In this episode of Investor Connect, Hall welcomes by Laura Hilty, Principal at HealthX Ventures and Chief Strategy Officer at Ignite Data, to discuss her path from Epic to building and launching seven software products at a clinical research startup, supporting acquisitions, and ultimately seeing the business sold to Blackstone for $5B—before moving into early-stage health tech investing. Laura shares how digital health opportunities are shifting as Epic expands into AI, creating new investment risk and pushing startups toward deep niches and tech-enabled services Epic won't replicate, like devices or clinician staffing. We also cover the FDA's push toward real-time clinical trials and questions around participant-level data, plus innovations addressing clinician shortages through automation and peer support, including Sober Sidekick's relapse prediction. Laura closes with advice on proving product-market fit before VC, defining moats in an AI-driven world, and avoiding overly frothy early valuations.

Geetha Dholakia shares how leading corporate venture teams create strategic value by connecting breakthrough startups with the right people, processes, and business priorities inside global enterprises. Drawing on her experience at NASA and TDK Ventures, she discusses the role of deep technical expertise, venture discipline, and organizational alignment in commercializing emerging technologies.

New financial disclosures show President Donald Trump reported more than $2.2 billion in income during 2025, a dramatic increase from the roughly $600 million he reported the previous year. The filings indicate that much of the surge came from cryptocurrency ventures, digital tokens, licensing agreements, and other business interests that expanded after his return to the White House. The disclosures are already fueling renewed debate over presidential ethics, conflicts of interest, and whether a sitting president should be able to profit from private business ventures while serving in office.A federal judge is dealing the Pentagon another legal setback, blocking a policy that required journalists from The New York Times to be escorted by government officials while reporting inside the Pentagon. The ruling found the restriction likely infringed on press freedoms and underscored the constitutional role of an independent press in holding government accountable. We we welcome  presidential historian John Rothmann, host of the podcast ‘Around the Political World With John Rothmann' to talk politics. The conversation continues with the wonderful author Jared Yates Sexton.The Mark Thompson Show 7/1/26Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!

A custom board that ran two thousand dollars five years ago now costs fifteen and ships in two weeks. That collapse is why a hundred teenagers flew to Austin to build in the physical world instead of code in the digital. The organization behind it is Zach Latta's Hack Club, the hackathon was created by seventeen-year-old Meghana Madiraju, and Blake Liberman of 021 Ventures is why it happened in Austin. The conversation ranges from how that collapse happened to what teenagers do with the agency it hands them, and turns sharper on what threatens it.

Electro Ventures has expanded its advanced air mobility portfolio with the acquisition of Vertiport Simulations, marking a significant step toward accelerating the development of eVTOL infrastructure. In this episode, host Jason Pritchard speaks with Electro Ventures' founding partner and innovation director Josh Portlock and Vertiport Simulations founder Joe Mattern about the partnership, the growing importance of simulation technology, and the future of electric aviation. The discussion explores how realistic digital simulations help airports, vertiports, operators and regulators plan charging infrastructure, aircraft operations and site layouts before construction begins. Josh and Joe explain how simulation can reduce costs, improve safety and support smarter investment decisions as the industry moves closer to commercial deployment. They also share insights on industry collaboration, charging standardisation and the growing momentum behind advanced air mobility projects, particularly in North America. Together, they highlight why infrastructure, charging solutions and strategic partnerships will be critical to turning the promise of eVTOL operations into reality.

This week's Office Hours focused on balancing faith, calling, and entrepreneurship. One participant sought guidance about managing an existing tutoring business while considering a new food-related venture. The advice emphasized discerning whether new opportunities align with God's timing and calling, noting that sources of provision should support rather than distract from one's primary purpose, similar to how Apostle Paul's tent-making ministry supported his apostolic work. Suggestions included testing the new business concept through blogging or community-building before making a larger commitment.  Another participant offered a business connection in the childcare industry, while the conversation broadened into the challenges of balancing multiple ventures. Participants discussed the importance of maintaining focus and, when pursuing several projects, shifting from doing all the work personally to leading, managing, and delegating effectively.  A caregiver entrepreneur shared plans to expand services through a nonprofit foundation, receiving encouragement to focus directly on the larger vision rather than investing significant time in smaller preliminary projects. The group also explored the relationship between faith and business success, discussing the differences between worldly systems and kingdom principles, the value of small businesses, and the importance of thinking boldly about God-given visions and opportunities.  The meeting concluded with encouragement to pursue one's calling without limiting ambitions, announcements regarding upcoming ministry activities and Bible study opportunities, and discussion of an upcoming mission trip to South Africa focused on youth evangelism. __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________

Regulatory volatility, scientific‑grade context requirements, and entrenched legacy processes are creating a level of operational complexity in pharma that makes even high‑value AI initiatives difficult to move from concept to production. In this episode, Art Shectman, CEO at Elephant Ventures, examines with host Marilie Fouché how leaders can cut through that complexity by isolating a single, clearly defined workflow slice and rebuilding it for near‑term, dependable deployment rather than long‑range architectural perfection. The discussion highlights how removing outdated process assumptions, selecting an atomic workflow with organizational alignment, and aiming for a contained operational win enable pharma teams to build momentum and scale AI responsibly in highly regulated environments. Learn how consultants are winning business with evidence-based AI ROI and building long-term capabilities instead of chasing short-term gains.

Episode 430 of The VentureFizz Podcast features Phil Beauregard, Managing Partner of Impellent Ventures. I first met Phil back when Boston was going through another massive resurgence of growth following the financial crisis of 2008. It was a special time when local founders and investors banded together to help build and scale the Boston tech ecosystem. It was a movement that is reminiscent of what we are seeing today with the Mass AI Coalition. There was a major buzz in the air back then, and it worked, resulting in the launch of multiple successful companies, including two of Phil's own startups which were both acquired. There is a phrase that Phil commonly uses, which is “why join the Navy when you can be a pirate” and I think it speaks volumes to his mentality and how they deploy capital at Impellent Ventures. They don't just simply follow the herd, especially when it comes to finding elite entrepreneurs. They are entirely location-agnostic and welcome working with exceptional founders who are tackling massive, real-world problems in emerging ecosystems... not just out in Silicon Valley. Impellent Ventures is focused on making seed and pre-seed investments. The firm is led by Phil, David Brown (who previously appeared on Episode 190), and Tariq Trotter, aka Black Thought of The Roots, who serves as a General Partner at the firm. In this episode of our podcast, we cover: * A conversation around building startups outside of San Francisco, and why we are living through the "consumerization of the enterprise" era. * The correlation between smaller fund sizes and investor returns. * Phil's background growing up in New Bedford and studying business at The Wharton School at UPenn, plus how he first caught the entrepreneurial bug and met his co-founder, Matt Grace. * The inside story behind his two exits: Objective Logistics to Carbon Black and Rekindle to HubSpot. * His transition from operator to investor at Impellent Ventures, plus all the details on their unique investment criteria, portfolio company examples, and how Tariq Trotter joined the firm. * His role as an early advisor to multiple successful tech companies, including the critical advice that Toast luckily chose not to take. * How Phil is leveraging AI to build his own Relationship Intelligence System, helping him scale his ability to "pay it forward" to the ecosystem. * Plus, so much more!

In this episode of Medsider Radio, we sat down with Kara Egan, founder and CEO of Teal Health.Teal Health is the company behind the first FDA-authorized at-home cervical cancer screening wand.Before founding Teal, Kara worked in healthcare and software investing at .406 Ventures and Emergence Capital, and held product and marketing roles at Zendesk and Stitch Labs.  In this interview, Kara discusses building support and follow-up into at-home screening, how Teal expanded its comparative clinical study to support broader market adoption, and how healthcare incentives, reimbursement, and institutional trust shape new care models.Before we dive into the discussion, I wanted to mention a few things:First, if you're into learning from medical device founders and CEOs and want to know when new interviews are live, head over to Medsider.com and sign up for our free newsletter.And if you're ready to level up your medtech game, you should check out Medsider Courses — 8-week masterclasses covering topics like fundraising, M&A and exit planning, design and development, clinical and regulatory strategy, and commercialization.These courses, featuring hard-earned lessons from elite medtech CEOs, can be purchased individually or come free with our All-Access Pass.If you'd rather read than listen, here's a link to the full interview with Kara Egan, which includes a link to ScottBot — an AI version of host Scott Nelson trained on every Medsider interview and playbook.

Why This Episode MattersFirgun Ventures launched in late 2025 with a $70M first close anchored by the Qatar Investment Authority and a mandate that doesn't exist anywhere else in the market: lead Series A and B rounds in quantum scale-ups globally. Kris Naudts is a neuroscientist and former Culture Trip founder whose path to quantum runs through a near-fatal medical misdiagnosis. Zeynep Koruturk spent over a decade building the Goldman Sachs Tech Initiative and meeting more than a thousand founders. Both were early angels in what became Quantinuum.If you're trying to understand how quantum companies actually get financed between the lab and the IPO window — or why a specialist fund needed to exist at all — this conversation is one of the clearest views available. It's also a useful frame for founders thinking about what an informed institutional investor actually does in a round.SponsorThis episode is brought to you by Outshift, Cisco's incubation engine.

Roughly 40% of companies in the space need that bridge to unlock larger institutional capital, and almost no one is set up to lead it.Kris on diligence limits: No one person can underwrite the full quantum stack. Firgun pairs a "scientific co-founder" with sub-specialists for each modality, because in quantum "no propositions sound stupid" — and that's exactly the problem.Zeynep on the asymmetric bet: Quantum is one of the few areas where geopolitical reality creates a floor under the downside. The West can't afford to lose, which means funding will be there long enough for the right companies to mature.Kris on willing the timeline: "You cannot will it into being. The space will evolve at the pace it is set to evolve with the capital and the talent in it." A useful corrective for anyone pitching a five-year cure-for-Parkinson's roadmap.Related Episodes

Summer's coming in hot, and so are we. In this episode of Prisoners of Rock and Roll, we're checking out one of the coolest, most American sounds in rock history: surf music.  It's a sound designed to imitate the ocean — dripping wet reverb, a clean glowing tone, and that lightning-fast, machine-gun guitar picking you instantly recognize.  It exploded right in the gap between the first wave of rock ‘n' rollers and the British Invasion, when the music charts had gone soft. But while surf rock as short lived, it wasn't just a blip.  This scene drove major advances in guitar amps, influenced guitar gods from Jimi Hendrix to Eddie Van Halen, and even helped blaze a path toward speed metal. And of course, it gave the world The Beach Boys. This was counterculture. This was pure American teenage freedom in musical form — cars, girls, waves, and rebellion.  In this episode, we're riding the wave: and talking about artists like Dick Dale, The Surfaris, and the Ventures. We'll also touch on how the Pulp Fiction soundtrack helped surf rock get back up on the board as well as some modern bands that are still hanging 10 with the sound.

Tocvan Ventures' Chris Gordon joins MSD to update exploration and development work at the Gran Pilar gold-silver project in Sonora, Mexico. The company is 6,000 meters into a planned 20,000-meter drill program and has identified new mineralized zones away from the main deposit, including El Mesquite and other South Block targets. Tocvan is also advancing its pilot mine, with infrastructure underway, processing equipment expected soon, and first processing targeted for October. Gordon says upcoming catalysts include drilling, pilot production, permitting, and a maiden resource estimate.

Summer's coming in hot, and so are we. In this episode of Prisoners of Rock and Roll, we're checking out one of the coolest, most American sounds in rock history: surf music.  It's a sound designed to imitate the ocean — dripping wet reverb, a clean glowing tone, and that lightning-fast, machine-gun guitar picking you instantly recognize.  It exploded right in the gap between the first wave of rock ‘n' rollers and the British Invasion, when the music charts had gone soft. But while surf rock as short lived, it wasn't just a blip.  This scene drove major advances in guitar amps, influenced guitar gods from Jimi Hendrix to Eddie Van Halen, and even helped blaze a path toward speed metal. And of course, it gave the world The Beach Boys. This was counterculture.
