Zu Beginn der Episode erklären uns Alex und David ihre Rollen bei McFadyen und erläutern die Beweggründe hinter der Podcast-Einführung. Sie teilen mit, warum der Fokus des Podcasts auf der Plattform-Ökonomie, und insbesondere auf Europa liegt und welches Ziel sie verfolgen: mehr Menschen dazu zu ermutigen, in Plattform Geschäftsmodellen erfolgreich zu sein. Sie wollen anregen, wie in einer Disco die Berührungsängste mit der Komplexität des Themas zu überwinden und gemeinsam Mehrwert zu stiften und erfolgreich zu sein.

Der Podcast verspricht Vielfalt. Die Hosts verraten, über welche Themen sie sprechen werden. Ein Schwerpunkt liegt darauf, wie Unternehmen mit den Veränderungen durch Plattformen und Ökosysteme umgehen, insbesondere in Bezug auf Geschäftsmodelle und Operating Modelle, Branchenkonvergenz und die Rolle der Führungsteams.

Zum Schluss geben die beiden einen Ausblick auf zukünftige Gäste und nennen bereits zwei konkrete Namen für die nächsten Episoden. Diese Gäste werden über ihre Erfahrungen im Aufbau und der Entwicklung von Marktplätzen und Ökosystemen sprechen. Ein Gast kommt aus einem DAX Konzern, der andere Gast von einem führenden Mittelstands-Unternehmen in seinem Bereich.

“Discover” Strategie, Geschäftsmodelle, Tech und Menschen hinter Plattform Ökosystemen

We have surrounded our planet Earth with spacecraft that make our daily lives easier to navigate, help us tackle the impact of climate change, as well as answer vital scientific questions. Today we are launching 10 times more than we did 10 years ago and even if there is a lot of space in space, it is all becoming a bit cluttered.

Right now we are only talking about satellites and space stations, but with more and more missions to the Moon underway – estimated at 400 by 2030, we will become increasingly challenged as a society to rethink our footprint in space and switch to a circular mindset. On earth, electronic waste is foreseen to reach 75 million tons by 2030, but what about the trash that is currently floating above our heads?

For this third episode of our mini-series, we have asked Sabrina Andiappane from Clearspace and Bernd Weiss from Lulea University of Technology to clear the air for us and explain what kind of solutions they envision for a circular future of space.

Space and Circularity

Alex and Peter discuss the need for Europe to catch up in platform creation and the challenges and opportunities in the space. They also touch on the evolving landscape of platforms, including the emergence of second-generation platforms and the application of platform strategy to create circular platforms. Additionally, they highlight the role of technology, such as AI and low-code solutions, in shaping the future of platforms.

Alex and Peter also talk about the monetization potential of platforms, including the various income streams and growth opportunities they offer. They aim to target mid-sized companies, hidden champions, and enterprise-level organizations, with a particular interest in showcasing how consortia can effectively collaborate to create successful platforms.

Peter has a ton of experience in the platform space. He co-chairs the MIT Platform Strategy Summit which puts him in connection and dialogue with some of the leading platform scholars in the world. He joined the advisory board of Marketplace Risk and is also a partner and co-chair of the network summit which is based in Barcelona and focused on community building around platforms and platform professionals in Europe.

Why Europe Is Far Behind In Platform Creation

PlanetBreakdown: Episode 1 "Seamless Australia"

rhεûmα - Circularity (2025) (single) 

rhεûmα unveils "Circularity," a cosmic journey through progressive metal

Progressive metal band rhεûmα announces the release of their new single and music video "Circularity," available now on all major streaming platforms and YouTube.

"Circularity" explores humanity's connection to the cosmos through intricate arrangements and strong dynamics, blending powerful riffs with metaphysical depth.
The track showcases rhεûmα's signature sound - a fusion of progressive metal with atmospheric passages that delve deep into themes of existence and renewal.
Inspired by Carl Sagan's groundbreaking series "Cosmos" and ancient philosophical concepts and symbols like the ouroboros, the song weaves themes of cosmic recycling and eternal return into a compelling musical narrative.

The accompanying music video takes viewers on an epic visual journey through time and space - from cosmic creation and the emergence of life on Earth, through human evolution and civilization, to the ultimate fate of our planet, in a grand cycle of existence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F9y56eVFso

"Circularity" is now streaming on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and other major platforms.

About rhεûmα (rhεûmα):

Hailing from the Azores Islands, Portugal, rhεûmα crafts a distinctive blend of progressive and alternative metal. The band draws inspiration from Ancient Greek humoral theory and philosophy, creating an innovative fusion of complex rhythms, atmospheric soundscapes, and profound thematic exploration.

rhεûmα - Circularity (2025) (single)

It’s very often that one might feel stuck both in regards to their artistic practice and daily life. My task was quite straightforward: combine available surrounding sounds and places with the feeling of going in circles, being stuck. Therefore, the soundscape has a circular/loop structure, and the content of the book–although not necessarily linear– hints at a journey.

Walking in Circles

Memory is a subjective recollection of the past, each time used, information being modified. An echo is a distortion of a sound that travels and bounces off surfaces, but can it be seen as a blurry image of the past?

The two-part project, sound piece and publication, began by speculating on the linearity and circularity of time, how it affects places, and how memory works.

Small villages like Șona, from Brașov county, Romania, are places where time seems to flow more slowly. Villagers live their lives according to a solar rhythm, to the length of the day, to nature and its seasons. Their rare extraordinary happenings are remembered through stories passed on orally. By researching the local myths, legends, and conspiracy theories, the collection came out rather fragmentary, blurred by the locals’ more present-day, recent history and media-affected interest.

To clarify the vague and overlapping view, I’ve used text-to-image Artificial Intelligence as a consulting of a collective memory, trained on billions of images. The more probable the information, the better the results. Like in a game of hot and cold, I feed the AI with the fragments and images taken in Șona, going through art history as the scenes dictated, modifying the description after each result, and getting slowly to the bigger picture.

These filtered-out echoes are singing a legend beyond the known past, about destiny, the passage of time, the circularity of history, and human nature, bringing me back to the intent of my research.

If the sound piece is a boat trip that ends where it starts and vice versa, hearing along distant bits and parts of more clear and more distorted information, the book focuses on these details, filtering and recomposing them.

Echoes, Spells and Disenchantment

In dieser Folge des Murakamy Podcasts spricht Marco mit Jan-Gisbert Schultze, Gründer von Acton Capital, über ein Thema, das weit über Venture Capital hinausgeht: regenerative Landwirtschaft und die Bedeutung der Bodenqualität. Jan-Gisbert erzählt, wie das Buch “Das Omnivoren-Dilemma” seinen Blick auf Landwirtschaft und Gesundheit verändert hat. Es zeigt auf, wie die heutige Landwirtschaft nicht der einzige, noch der beste Weg ist – und wie regenerative Ansätze den Boden revitalisieren können, was sich direkt auf die Qualität unserer Lebensmittel und unsere Gesundheit auswirkt.

Mit Marco spricht Jan-Gisbert über seinen Versuch, eine ganze Region auf regenerative Landwirtschaft umzustellen und welche Veränderungen dies für die lokale Wirtschaft mit sich bringt. Besonders spannend ist die Frage, welche Lehren sich aus der Natur für unser Wirtschaften im Allgemeinen ziehen lassen. Zudem beleuchten die beiden, welche Rolle VCs spielen können und wie sie durch die Steuerung ihrer Portfoliounternehmen einen Einfluss auf den Wandel hin zu mehr Nachhaltigkeit und Regeneration nehmen können.

Sounds like a Book is a book-making and self-publishing platform that addresses those interested in the book as a medium of artistic expression. As the chosen name suggests, SLB focuses on the visual transmission, conversion, and representation of the sound.

Bjorn was born seven minutes before the Chernobyl disaster and believes the universe sent him to counterbalance radioactive linearity. His first two words were “Reuse” and “Recycled.”

With his debut album :"The Pyramido" Bjorn aims to spread circular musical waves and help de-fossilize the world.

In his first song, To all Circularity Heroes—originally written to explain to his young son what Daddy does in one of the biggest corporation —Bjorn shares his daily job. Fully devoted to the circular cause, he composts all his PowerPoint presentations, rides only the circular subway line, and organizes loop walks where participants must walk in perfectly symmetrical spirals until they’ve fully closed the loop.

To All Circularity Heroes.
