Financial Advisors - Values-Based Investing Beyond Standard ESG

Is it possible tocare about sustainability while also benefiting economically from sectors like energy, mining and banking? For the Globe and Mail, I’m looking to talk to financial advisors whoare moving beyond standardized ESG products toward more customized conversations around values. What happens when your clientswant their investment portfolios to reflect their values, but live in a world that rarely offers moral clarity? Does that also mean having to accept lower returns? Please DM me or comment below!

UK Wealth Planners & Investors - Tax-Efficient Investing Strategies

How to invest tax-free... I'm currently working on an article about how to invest tax-efficiently. Here's what I currently do and the tips I'd consider: - Invest mostly through a pension for the tax relief. The standard allowance is up to £60,000 a year (but high earners and some others have a reduced allowance). - Alongside this, invest through a stocks and shares ISA (up to £20,000 a year). You can access it at any age, unlike a pension, but contributions come from post-tax income. - Top up a spouse / partner's pension or ISA to maximise the allowances further. - Consider a junior ISA / junior SIPP for additional allowances, if you have children. But the money belongs to them so you can't reclaim it. - If you come into a large lump sum that you're investing, consider selling some of the investments each tax year to take advantage of the £3,000 capital gains allowance and move them into an ISA. What else am I missing? Wealth planners / investors please share your thoughts as I'm looking for people I can quote. #journorequest#PersonalFinance #Investing #TaxPlanning

Infra Investors & Managers - Oil & Gas Outlook & Manager Trust

CALL FOR SOURCES: Institutional investors and managers in the infrastructure space, I am looking for sources for these two features running in Institutional Investing in Infrastructure (i3). Send me a message if you would like to share your insights! All gassed up Traditional infrastructure verticals such as oil and gas are having a renaissance. Amid drivers such as rising global energy consumption and favorable geopolitics, massive capital is flowing into the sector, and significant mergers and acquisitions are underscoring its appeal. As professionals increasingly adopt an “all of the above” approach to #energysecurity, what is the outlook for the #oilandgas sector, and what are the challenges and opportunities for infrastructure investors? The trust factor The significance of trust in manager/investor relationships in today’s market cannot be overstated. #Investors continue to gravitate toward established managers with recognizable brands, often at the expense of overlooking emerging #managers who may bring innovation and fresh opportunities. What key traits are investors looking for when selecting new managers, and what do they value most in ongoing relationships? What qualities build long-term #confidence, and how does #trust in #partnerships — or lack thereof — translate to business success or failure?

Individual Investors - Cost of Financial Advice & Hidden Fees

BIG NEWS UPDATE: Help Me Choose the Cover for My Next Book! Over the past year, I've been interviewing investors, financial planners, and industry leaders as part of my mission to help consumers make better decisions about financial advice. I'm excited to share that I'm now working on my next book: FeeSmart for the Individual Investor: How Smart Investors Avoid Overpaying for Financial Advice The book is being written for investors who value objective financial advice but want to make sure they are receiving good value for the fees they pay. One of the key ideas behind the book is simple: Most investors are willing to pay for advice. They just don't want to overpay for financial advice. After working with my designer, I've narrowed the cover down to three finalists, and I'd love your help selecting the winner. Which cover do you think best captures the FeeSmart message? 🟢 #1 – The Investigator: Shining a light on the true cost of financial advice. 🟤 #2 – The Financial Detective: Uncovering hidden fees, conflicts, and unnecessary costs. 🔵 #3 – The X-Ray Vision Investor: Looking beyond the marketing and seeing what's really happening behind the scenes. Please vote in the comments: #1, #2, or #3 If you'd like, I'd also appreciate hearing why you made your choice. 🎤 Investor Interview Request: As part of my research, I'm looking to interview individual investors who have thoughts or experiences related to: • The cost of financial advice • Hidden fees and expenses • Advisor value versus advisor cost • Paying for financial advice versus paying for financial products • How investors determine whether they are getting their money's worth If you would be willing to participate in a brief interview - or know someone who might be a good fit - please send me a direct message. Thank you for helping shape this project. Your feedback will help ensure that my FeeSmart book speaks directly to the concerns and questions that investors face when evaluating the cost and value of financial advice.

Houston Employers - Future of Workplace Well-Being

The future of workplace well-being is being written right now—and it looks very different from where we started. We’re seeing a shift: From programs → systems From participation → performance From individual behavior → work design and leadership As Chair of the Houston Business Coalition on Health’s Well-Being Committee, I’m helping shape an upcoming session for the HBCH Annual Forum, https://lnkd.in/gmzNnxp5, on: “The Future of Well-Being in the Workplace” We’re looking to feature employers in the Houston area who are doing something meaningfully different, especially those: ·Using AI or precision approaches to personalize well-being ·Linking well-being to performance outcomes (burnout, retention, productivity) ·Taking systems-level approaches (changing how work actually gets done) ·Investing in manager and leadership capability ·Leveraging well-being as part of recruitment and employer brand ·Advancing measurement beyond participation and ROI We’re less interested in theory—and more interested in what’s actually being implemented and learned in the real world. If you know an organization doing forward-thinking work (or are doing it yourself), I’d love to connect. Drop a comment or message me directly. Let’s elevate where this field is going.

Gen Z 18-27 - Finfluencers' Impact on Investing Decisions

Gen Z is learning money from Instagram reels, YouTube breakdowns, Discord chats, Reddit threads, and Telegram “insider” groups before we approach a bank or a certified financial advisor. But somewhere between “financial education” and “content creation,” the lines are getting blurry. How many creators are genuinely educating? How many are just chasing engagement? And when things crash… who actually takes the hit? I’m currently working on a story for ETBFSI on finfluencers and their impact on Gen Z, and the growing culture of social media-driven financial decisions. I’m looking to speak to people aged 18–27 who have: • invested because of a reel/video/post • joined stock/crypto Telegram or WhatsApp groups • experienced financial FOMO online • lost money after following viral advice • feel social media has become their main source of financial education Or if you have a strong take on whether finfluencers are democratizing finance or just exploiting young investors, I want your raw perspective. 📰 Your insights could be featured in The Economic Times! 📥 DM me or email [email redacted] to chat.

UK Restaurant Operators - Farmed Salmon Sustainability & Menus

The British love affair with fish and chips is a culinary cliché but farmed salmon now outsells cod almost three to one, but can it ever be sustainable at scale? 🐟 Salmon now accounts for 31% of all UK seafood sales by value. Over 92% of it is farmed. It's a remarkable success story for the industry — and one that is attracting increasing scrutiny, not least from the foodservice operators who have built menus around it. I've spent weeks investigating the issue for a new Footprint in Focus article. Here are some of the challenges being addressed: 🐟 Norwegian salmon farms release nutrient waste equivalent to the raw sewage of over 17 million people, according to research published by the Sunstone Institute in May 2026 — contributing to oxygen level decline in the country’s fjords and the destruction of kelp forest ecosystems along its coast. 🐟 A 2024 study in Science Advances suggests conventional fish-in-fish-out calculations may understate wild fish consumption — with corrected ratios for salmon potentially as high as 5.57. 🐟 The ASC — the industry's leading certification body — covers 41% of global farmed salmon production, according to its own 2024 data; independent reviews have raised questions about consistency of enforcement. 🐟 A FAIRR report backed by investors managing $12.7 trillion identifies the industry's dependence on wild-caught fish for feed as a material financial risk, noting no major producer has set targets to reduce it in absolute terms. 🐟 The GSFR | Global Salmon Farming Resistance campaigners who visited Norwegian farms first-hand raise questions about the gap between the industry's technology narrative and conditions on the ground. The industry is investing heavily in responses — from Mowi's AI-driven "4.0" farming strategy to improvements in feed conversion ratios. Whether that investment is moving fast enough is a question operators are increasingly being asked to consider. For those looking at alternatives, chalk stream trout, UK-caught sardines, sprats and flatfish are among the options gaining traction — and operators who have made the switch say the transition has been more straightforward than expected. The full piece is here: https://lnkd.in/eYP9Q2Sr We'll also be continuing the conversation about farmed salmon during a session at #FootprintFestival in September. I'd love to hear from operators navigating this — what's driving decisions on your menus? #farmedsalmon #sustainableseafood #sustainablehospitality Anthony Pender CBII Agustina Copello Catalina Cendoya Hannah Kapff WildFish Chantelle Nicholson

Founders & Investors in Climate Adaptation - Interview Series

A while ago I started The Adapt out of the simple frustration that climate adaptation tech, compared to it's more popular cousin mitigation, is still wholly overlooked as an investable space and actually quite misunderstood. So I'm doing something about it together with Louie Woodall and Climate Proof. The Adapt and Climate Proof are coming together for an interview series and newsletter to give a platform to the founders and investors building in adaptation, the people who don't fit neatly into traditional climate tech boxes or sit cleanly on a VC market map, but who I think are building some of the most category-defining companies out there. This first issue is a short curtain-raiser: my own take on why adaptation is so underrated, the kinds of founders worth backing, and where the real opportunities are hiding. Bigger conversations with founders and investors are coming soon. Have a read, and if you're building or investing in this space, I'd love to hear from you. Link in the comments!

Prevention Founders Nairobi Lagos Kampala - Prevention Economy Book

Two things are true at once. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿-𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵. Every conference, every investor letter, every white paper agrees we should be investing more upstream. The numbers are not in dispute. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗱. Forty years of consensus, and the prevention share of UK and US health spending has barely moved. Meanwhile chronic disease keeps growing as a share of total cost, and the founders building real prevention infrastructure are still operating in the most capital-constrained markets - Nairobi, Lagos, Kampala - where there was never any treatment-first model to retrofit. That gap between consensus and movement is what I've been writing about for the last six months. I'm writing a book about the prevention economy. Not a book about wellness or longevity. A book about the economics - fiscal, political, commercial, of who pays for prevention, who is allowed to provide it, and why a category everyone agrees with structurally has so few defenders inside the rooms where the money actually moves. The book draws on over a decade of building and advising at the edge of health systems, food, and AI-driven personalised health. Healthy Nibbles from kitchen to £10m ARR. Dsions. And now Well Purposed, where I work with HealthTech founders trying to commercialise prevention into systems that have spent forty years optimising for treatment. I've updated my LinkedIn header to reflect that this is now a public commitment. The book is being written through 2026. Publication is targeted for 2027. Two requests, while the structure is still flexible. If you're building prevention infrastructure, particularly in markets where the funding conversation is still treatment-first, I'd like to hear from you. Some of the most useful conversations of the last six months have come from quiet messages. If you know an agent or publisher who is genuinely passionate about prevention, public health, or the structural economics of healthcare - I'd value an introduction. Publication is targeted for 2027; the right editorial partner matters more than the fastest one. --- I'm Sara.

Australian Non-Property Investors - Capital Gains & Negative Gearing

Post budget: how will the proposed tax changes affect you? Hello, ABC News business team here. Post budget, we're examining the real-life impact of the federal government’s key changes to capital gains tax and negative gearing. We are particularly interested in hearing from people who invest outside the property market, including those who hold shares, ETFs, crypto, or other alternative assets, and have question/concerns about how the changes could affect their long-term plans. We’d also like to hear from rentvestors, people who rent where they want to live, while investing elsewhere, and whether the changes could affect the way you build wealth, save for a home, or plan for early retirement.

Energy Investors & Developers - Sri Lanka Battery Storage Opportunity

Is Sri Lanka becoming an overlooked energy investment opportunity in Asia? With rising demand for grid stability, renewable integration, industrial energy resilience, and battery storage, Sri Lanka may be entering an interesting stage for serious energy investors and developers. The market is still early, which means the risks are real but so is the potential upside if projects are structured properly through strong local partnerships, BOI alignment, and bankable long term models. I would like to hear from energy investors, developers, and policy experts: Could Sri Lanka become a strong regional market for battery storage and hybrid energy infrastructure or are there still key barriers that need to be solved first? #SriLanka #EnergyStorage #BESS #RenewableEnergy #EnergyTransition #InfrastructureInvestment #CleanEnergy #BatteryStorage #Solar #EnergyInvesting

Media Planners & Strategists - Media Plan Case Studies

One of the first things I thought I'd do when I joined MediaCat was publish case studies. Not a lot of other publications were doing that for media plans and people in the industry said they wanted it, so it seemed like a simple place to start. Reader: it's been a bloody nightmare. There are lots of reasons why media case studies are harder than creative ones, but I'm still convinced they can be a useful resource. Especially when you have in-depth conversations with the people who make those plans. This latest one (in the comments), about the7stars's media plan for the campaign to get Britons investing, might be the best we've done yet. And I'm grateful to Ben Edwards and Katie Scott for the time and expertise they provided. We would, however, like to do more and get even better at them, if they serve a purpose. So if you're in the industry and you have a view on what makes a good media case study, or if you've done a media plan that you think is clever and effective (and you can talk about it!), please drop me a line.

Experienced Traders & Investors - Trading Psychology & Risk Management

Over the next few months, I want to speak with traders, investors, analysts, and people connected to the stock market ecosystem. Not for content farming. Not for “quick trading tips.” And not for surface-level conversations. I genuinely want to understand how experienced market participants think, operate, make decisions, handle uncertainty, manage risk, build conviction, survive losses, and evolve over time. Every person in the markets has a different story. Some built discipline after major losses. Some developed systems that changed their consistency. Some focus deeply on psychology. Some think in probabilities. Some built businesses around the markets. Some quietly compound wealth for years without ever being visible online. I want to learn from these different perspectives, journeys, frameworks, mistakes, and experiences through real conversations. The purpose behind this initiative is simple: To understand markets beyond charts, news, and social media noise. I’m especially interested in conversations around: - Trading psychology - Risk management - Long-term investing - Market behavior - Decision-making under pressure - Building systems and routines - Lessons from failures and drawdowns - The business side of markets and broking - How experienced people actually survive long-term in the markets This will be a genuine and professional interview-based initiative focused on learning, insight, and meaningful conversations. If you are someone involved in the markets — or know someone whose journey and experience would be valuable to learn from — I’d genuinely appreciate connecting. Feel free to message me or comment below. #traders #stockmarket #interview #highlights

I sat in a room at University of California, Berkeley this weekend where a REAL princess, a Nobel-adjacent scientist, and a former NIA director all agreed on one thing: We've been studying aging wrong. The Berkeley Conference on Aging & Longevity (BerkeleyCAL) was two days of frontier science that genuinely shifted how I think about what we're building at #SuccediaVentures. Let me share the few insights I can't stop thinking about: 1. Aging isn't a disease. It's a misread signal. Dr. Steven Garan's work on phenomics is reframing aging as a communication breakdown — the body sends signals long before disease shows up, but our tools aren't built to listen. This hit me hard. My family has been reading those signals for 268 years through Traditional Chinese Medicine. Tongue diagnosis. Pulse patterns. Constitution mapping. What Garan is proving with data, my grandmother knew by touch. 2. Women's aging is finally getting its own conversation. The menopause panel — led by HRH Princess Dr. Haya Al Saud alongside Dr. Dr. Hanadie Yousef, Dr. Greg Cole, and Dr. Garan — asked a question I've been waiting to hear at a scientific conference: "Why is female menopause rarely talked about at aging conferences?" Exactly. Women don't just age differently. They age on a completely different biological timeline. And the research funding hasn't caught up. 3. The translation gap is where the real capital and impact lives. There's extraordinary science happening. Plasma dilution. Cellular senescence. Age reprogramming. Dr. Michael Conboy, Dr. Michael West, Aubrey de Grey — the research is accelerating faster than ever. 4. The people building the future of longevity are remarkably generous. What surprised me most wasn't the science. It was the openness. Researchers sharing unpublished findings. Investors asking "how can I help?" instead of "what's your traction?" Founders comparing notes instead of guarding playbooks. I walked in as a venture builder. I walked out with potential advisors, collaborators, and at least three founders I want to feature on #TheLegacyCode podcast. 😇 Here's what I'm taking from Berkeley: The future of longevity isn't just biotech. It's the bridge between what science discovers and how real people — especially women — actually access it. That bridge is what we're building at Succedia Ventures. One venture at a time. Starting with Solunar Wellness, where 268 years of TCM meets AI personalization. If you're building in longevity, healthspan, or women's health — or investing in it — I want to hear from you. DM me or comment below. And if you were at BerkeleyCAL this weekend — what was YOUR biggest takeaway? I want to compare notes. 🍀 #BerkeleyCAL #Longevity #Aging #HealthTech #WomensHealth #VentureBuilder #Geroscience #Healthspan #FounderStory You made this happen and meaningful Dr. Steven A.

Personal Finance Experts - Building Financial Safety Nets

thanks to a comment on a friend post on here, I’m putting together a series on personal finance and how people are actually building financial safety nets right now. Not theory, what’s working in practice, in different countries, in this current mess of an economy. I’m looking to speak with financial experts across different markets (personal finance, wealth, investing, etc.) to get real, grounded perspectives. If you’re open to a short chat, drop me a message. If not you, but someone in your network comes to mind, I’d appreciate an intro or a share trying to get a wide range of viewpoints.

Real Estate Investors With Personal Investments - Podcast Guest

I am looking to book more guest directly for my podcast, Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing. I am almost at episode 350, but the podcast guest bookers are becoming so unreliable that I would rather find new guests here on LinkedIn. It's 50% bad bookers and 50% bad guests who hire booking companies and then never respond to them. I would like to cut them out. *I am only interviewing real estate investors with a history of personal investments. If you are investor-adjacent but have never invested, you aren't the right fit for my show. **If you are not reading this yourself, meaning you have someone running your LinkedIn for you, pretending to be you, this is not for you. I am not looking to talk to a shadow version of you to book you. I recently did a similar post and recorded great shows coming out soon with Julie Thomas and Nico Molino. If you respond, be ready to book. There were a couple of people who responded last time, were a good fit, and never booked or responded (this blows my mind). Once we connect, I will send you a booking email with the steps. Fill out the form first, then book via Calendly. If you have guest recommendations, drop them in the comments and tag the guest. If you want to listen to an hour conversation with someone, let them know. #podcasting #podcasthost #realestateinvesting

If this is you, please get in touch with me in the comments!

Canadian Jazz Musicians & Jazz Photographers - Jazz.ca Directory

Working on jazz.ca — looking for Canadian jazz musicians and photographer collaborators I am building jazz.ca as a dedicated home for Canadian jazz. A platform where you can find out what's happening locally, discover musicians worth knowing, and book a band for an event. The musician directory is one of the pieces I'm investing the most time in. Each artist gets their own page with bio, recordings, upcoming shows, and a booking inquiry option. If you know Canadian jazz musicians who'd want to be on something like this, or are one yourself, please reach out. I'm in process of identifying the "pain points" that I can help solve. I'd love to talk to as many musicians as I can in order to get it right and build something valuable. I'm also trying looking for photographers who love jazz and want to shoot shows in exchange for published work in the newsletter and free access to the venues I'm partnering with. The cities I'm starting with are Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver, but I'm open to other markets if there's interest. This is a bootstrapped project. No VC money, no big team, just someone who thinks Canadian jazz deserves a proper home on the internet. If you want to be part of building that, I'd love to hear from you. PS: I am posting this with the permission of the moderator.

Cardiovascular Founders & Investors - Crux of Cardio Podcast Guest

Over the past few months, I’ve had the chance to sit down with some incredible innovators as we’ve really started to build momentum with Crux of Cardio. A huge thank you to the people who have joined me so far: Wayne Paterson (Anteris Technologies), David Israeli (Magenta Medical Ltd.), Carine Schorochoff (Cardiawave), Filip Peters (Acorai), Andreu M. Climent (Corify Care), Martin Herman (Powerful Medical), Oliver Piepenstock (Noah Labs), and Patrick NJ Schnegelsberg (SynCardia Systems, LLC), as well as the patient who shared their experience with total artificial heart technology. I’m genuinely grateful for the time, openness, and insight each person has brought to these conversations. It’s been a privilege to learn directly from the people pushing this space forward. So far, we’ve covered a wide range of topics across cardiovascular. From structural heart and valve innovation, to acute heart failure and mechanical circulatory support. From non-invasive diagnostics and monitoring, to AI in cardiology, electrophysiology, and digital health. We’re now opening the books for the next 10 guests. If you’re building, investing, or operating in cardiovascular and have a perspective worth sharing, I’d love to speak. We’ll also be recording a number of in-person episodes in Dublin for those attending MedTech Strategist Summit on the 28th-30th, so if you’re attending and want to be involved, feel free to reach out.

Investors In Music Infrastructure - Return On Culture And ROI

€55bn is the wrong amount for UMG. Valuations build narratives and this one says: music is a financial extraction game. Maybe it's not about whether €55bn is a good or a bad amount, but what price would reflect music's real value. Music IP as a non-correlated asset class is an established narrative. We need another one, a new one. One that also makes investors enthusiastic about diversifying their portfolio. This is a meta narrative that values artist development, ecosystem health, and community infrastructure alongside actual cash flow predictions. Return on Investment _and_ Return on Culture. I wrote about all this in my latest piece for MUSIC x. If you're working on projects that treat music's companies and infrastructure as worth investing in - venues, platforms, managers, labels, community-owned models - I want to hear from you. We need better stories about what to build with it and what comes out of it.

Leadership Development Practitioners & Executives - Agentic AI Risks

It's a leadership one.To help me with this research, I'm looking to speak with people who are already working on this in practice. Researchers, practitioners, designers, and executives with real observations on: 🧠 Leadership capability and how it's changing in the face of AI ⚙️ Learning design that takes cognitive offloading seriously 🤝 What human and AI collaboration looks like inside real organisations that are investing heavily in this space ⚖️ Where the limits should be, and who gets to draw them If that's you, I'd love 30 minutes of your time. If you know someone I should be talking to, a warm introduction would go a long way #LeadershipDevelopment #AgenticAI #FutureOfWork #LearningDesign
