programme, which includes a discussion on the Gold Principles Group and pan-industry initiatives, International Bullion Centres, and artisanal and small-scale gold mining.     [1.20] Who is the LBMA and what is their role in the global precious metals industry? [5.03] LBMA Membership requirements and the Global Precious Metals Code [9.46] Sakhila provides an overview of the Gold Bar Integrity Programme [16:24] LBMA's gold industry-focused initiatives [24:08] How the LBMA is addressing challenges in the artisanal and small-scale gold mining sector  [27:39] Sakhila shares a fun fact about gold    Additional Resources: www.gold.org https://www.lbma.org.uk/ Gold Bar Integrity    Notable Quotes: “We are a membership-based organisation, but we have the ability to self-regulate, so what that means is if a refiner does not meet that criteria, does not meet those standardised rules that we have for every refiner, the LBMA has enforcement powers, which means that that refiner is removed from the Good Delivery List.” -Sakhila Mirza “We have a Global Precious Metals Code. This was something that the LBMA held the pen on when it came to drafting the Global Precious Metals Code, and is enforced by the LBMA and every member must attest to the code… From the LBMA perspective, it's a code that applies to the entire industry, whether you're a member of the LBMA or not.” -Sakhila Mirza “We announced earlier this year, in March of 2024, that the LBMA will be launching the LBMA GBI database.” -Sakhila Mirza “As you said, 20% of the overall supply is ASM (artisanal small-scale mining). If you take that 20%, less than 2% is going through the LBMA refiners. Where is the rest going?” -Sakhila Mirza About World Gold Council We are a membership organisation that champions the role gold plays as a strategic asset, shaping the future of a responsible and accessible gold supply chain.

Dr. Anastasia Volkova is the CEO and Co-founder of Regrow Ag, a software company specializing in scalable decarbonization solutions for agriculture, using satellite imagery and proprietary biogeochemical modeling to measure and reduce scope 3 emissions on farms. Operating globally with over 100 customers—including General Mills, Nestle, Kellogg and Unilever—and monitoring 10%+ of the world's arable land, Regrow aims to be a one-stop shop for the agriculture industry's climate needs. Anastasia has a PhD in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Sydney. She is also a member of the Forbes Technology Council, a TEDx speaker, and the recipient of multiple awards and honors, including MIT's Innovators Under 35, BBC's 100 Women 2020, UBS Global Visionary, and Bloomberg's New Economy Catalyst. In this episode, we discuss: ●     How Anastasia went from a PhD in Aerospace Engineering to focusing on agriculture ●     Why some widespread agricultural practices need updating ●     How to create a more resilient food system Key Takeaways: ●     The Compounding Effects of Our Actions: Actions don't exist in a vacuum—they compound over time, for better or worse. Agriculture provides a stark example of this.. Conventional practices that release significant greenhouse gases year after year contribute to climate change, creating extreme and unpredictable weather that destabilizes food production. This instability carries immense direct and indirect costs for society. The more we continue down this path, the worse it will become. On the flip side, investing in regenerative practices—while requiring upfront investments—yields compounding positive effects over time. These practices not only help mitigate climate change but also build a resilient food system that can sustain future generations. The key is zooming out to understand how the long-term impacts of today's choices ripple far into the future. ●     The Beauty of an Unscripted Journey: The most fascinating career paths are rarely linear. Anastasia's academic and professional journey is a testament to the beauty of following your interests, even when the destination isn't clear. Sometimes, this meandering path leads to creating something entirely new—something that didn't exist before. Letting go of the notion that your career should follow someone else's trajectory is liberating. Each of us is meant to carve out our own way, and as we move forward the uniqueness of our path becomes more evident. So, embrace the unexpected turns and trust that your journey will lead down the road that was meant for you. ●     Transforming Tradition Through Innovation: Rice paddy cultivation has long been a symbol of timeless tradition—a picturesque image etched into collective memory. Yet, even centuries-old practices aren't immune to the transformative power of innovation. It's wild to think that after so many generations, there could be a better way to cultivate rice, a way that challenges the norm and improves upon it. That's the magic of innovation: it takes what seems fixed and familiar and reimagines it, creating something better. Whether it's rice paddies or any other deeply ingrained system, innovation reminds us that progress is always possible, and the status quo is just a starting point.

In this episode of Sustainability Leaders recorded on location at Climate Week NYC, Jonathan Hackett, Managing Director and Head, Sustainable Finance at BMO, sat down with Justine Fisher, CFO at Svante, to discuss the state of carbon solutions, regulations, and carbon credit markets.

Send me a messageIn this episode, which is generously sponsored by Component Sense, I sit down with Joanne Flinn, Chair of the ESG Institute, to unpack what it really means to push sustainability forward in business, far beyond the usual carbon targets. Joanne shares her personal journey to becoming an advocate for sustainable transformation, influenced by her father's work in agricultural economics and her early exposure to global sustainability issues.We dig into the critical work the ESG Institute is doing to guide companies on their ESG journeys, especially around complex challenges like value chain sustainability and the need for clarity in multi-stakeholder decision-making. Joanne explains the Institute's “Sustainability Readiness Profiles,” a practical tool to help companies identify their ESG maturity and shape their approach accordingly – whether they're observers, pledgers, compliers, or transformers.We also discuss the mindset shifts needed to make sustainability integral to business strategies: moving from short-term gains to long-term resilience and embracing multi-dimensional goals beyond simple profit metrics. Joanne even makes an unexpected (but spot-on) connection between ESG in business and the evolving safety standards in rugby.Tune in to learn why approaching sustainability as a “game of lifting standards” can drive real change, and what steps leaders can take now to create a thriving, resilient future.Elevate your brand with the ‘Sustainable Supply Chain' podcast, the voice of supply chain sustainability.Last year, this podcast's episodes were downloaded over 113,000 times by senior supply chain executives around the world.Become a sponsor.

Dino Scheidt is an AI Engineer, former CTO and Founder who works with Fortune 50s, Start-Ups, and Governments on Data Intelligence and AI Architectures. In this conversation, we explore the evolving landscape of AI with a particular focus on generative AI and its applications. Dino criticizes the concept of 'AI strategies,' arguing that AI should be seen as a tool rather than a strategy. Despite his initial skepticism towards generative AI, Dino acknowledges its potential, especially in transforming traditional value chains through AI-enabled communications. We also delve into the challenges and opportunities posed by non-deterministic systems, the concept of Data P&L, and the complexity of integrating generative AI into existing business operations. Dino wraps up the discussion by emphasizing the importance of lateral thinking and digital representation of business processes to leverage future AI innovations effectively.

A conversation with Scott Poynton, founder of the Forest Trust, now known as the Earthworm Foundation, about supply chains, environmental regeneration and addressing environmental scandals from the forests of rural Australia to his groundbreaking work with major corporations like Nestlé on no-deforestation commitments. Scott's experiences in Vietnam's Mekong Delta, Tasmania, and reforestation projects reveal the intricate balance between economic growth and environmental conservation. Do you remember a few years ago Greenpeace released a video with a kitkat chocolate with an orangutan' finger in it, which very clearly made the statement that much of the palm oil the Nestlé owned company were coming from deforested plots in Indonesia which were home to the orangutans? And before that, the scandal on teak garden furniture, which in the nineties suddenly a lot of European household had teak garden furniture on their balconies or on their terraces? A lot of that wood came from illegal logging in Cambodja smuggled over the borders by ex-RedKer and sold to furniture companies sin Vietnam.What do you do as a company when you are hit by a supply chain scandal like this? In both of these cases, the companies called Scott to help fix it. Not their public image, but the actual supply chain. Get traceability in, no deforestation rules and monitoring, social programmes, etc. Learn from the fascinating journey of this forester born in Australia who founded the Forest Trust. It's regeneration, both socially, economically, and environmentally at scale, and learn why he is so excited about biochar.---------------------------------------------------Join our Gumroad community, discover the tiers and benefits on www.gumroad.com/investinginregenag. Support our work:Share itGive a 5-star ratingBuy us a coffee… or a meal! www.Ko-fi.com/regenerativeagriculture----------------------------------------------------More about this episode on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/scott-poynton.Find our video course on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/course.----------------------------------------------------The above references an opinion and is for information and educational purposes only.
