Immad Akhund is the CEO and co-founder of Mercury, a digital banking platform that's become the go-to financial infrastructure for startups. Before Mercury, Immad spent nearly two decades founding companies, learning the hard way what separates a good idea from a great business. In this episode, Immad shares the hard-earned lessons from launching Mercury as his third startup. He unpacks how he recognized this was the right idea to pursue, what strong product-market fit feels like, and why trying to "iterate" your way to success often leads founders astray. In this episode, we discuss: • Mercury's unusual culture playbook – and why it works • How to hire with intention • The trap of weak product-market fit • Shipping under intense pressure during the SVB crisis • And much more… References: • Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ • Andreessen Horowitz: https://a16z.com/ • Apple: https://www.apple.com/ • Block: https://block.xyz/ • Brex: https://www.brex.com/ • Chime: https://www.chime.com/ • Gusto: https://gusto.com/ • Mercury: https://mercury.com/ • Paul Graham: https://x.com/paulg • Plaid: https://plaid.com/ • Stripe: https://stripe.com/ • SVB (Silicon Valley Bank): https://www.svb.com/ • True Link Financial: https://www.truelinkfinancial.com/ • Varo: https://www.varomoney.com/ • Y Combinator: https://www.ycombinator.com/ Where to find Immad: • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/iakhund/ Where to find Brett: • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brett-berson-9986094/ • Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/brettberson Where to find First Round Capital: • Website: https://firstround.com/ • First Round Review: https://review.firstround.com/ • Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/firstround • YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@FirstRoundCapital • This podcast on all platforms: https://review.firstround.com/podcast Timestamps: (1:07) Hard-won lessons from serial entrepreneurship (2:02) You shouldn't copy-paste advice (6:57) Why personality trumps culture playbooks (8:48) How do you hire for cultural fit?

Remedios Varo, pintora española exiliada en México, transformó su vida en un viaje interior, combinando ciencia, esoterismo, feminismo y humor en una obra simbólica y profundamente introspectiva. Su arte reveló un universo íntimo, místico y narrativo, desafiando normas estéticas y sociales, con una visión radicalmente personal de lo femenino.

O ministro da Agricultura e Pecuária, Carlos Fávaro, participou da 17ª Cúpula dos Chefes de Estado do BRICS, cuja cerimônia de abertura foi conduzida pelo presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Com quase metade da população mundial, um terço das terras agrícolas e mais de um terço da água doce do planeta, os países do BRICS são responsáveis por cerca de 75% da produção agrícola global — consolidando-se como protagonistas na segurança alimentar mundial. 

O ministro da Agricultura e Pecuária, Carlos Fávaro, participou da entrega de mais 125 unidades habitacionais do programa Minha Casa, Minha Vida em Várzea Grande (MT). A ação vai beneficiar cerca de 500 pessoas com moradia digna, segurança e melhores condições de vida. De acordo com o ministro Fávaro, nos últimos dois anos e meio, mais de R$ 4 bilhões foram investidos no programa no estado. Já são 25 mil unidades habitacionais contratadas, muitas delas retomadas após mais de uma década de paralisação. 

Kā sabiedrība izturas pret pacientiem, kuriem ir onkoloģiskas slimības? Vai atbalsts un izpratne ir pietiekama vai tomēr būtiski pietrūkst? Vai un kas būtu jāmaina attieksmē un ko vēl vajadzētu darīt, interesējamies raidījumā Kā labāk dzīvot. Sarunājas Rīgas Stradiņa universitātes (RSU) medicīnas antropologs un politologs Mārtiņš Daugulis un RSU pētījumu datu analītiķe Renāte Grudule. RSU veikts pētījums par to, kā digitālajā vidē cilvēki runā par onkoloģiju. "Pētījumā lūkojāmies uz to, kā Latvijas digitālajā vidē - kas ir sociālie tīkli, arī konvenciālās mājaslapas, viss, kas ir internetā, kā tajā runā par onkoloģiju, par vēzi, par pacientiem. Kas ir tās lielākās šaubas, bažas, trauksmes, kas parādās tieši Latvijas digitālajā vidē," skaidro Mārtiņš Daugulis Šāds pētījums veikts Latvijā, jo ir zinātniski pētījumi pasaulē, kas rāda, ka digitālā vide ievērojami veido sabiedrības priekšstatus. Savukārt sabiedrības priekšstati tieši saistās ar veselības rādītājiem.  "Mēs ieraudzījām saistību gan par attieksmi pret vēzi kā tādu, gan arī caur onkoloģiju attieksmi pret valsti, par lielākajām trauksmēm, kas ir par mūsu veselības sistēmu un tās pārvaldību," norāda Mārtiņš Daugulis. "Droši vien lielākā atziņa, kas būtu, ir tā, ka vēzis Latvijā tiek uztverts un cīņa ar vēzi tiek uztverta kā varoņa ceļš. Tas tiešām prasa milzīgu personīgo ieguldījumu no cilvēka gan no viņa dzīves resursu veidā, gan arī bieži finansiālu resursu ziņā. No vienas puses, mēs ļoti kampaņveidīgi runājam un skatāmies uz to un sabiedrības ir ārkārtīgi solidāra, bet tas notiek kampaņveidīgi un ar tādu lielu uzsvaru, ka tas ir varonis. Ja mēs paraugāmies pēc stāstu veidošanas principiem sabiedrībā, jo mēs visi dzīvojam stāstos un priekšstatos par stāstiem, tur ir liela bīstamība. Tajā brīdī, kad tu esi varoņa ceļā, visa milzīgā slodze tiek uzlikta uz tevi kā uz indivīdu - tev šī cīņa ir jāizcīna, tu nedrīksti normāli ciest vai arī tieši pretēji, tev ir jācieš ļoti eksponēti un jāparāda tas viss sabiedrībai. Visbeidzot, varoņa ceļš, kas ir uzlikts uz pacienta pleciem, īstenībā ļoti ērtā pozīcijā nostāda valsts veselības aprūpes sistēmu un politikas veidotājus. Jo tu tur cīnies, mēs, protams, bāzi nodrošinām tai cīņai; sabiedrība pieslēdzās klāt, kā Sprīdītim palīdzēja arī dažādi no malas, kad viņš savu kauju izcīnīja. Bet beigās tā ir tava lieta.  Šķiet - vai varētu savādāk? Jā. Vēzis un onkoloģiskās saslimšanas, protams, ir smaga un pacientam prasoša saslimšana, bet ar mūsdienīgu pieejamu aprūpi par vēzi sāk runāt aizvien vairāk kā par hronisku slimību. Tajā brīdī, kad mēs viņu laicīgi konstatējam un efektīvi ārstējam, tad mūsdienās rādītāji ir pilnīgi savādāki kā kaut kādos vēsturiskajos priekšstatos. Vēzis nav nāvējoša saslimšana, ja tiek laicīgi konstatēts un adekvāti ārstēts vairums gadījumu. Mums vajadzētu virzīties, lai cik tas izklausītos dīvaini, uz vēža normalizāciju kā tādu, prasot vairāk atbildības tiem, kas varētu mums šos risinājumus dot, - inovatīvas, jaunas zāles, mūsdienīgas terapijas vietas, kur ārstēt, pieejamība. Tas šajā digitālajā telpā atklājas kā virstēmā, bet, protams, arī daudz detalizācijas."

Tässä videossa pureudutaan haitallisiin ajatusmalleihin, uskomuksiin ja mindsetteihin, jotka estävät sinua elämästä täyttä, onnellista ja vapaata elämää. Jos tuntuu siltä, että pyörit samoissa ongelmissa vuodesta toiseen, syy voi löytyä mielen ohjelmoinnista – jos ajattelet samalla lailla saat aina samoja tuloksia.

Em Cáceres, o ministro da Agricultura e Pecuária, Carlos Fávaro, realizou o lançamento do projeto “Rota da Banana: Sustentabilidade na Bananicultura em Mato Grosso”.  A iniciativa é fruto de uma parceria entre o Ministério da Agricultura e Pecuária e a Organização da Sociedade Civil Lírios.

Dublin-based traditional Irish duo Varo (Lucie Azconaga and Consuelo Nerea Breschi) released their second album The World That I Knew on May 9. A collaborative album produced by John 'Spud' Murphy (Lankum), it features some of the most acclaimed names in the Irish folk music world in 2025: Ruth Clinton (Landless, Poor Creature), Cormac Mac Diarmada (Lankum, Poor Creature), Alannah Thornburgh, Inni-K, John Francis Flynn, Anna Mieke, Niamh Bury, Lemoncello, Junior Brother, Ian Lynch (Lankum), Branwen (Rufous Nightjar), and Slow Moving Clouds, among many other musicians too. Five years in the making, The World That I Knew began a month into lockdown. Lucie and Consuelo began working on a meaningful project related to the challenging and historical times the world was experiencing, selecting 10 songs, written between 30 and 300 years ago, that speak powerfully to our present moment.“Through the passage of time, political, social and cultural contexts vary, but the core of people's experiences remain the same,” say Varo. “Themes like loneliness, heartbreak, racism, homesickness, and human connection are universal. These songs still speak truth.” Buy The World That I Knew: https://varodublin.bandcamp.com/

‘Roving Out' is a radio documentary that celebrates the burgeoning musical culture of Ireland, by focusing on musical artists Mohammad Syfkhan, Varo, Qbanaa and Wise Wolf, who have all made Ireland their home. Named after the traditional song, ‘As I Roved Out', it explores how these musicians decided to leave their own countries, some due to war and persecution, others for adventure to seek a new life on this island.All of the artists have managed to find a foothold in the Irish musical community, where they have met like-minded people and managed to combine their own culture with Irish musical forms. The artists all represent different countries including Syria, Italy, France, Cuba and Palestine and the scope of their music takes in many genres from traditional and folk to R n' B, pop and hip hop.Mohammad Syfkhan - a Kurdish/Syrian Singer and Bouzouki player has released his debut album ‘I am Kurdish' on the Leitrim based record label Nyahh records. He has played many gigs around Ireland including a sold-out album launch at the Bello Bar in Dublin. He will be appearing on festival bills throughout the Summer.Varo are singers and fiddle players Lucie Azconaga and Consuelo Nerea Breschi, who met in Dublin in 2015. They have recorded a soon to be released collaboration album featuring Ian Lynch (Lankum), John Francis Flynn, Anna Mieke, Slow Moving Clouds, Inni-K amongst others.Having spent her first year exploring a range of styles and genres, Cuban Irish artist Qbanaa returns in 2025 with the sound that may well come to define her. Qbanaa's forthcoming EP Elisa (her nickname in Cuba) containing snippets of found sounds, street recordings and conversations made in Cuba, poetic bilingual lyricism and immersive soundscapes makes for a collection of beautifully understated original music.Talha AlAli, AKA Talha Wise Wolf, is a Palestinian psychotherapist, activist, hip-hop artist, and human rights defender. Since moving to Ireland in the 2010s, Talha has studied a Masters in Psychology and performed many gigs around the country.The programme investigates the lives of these musicians before they moved to Ireland, their reasons for moving here, and how they have brought their unique musical cultures to boost the thriving music scene here. It celebrates the diversity of Ireland and its music, while also examining difficult subjects such as the circumstances that have caused some of the artists to migrate here, racism they have experienced and difficulties in integrating to Irish society at first.For more, see Newstalk.com.

No segundo dia da Missão da Agropecuária Brasileira em Angola, o ministro da Agricultura e Pecuária, Carlos Fávaro, junto com o secretário de Estado de Agricultura e Pecuária de Angola, Castro Paulino Camarada, visitaram a Companhia de Bioenergia de Angola, a única usina de processamento de cana-de-açúcar do país, localizada em Cacuso, na província de Malanje. A usina é voltada à produção de açúcar cristal branco para o consumo interno e conta com profissionais brasileiros atuando diretamente na operação. O governo angolano tem buscado ampliar parcerias internacionais para fortalecer a produção de alimentos. O ministro Fávaro destacou o compromisso do Brasil em estreitar os laços com Angola e fomentar novas oportunidades de investimento no setor agropecuário. Fávaro também ressaltou o papel estratégico da Embrapa no apoio à transferência de tecnologia e no desenvolvimento da agropecuária local, em alinhamento com a determinação do presidente Lula de fortalecer a cooperação entre os dois países. Ainda na província de Malanje, a comitiva do Ministério da Agricultura e Pecuária realizou uma visita técnica à Fazenda Pipe, implantada há cerca de 15 anos. Com mais de 8 mil hectares, a propriedade é voltada à produção de milho, soja e feijão. Com altitude de 1100 metros e clima tropical, a região de Malanje possui solo fértil, de terra vermelha, e muitas similaridades com as características brasileiras. Composta por cerca de 30 empresários do setor, a missão segue com programação intensa em Angola, realizando visitas técnicas para troca de conhecimento sobre o sistema produtivo de alimentos, fibras e energias renováveis. 

O ministro da Agricultura e Pecuária, Carlos Fávaro, lidera uma comitiva brasileira em missão oficial a Angola, cumprindo uma série de agendas institucionais e visitas técnicas a propriedades rurais no país africano. Em Luanda, capital angolana, Fávaro participou de reunião na sede do Ministério da Agricultura e Florestas da República de Angola com autoridades do governo local e empresários do setor. O encontro teve como foco avaliar o ambiente de negócios para a produção agropecuária, identificar possibilidades de investimento brasileiro e ampliar a cooperação técnica voltada à segurança alimentar. O ministro ressaltou que é uma orientação do presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva restabelecer e fortalecer as relações diplomáticas com países parceiros, criando caminhos para o desenvolvimento conjunto e a geração de oportunidades comerciais. Durante o encontro, Fávaro ressaltou que a Embrapa impulsionará o desenvolvimento agrícola angolano, oferecendo tecnologias e estudos técnicos.  O ministro também ressaltou a importância de ter bancos angolanos credenciados a bancos brasileiros que tem programas de incentivos a equipamentos e insumos produzidos no Brasil. A missão inclui ainda visitas técnicas a áreas de produção de grãos e pecuária de corte, além da Companhia de Bioenergia de Angola e do Polo Agroindustrial de Capanda. De acordo com o ministro Fávaro, a iniciativa busca estreitar o relacionamento com o setor agropecuário local e ampliar o conhecimento sobre a realidade produtiva do país africano. Com essa agenda, o Mapa reforça o compromisso do Brasil em promover o desenvolvimento agropecuário sustentável por meio da cooperação internacional e do fortalecimento das parcerias globais. 

Os ministros da Agricultura e Pecuária, Carlos Fávaro, da Fazenda, Fernando Haddad, e do Meio Ambiente e Mudança do Clima, Marina Silva, participaram do lançamento do segundo leilão do Eco Invest e do Programa Caminho Verde Brasil, em São Paulo. O objetivo do leilão é mobilizar recursos para recuperar 1 milhão de hectares de terras degradadas, no âmbito do Programa Caminho Verde Brasil, abrangendo os biomas da Mata Atlântica, Cerrado, Caatinga, Pampa e Pantanal. Durante o evento, o ministro da Agricultura e Pecuária, Carlos Fávaro, destacou o compromisso do Governo Federal com o crescimento sustentável. O Programa Caminho Verde Brasil propõe recuperar 40 milhões de hectares de áreas degradadas em dez anos, para uso exclusivo na agricultura sustentável. A iniciativa é coordenada pelo Ministério da Agricultura e Pecuária, em parceria com outros ministérios, instituições financeiras, representantes do setor agropecuário e autarquias federais. Atualmente, cerca de 280 milhões de hectares no Brasil são destinados à agropecuária, sendo 165 milhões de hectares de pastagens. Desses, 82 milhões estão degradados. A meta do governo é recuperar 40 milhões de hectares de pastagens nos próximos dez anos. Para as próximas etapas, o Ministério da Agricultura busca atrair recursos de investidores internacionais e de países comprometidos com o desenvolvimento sustentável. 

O ministro da Agricultura e Pecuária, Carlos Fávaro, participou nesta semana da Reunião Ministerial do Grupo de Trabalho de Agricultura do BRICS, realizada no Palácio do Itamaraty, em Brasília. O encontro reuniu representantes dos países-membros para debater desafios globais do setor e reforçar a cooperação internacional na área agropecuária. A reunião ministerial aconteceu após a segunda rodada de encontros presenciais do grupo técnico, coordenada pelo Ministério da Agricultura e Pecuária. Entre os temas discutidos estão o combate à fome, a degradação do solo, a certificação eletrônica e a sustentabilidade na produção de alimentos. O ministro Fávaro ressaltou que é com grande satisfação que o Brasil participa desta importante Reunião Ministerial de Agricultura dos BRICS. Fávaro também ressaltou a relevância crescente do BRICS no cenário geopolítico e estratégico mundial Outro ponto destacado por Fávaro foi a potência agroambiental brasileira, seu papel como um dos principais exportadores do mundo e como a Embrapa vem  desenvolvendo soluções que aumentam a produtividade sem ampliar a área agrícola. Sobre o futuro, o ministro enfatizou que um dos compromissos mais urgentes do bloco é garantir investimentos em projetos de conservação do solo e recuperação de áreas degradadas, essenciais para a produção sustentável. Fávaro defendeu ainda a intensificação da cooperação entre os países do BRICS, especialmente nas áreas de segurança alimentar, sanidade vegetal e saúde animal. O BRICS é formado atualmente por Brasil, Rússia, Índia, China, África do Sul, Indonésia, Egito, Etiópia, Irã, Arábia Saudita e Emirados Árabes Unidos. O grupo busca fortalecer parcerias em comércio, desenvolvimento sustentável e combate à pobreza.  O BRICS 2025 no Brasil tem como tema central “Cooperando para um mundo inclusivo e sustentável”. A agricultura ocupa lugar de destaque, promovendo sistemas alimentares mais resilientes e soluções que beneficiem especialmente os países em desenvolvimento.

Welcome back to the Fintech Takes podcast. I'm Alex Johnson, and as always, I'm joined by my partner-in-crime, Jason Mikula. Today, we're unpacking the chaos around regulatory shifts, fintech's shifting landscape, and the not-so-rosy reality of BNPL. First up, we're diving into the latest news coming from D.C. The Trump administration is considering consolidating bank supervision under the OCC, with reports of employee transfers from the FDIC and CFPB in the works. The possible gutting of agencies and the shifting regulatory approach isn't exactly a surprise, but we're seeing this transition go from theoretical to action. What's at stake for banks and fintechs? Next, we dive into Varo's challenges as the first fintech to snag a de novo bank charter during fintech 1.0's big promises. Once a leader, Varo is now facing financial losses and a shrinking customer base, while rivals like Chime scale quickly. Varo's struggles highlight the tension between building responsible products for underserved communities and navigating complex regulatory oversight. Its de novo charter has tied its hands, making it harder to compete in a fast-moving market where flexibility is key. The January CFPB report on Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) brings eye-opening insights. Despite its claim to help those without credit, 45% of BNPL loans go to deep subprime borrowers, not credit newbies. The data also shows users stacking loans across providers, with rising credit card default rates. The takeaway: BNPL's shiny promises don't align with its impact. Plus, we're keeping the BNPL convo going with a rapid-fire round of updates. Finally, we wrap up with a few rants you won't want to miss—like the transparency crisis in financial services and crypto. Powell's vague responses to Synapse's failures highlight a deeper issue: accountability. Meanwhile, crypto's obsession with meme coins is sinking to new lows. Where have all serious players gone? We're diving in. 00:04:50 - Washingtonian Recap 00:26:41 - Varo's Charter Conundrum 00:40:59 - BNPL News, Grab Bag Style 01:07:45 - Can't Let It Go Sign up for Alex's Fintech Takes newsletter for the latest insightful analysis on fintech trends, along with a heaping pile of pop culture references and copious footnotes.

Mayo harpist Alannah Thornburgh talks about her debut album Shapeshifter, released February 12. She is inspired by the traditions of fairy folklore and mythology from rural Ireland. The project began when Alannah was commissioned to compose a piece for the Linenhall Arts Centre's New Music in Mayo series, curated by traditional musician Emer Mayock. With the support of the Arts Council's Next Generation Award, Alannah conducted interviews with nearly 50 historians, storytellers, and locals, collecting stories and experiences that inform her music. These conversations are woven throughout the album.

Gazeteciler Cengiz Erdinç ve Mehveş Evin, “Türkiye'nin Uyuşturucu Gerçeği” serisinin ikinci bölümüyle karşınızda... Kısa Dalga, “Türkiye'nin Uyuşturucu Gerçeği” dosyasını açıyor. Türkiyeli yeni nesil suç çeteleri, kartelleşme sürecinde… Varoşlardaki isyandan çıkıp uyuşturucu ve silah kaçakçılığıyla işlerini büyüten bu çetelerin en belirgin özellikleri; kural tanımamaları ve ölçülerinin olmaması. Bir polis memurunu da hedefine alabilir, Balkan mafyasının liderini de. Kürtçe rap dinleyebilir ama kurt işareti de yapabilir. Çukur dizisinde tasvir edilen dünyaya çok benzeyen bu yeni nesil çetelerin ortaya çıkışında neler rol oynadı? Organize suçun patlamasında 90'lardaki köy boşaltmaların, gayrı nizami harbın etkisi ne? Sedat Peker'in ima ettiği, Zeta Karteli gibi “polis ve asker kökenli” yapılar artık Türkiye için de bir tehdit mi? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

פרק 15# רמידיוס וארו עם אסתר שניידר. רמידיוס וארו - אמנית סוריאליסטית שגרמה לטבע דומם לרחף ולהניע דמויות במסלולי אור שבתוך עולם חשוך.... חיה חיים סוערים על רקע מלחמת האזרחים בספרד ומלחמת העולם השניה, ולכשהגיעה לנחלה במקסיקו- יצרה גוף עבודות מרשים במהלך עשר שנים ומתה בפתאומיות מהתקף לב. פתחנו את הפרק עם קלפים של אסתר שניידר האורחת שבחרה בה. יחד אנו מגלות בפרק הזה, את הקשר בין סימטריה לחיים ומוות, את מחוזות הילדוּת כמצע להתפתחות דימויים ואת המסכים של עולם הגלגלים. רמדיוס וארו, בת מזל קשת עם שמש מול פלוטו, עם ירח מול שבתאי ואופק אחד שמביט בעיניים גדולות וחושניות על הדברים בעולמות העליונים והתחתונים.

As a woman entrepreneur, I get the grind—we're always pushing ourselves to excel, right?  But to be honest, society has set some pretty high expectations for women and it's easy to fall into the trap of tying our self-worth to our achievements. If we're not constantly succeeding, we start to doubt ourselves.  One minute, you're juggling everything just fine. The next, you're exhausted, stressed, and questioning everything. It's not just about being tired; it's a deeper, more pervasive sense of fatigue. In this podcast episode, Ilona and I dive into the struggle of balancing self-care and business while tackling self-worth issues and battling burnout head-on. Tune in to hear our stories, struggles, and tips on how we find the right balance. We also talked about the following: The repeating cycle of self-doubt (and practical ways on how you can beat it) How to develop habits that work for you and your body Ditching the comparison game Knowing what really drives you versus what society thinks you should Why celebrating every win (even if it's small) is a must “You have to really remind yourself what your values are, what your lifestyle is, and try to block out the noise of comparison from other people.” ilona Váró If this episode inspired you in some way, take a screenshot of you listening on your device and post it to your Instagram Stories, and tag me, @renaefieck.
