As CEO and Founder of CEW Communications, she advises entrepreneurs and their businesses where to talk, and about what! But a conference or large event is so much more than just that. How do you prep, what is the best way to get in front of people, and does it really pay to be on stage? As a conference season gets into full swing we break down some of the key questions you might have before packing your bags.</span></p>

<h1><span data-teams="true">The Real Threat to Early Careers is Lack of Cash...</span></h1>
<p>Venture capital has a diversity problem, but talking about it won't fix it. In this episode, David sits down with Anu Adebajo, the new CEO of Newton Venture Program, to explore the real barriers to entry in VC.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Together they discuss why AI isn't the biggest threat to junior roles, the hidden bias of private school education, and why fixing the pipeline requires unlocking new LP capital, not just more panels.</p>

<h1><span data-teams="true"><strong>The 'Agent Boss' Trap: The end of the human handbrake?</strong></span></h1>
<p><span data-teams="true">&nbsp;</span><span data-teams="true">We might soon be &lsquo;agent bosses&rsquo;. But if we only skim-read AI&rsquo;s work, then the human handbrake might already be broken. As we trade deep expertise for surface-level summaries across a broader range of tasks, we might make mistakes that lead to massive reputational failure. On today&rsquo;s show David is in conversation with Oaka Studio co-founder Lucy Bourne, over a pre-conference coffee in Westminster. The key lesson: real depth and considered human validation are your ultimate safeguards.</span></p>

<h1><span data-teams="true">We Meet the Entrepreneur Who is Making You Look Up</span></h1>
<p>Digital experiences today are often isolating, but what if technology could bring us together in the physical world?</p>
<p>In this episode, David speaks to Janet Beck (CEO of Glasseye) about the creation of Outernet, London's massive 23,000-square-foot immersive public space. They explore the convergence of physical and virtual worlds, why her team abandoned traditional 2D video for Unreal Engine during the pandemic, and the deep human need for communal digital experiences.</p>

<h1><span data-teams="true">If You Forget the "Three Ps", You're Making a Cyber Criminals Job Easy</span></h1>
<p>AI and deepfakes are dominating the security conversation, but what is actually causing breaches?</p>
<p>David recently talked to Ed Williams, VP of EMEA Consulting at LevelBlue (a 20-year Pentesting veteran who has hacked everything from submarines to rockets) on the back of a new industry report.</p>
<p>They chat about the need to explore vulnerabilities hidden in complex supply chains, how AI is a double-edged sword, and why the unglamorous "three P's" of security matter more than the latest technology.</p>

<h1>Why the &lsquo;Strava for Women&rsquo; Pivoted to Basic Safety First</h1>
<p class="e-91090-text encore-text-body-medium" data-encore-id="text" data-slate-node="element"><span data-slate-node="text"><span class="sc-ipAaKu hazOil" data-slate-leaf="true"><span data-slate-string="true">Former four-time British Champion pistol shooter Anna Rehfisch realised early in her athletic career that sports programming, nutrition, and coaching were entirely built on male defaults. When she set out to build Joyna (envisioned as the "Strava for women") her initial passion and primary goal was to integrate menstrual cycle analytics into training, helping women optimise their performance and understand periods of high injury risk.</span></span></span></p>
<p class="e-91090-text encore-text-body-medium" data-encore-id="text" data-slate-node="element"><span data-slate-node="text"><span class="sc-ipAaKu hazOil" data-slate-leaf="true"><span data-slate-string="true">However, through customer feedback, Anna discovered a much more urgent demand. A need for basic safety. Too many women avoid exercising outdoors for fear of harassment or worse.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></span></span></p>

Joyna delayed the cycle analytics to prioritise building a first-of-its-kind algorithm that generates well-lit, low-crime, and low-isolation routes from scratch, empowering women to exercise outside with confidence.</span></span></span></p>

<h1><span data-teams="true">Is AI Breaking Recruitment and Harming the Talent Pool?</span></h1>
<p><span data-teams="true">AI is changing how we work, but what is it doing to how we hire? Josh Nesbitt, CTO at Genio, reveals the human cost of the AI-native developer boom. As we gear up for the launch of our documentary looking at the impact the boom in clamour for 'AI skills' is having; we discuss the reality of entry-level tech roles, why 500 CV application pools are breaking recruitment, and his urgent concern for diversity in the AI era. Discover why human interpersonal skills are the ultimate differentiator for tomorrow&rsquo;s engineers.</span></p>

<h1><span data-teams="true">The Launch Decision That Sparked Cease-and-Desist Letters: Regulating a $95B Industry</span></h1>
<p>Medical aesthetics is a $95 billion industry, yet it remains shockingly under-regulated.</p>
<p>Shirin Krall, founder of MARBL, set out to change this by building an AI-enabled marketplace that identifies safe, high-quality clinics. But doing the right thing for consumers sparked unexpected backlash and cease-and-desist letters from the industry.</p>
<p>David Savage explores Shirin's pivot from Revolut, the human impact of opaque tech, and why founders should tackle hard, societal challenges instead of trendy problems.</p>

<h1><span data-teams="true">The Ozempic Gold Rush: Habitual Refused the &ldquo;Easy&rdquo; Revenue"</span></h1>
<p>GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro have changed the world, but they aren't a silver bullet.</p>

<h1>Discover How Dirt is Actually the World&rsquo;s Best Carbon Capture Technology</h1>
<p>We spend billions on climate tech, yet we know more about space than the soil beneath our feet. Robin Saluoks (CEO, eAgronom) reveals why dirt is actually the world's most advanced carbon capture technology, holding more CO2 than all living plants combined. He talks to David about the need to promote "climate pragmatism," why emissions should be treated as waste to be recycled rather than sin, and how data is turning farmers into the ultimate solution for a net-zero future.</p>

<p><span data-sheets-root="1">Buying a house is really, really hard. It took our host David 15 years of renting until he was in a position to get on the career ladder. It's a huge milestone, but it comes with debt, and interest. But does it have to?<br>Former career banker Chris Smith chats to David about his mission to expose how the traditional financial system has failed home ownership, turning the market into a "game of monopoly". He reveals Bloxx, a new financial architecture built on equity and Web3 infrastructure.<br>By connecting institutional capital directly to buyers, Bloxx enables home access with a 1% deposit and monthly payments up to 30% cheaper than a traditional mortgage, making renting a "dead cost" of the past. This is the generational shift required to get 1.2 billion renters into homes. Too good to be true? Surely the banks won't allow it? Listen in to today's interview to find out more!</span></p>

<h1><span data-sheets-root="1">The AI Reality Check: Digital Foundations Still Matter</span></h1>
<p><span data-sheets-root="1">In this candid Tech Talks conversation, fractional and now permanent CIO John Whitlow offers a pragmatic reality check on AI implementation in the business world. While external pressure drives many organizations to "do something AI", John reveals that a significant number, particularly SMEs, are still in the "foothills" of their digital transformation journey, wrestling with foundational issues like poor data quality, where 80% of data can be useless. He argues that AI follows past technology shifts, with many organizations not yet prepared for large-scale implementations, despite the rapid early adoption sparked by tools like ChatGPT.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span data-sheets-root="1"><br>John also unpacks the paradox of a massive jump in demand for AI skills versus a lack of organizational training, emphasizing the need for a joined-up AI strategy across an entire organization, not just IT. He stresses the critical role of leadership in fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&amp;I) for high-performing teams, drawing from his own recruitment practices. The discussion further touches on the ongoing "rebound" in hybrid working models and the commercial realities driving&mdash;or delaying&mdash;sustainability initiatives in businesses. Ultimately, John Whitlow's insights make sense of complex tech realities by revealing the human decisions, trade-offs, and fundamental challenges that truly shape the future of business IT.</span></p>

<h1><span data-sheets-root="1">From 'Tuna Can Period' Scarcity to Hypergrowth: Bloq.It's Miha Jagodic on Building Green Logistics with Pragmatic Strategy</span></h1>
<p><span data-sheets-root="1">Today's guest Miha Jagodic, co-founder and CEO of Bloq.It, recounts the journey of transforming his startup from its challenging "tuna can period" (a time characterized by extremely limited resources and relentless early development efforts) into one of Europe's hottest and fastest-growing companies.<br>Bloq.It provides an end-to-end parcel locker solution, revolutionizing last-mile delivery by offering a convenient and cost-effective alternative to home delivery, which is particularly crucial for the booming e-commerce and second-hand marketplaces like Vinted and eBay. Miha emphasizes that this infrastructure significantly reduces CO2 emissions and courier miles, making the "green tech" aspect a vital and impactful part of their story.<br>Jagodic offers candid reflections on his personal evolution as a founder, moving from an initial "rookie" stage to a CEO leading a team of 350 people, a shift that has seen his role become more managerial yet strategically hands-on. He shares valuable advice for fellow entrepreneurs, stressing the importance of maintaining focus and consistency, directly addressing problems with his "pregnancy test" concept rather than letting them fester, and adopting a pragmatic approach to fundraising. This pragmatic approach means securing investment not out of dire need, but when it is convenient and practical to negotiate favorable terms. The discussion also explores the dynamics of the Portuguese tech ecosystem, the rising prominence and "superior" business practices of Eastern European tech hubs, and the evolving questions faced by hyper-growth startups from investors. So take a deep dive with us into the human decisions and real impact behind scaling a successful tech business, and "Make Tech Make Sense".</span></p>

<h1><span data-sheets-root="1">Revolutionising Indie Film: Christopher Lombardi's Vision for Generative AI in "Princess Halle and the Jester"</span></h1>
<p><span data-sheets-root="1">In this episode, host David Savage chats with Christopher Lombardi, a filmmaker and practicing doctor, about his groundbreaking work on "Princess Halle and the Jester (director's cut)."<br>This film is described as the first fully generative AI-enhanced indie feature film. Lombardi explains how generative AI was leveraged not to create entire narratives from scratch, but to significantly enhance the film's environments, expand its scope, add digital crowds, and make the animation of digital creatures more fluid. This innovative hybrid approach allowed Lombardi to achieve a grander cinematic vision on an independent budget of around $150,000, for a film that would traditionally cost $40-50 million.<br>He discusses the opportunity this technology presents for indie filmmakers to tell bigger stories previously constrained by budget, while emphasising the continued importance of human-driven storytelling and creative input.<br>The director's cut of "Princess Halle and the Jester" is expected to stream on Amazon Prime around October 1st.</span></p>

<p><span data-sheets-root="1">The tech industry often celebrates speed and disruption. But what happens when that pace overlooks the human element? Christina Lewis, a leader who navigated from higher education to scaling giants like Deliveroo and Bolt, shares a deeply personal truth: her initial instinct to change her Midlands accent to "fit in" to the London tech scene.

In this episode, we explore why EQ is now indispensable for everything from retaining female talent and building inclusive cultures to making critical decisions with real-world impact.<br>As AI reshapes our workplaces, Christina argues that our most human skills&mdash;empathy, active listening, and understanding nuance&mdash;are tech's next great advantage.
