35:36

In the latest episode of The Innovators & Investors Podcast, host Kristian Marquez sits down with Sam Huang, Principal at BMW iVentures, for a candid conversation to explore the dynamic intersection of venture capital, artificial intelligence, robotics, and manufacturing innovation. Sam shares BMW iVentures’ investment thesis, focusing on Series A and B startups across the US, Europe, and Israel, with a strong emphasis on AI-driven SaaS, automation, and onshoring trends driven by labor shortages and supply chain disruptions. Listeners gain valuable perspectives on the evolving venture diligence process, the importance of product-market fit, and how higher ARR benchmarks reflect both market maturity and macroeconomic factors like rising interest rates. Sam also candidly discusses his unconventional career path—from a Stanford history PhD program to law school and ultimately venture capital—highlighting how diverse experiences enhance investment acumen. The conversation delves into the benefits of corporate venture capital, especially BMW’s hands-on support and networking advantages for portfolio companies. Additionally, Sam reveals how AI is integrated internally at BMW iVentures to optimize workflow and decision-making. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the future of innovation, investment strategy, and the transformative impact of AI and robotics on global industries.

2 years ago56:13

56:13

On this, our last ever Irregular B*tches (massive sad face!), we talk to Andrea Mclean, who was arguably one of the very first women in the public eye to start talking about the menopause 4 years ago on Loose Women and has paved the way for the rest of us! She is warm, funny and insightful about her journey and has some great nuggets of advice for all of us midlife ladies navigating the menopause. This episode was actually recorded way back in September, but a series of boring life issues means we're only just uploading it now! Apologies for the wait! Louise and I would like to thank you all for your loyalty over these last four years: we have enjoyed making our little poddy so much but cannot compete with the big-hitters in the pocastiverse and time and money have made it impossible to continue. We would like to thank all our incredible guests since we started and to Factory Originals for getting us off the ground in the beginning: their help was invaluable. Big thanks also to my husband, Andy who has been so very patient producing and editing for us in his (very limited!) spare time. Please continue to enjoy listening to all of our back catalogue here on Acast and our DMs are ALWAYS open to any midlfe women who are struggling with this seismic shift in our lives. We love you all so much! Final words, as ever... STAY COOL B*TCHES! All our love, always, Louise and Sarah xxxx Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.…

In 2021 the Irregular Bitches were asked to do a live podcast recording at McFly In The Park on The Go Fishing Stage. Up to now, these recordings were thought lost (they were just on Sarah's computer) but now saved from deletion, recovered and dusted off, they are here for you now. It's just like uncovering rare Beatles archives, right? We thought the message that Lizi Jackson-Barrett shares is sooooooo important and ALWAYS relevant, we even got her on a regular IB show, that it's always worth a re-share. So here it is. Enjoy!

This episode we hang out with our gloriously talented Irregular B*tches poet Donna Ashworth. She has the ability to get into our brains and write out our every thought. Our core question is how the bloody hell does she do it? And what is her process for writing poetry that sums up exactly how we feel? How her overthinking and emotional intelligence lead her to her talent and now her job as a poet. How she looks after her mental health having opened herself up to us in her work. And how she wants her work to help us accept who we are. Oh and there is a little bonus bit of bants at the end from all of us. We hope you like it! Donna's 'To the Women', 'The Right Words', 'I Wish I Knew' and many more incredible publications can be found on Amazon, her website and all good book shops. So why not buy a few copies, like we do, and pop them in your presents cupboard. https://donnaashworth.com/ Thanks for listening x Irregular Bitches is an Irregular Bitches Production Big thanks to Andy Merry for producing us - we couldn't do it without you!

What a powerhouse Ellie Waters is! We learned loads about how to take charge of ourselves and the support that we need. Ellie was diagnosed with an extremely aggressive form of cancer aged 14 and her treatment led her to be forced into early menopause. In this episode, we hear not only about her experience but maybe more importantly how proactive she has been in dealing with early menopause.
