Why are opportunities still being overlooked by investors?

I talk to Roxana Sanguinetti, founding partner of Alma Angels, about women, investment, bias and the opportunities investors may be missing.

We explore whether investing in women is simply about fairness, or whether it is also an innovation issue.

Roxana shares her thinking on the “double arbitrage”, why women-led businesses can be overlooked, and what this means for investors looking for the next big opportunities.

What if fear isn't the enemy?

In this episode, I speak with Dr. Alix Willemez about fear, resilience and adaptation. After surviving a plane crash at 19, Alix developed a very different perspective on fear- not simply as something to overcome, but something that can make us sharper. We explore what nature can teach us about resilience, why diversity and connections matter, and what this means for building organisations that can adapt.

Jane Marie Chen's work was recognised by President Obama and supported by Beyoncé. Her startup, Embrace, has now helped more than one million premature babies.

Embrace developed a radically low-cost infant warmer for places where traditional incubators aren't practical. It cost around 1% of a traditional incubator and could work without constant electricity.

Jane had always been a high achiever. She went to Harvard and Stanford, and built her career around achieving ambitious goals. But when Embrace ran out of money and nearly shut down, she found herself at rock bottom. Exhausted, burned out and feeling that she had failed herself, her investors, her family and the babies she had devoted years to helping.

What happens when failing at something makes you feel like you've failed as a person?

This is one of the questions I explored with Jane in my latest episode.
