    EP 166 - Karl Nehammer: Why Europe Fails to Scale – And How the EIB Plans to Fix It

    Europe leads the world in discovery — yet too often, its breakthroughs never become global companies. Billions in research funding turn into patents, not products. While others build empires from ideas, Europe risks becoming the world’s laboratory — brilliant, but broke. That’s the paradox at the heart of this conversation. In this episode, Karl Nehammer, Vice-President of the European Investment Bank (EIB) and former Chancellor of Austria, joins Christian Soschner live at BIO-Europe 2025 to discuss how Europe can turn its world-class science into world-class companies. He shares how leadership forged in crisis can rebuild confidence, competitiveness, and growth — and why every crisis hides an opportunity to start thinking differently. 💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode 1️⃣ Why Europe’s innovation system struggles to turn discovery into scale 2️⃣ How the EIB can bridge the gap between science, capital, and market impact 3️⃣ Lessons from leading through COVID-19, the energy crisis, and diplomatic challenges 4️⃣ Why changing culture and regulation is key to Europe’s competitiveness 5️⃣ The mindset Europe needs to move from surviving to building 💬 Quotes from Karl Nehammer (00:03:33) “Every crisis is also maybe a chance — you learn a lot, decide quickly, and think in totally new ways.” (00:07:00) “We have the knowledge now of what we must change — it’s a window of opportunity.” (00:20:03) “Empower yourself. Don’t wait for another person — you can do it yourself.” 🧭 Timestamps (00:00:00) Opening – Why Europe Struggles to Scale (00:03:33) Karl Nehammer – Leadership Lessons from Crisis (00:06:21) Europe’s Innovation Challenge – Science vs. Commercialization (00:09:17) Life-Science Resilience – Lessons from COVID-19 (00:12:52) A Realistic Vision for Europe’s Future (00:17:05) Inside the European Investment Bank – Building Bridges Between Capital and Innovation (00:18:59) Empowering Founders – Karl Nehammer’s Message to Europe’s Builders (00:20:14) Closing – Optimism, Collaboration, and Confidence 🎙️ Beginner’s Mind Top 10% globally.

    EP 165 – Jason Foster: 153 Rejections Later — What Every Founder Must Learn About Resilience

    Most founders dream of raising millions. Few survive the 153 “no’s” it takes to get there. Behind every biotech breakthrough lies exhaustion — late-night calls, failed rounds, and investors who walk away at the finish line. What separates the ones who make it isn’t luck or timing — it’s resilience built into process. In this episode, Jason Foster, CEO of Ori Biotech, shares how he transformed relentless rejection into a billion-dollar trajectory. From rebuilding cell-therapy manufacturing to leading global teams through economic storms, Jason reveals how founders can systematize grit, master storytelling, and survive when everything seems to fall apart. You’ll learn how to navigate fundraising winters, why leadership begins with self-care, and how to build companies that endure long after the hype fades.  If you’ve ever doubted your path as a builder, this conversation will remind you that resilience is not a trait — it’s a practice. 💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode 1️⃣ The real reason most founders fail long before capital runs out 2️⃣ How to turn rejection into momentum using process and habit 3️⃣ Why storytelling is the most underrated skill in biotech leadership 4️⃣ How resilience and self-care directly drive performance and valuation 5️⃣ The mindset that separates enduring companies from short-term success 👤 About Jason Foster Jason Foster is the CEO of Ori Biotech, a leading innovator transforming cell and gene therapy manufacturing. With 20+ years in global health, he has raised over $140M, led companies through IPO-level growth, and serves as a mentor and investor to emerging founders in life sciences. His mission: make advanced therapies accessible to every patient, everywhere. 💬 Quotes That Might Change How You Think (00:14:09) “There are cures for cancer today, but patients can’t reach them — access must change.”  (00:37:22) “The science is extraordinary — but if we can’t make it at scale, it means nothing.”  (01:22:17) “Purpose, not money, drives talent to transform lives through innovation.”  (01:46:17) “Fundraising is a war of attrition — constant rejection tests your resilience more than your idea.”  (02:02:16) “You only have to get up one more time than you’re knocked down.”  🧭 Timestamps to Explore (00:02:00) Embracing Hard Challenges — How Biotech Founders Build Resilience That Lasts (00:13:40) The Unacceptable Truth: Cures Exist, Yet Patients Still Can’t Access Them (00:26:23) Navigating Cultures — What European and American Biotech Leaders Can Learn From Each Other (00:32:52) Why Great Science Isn’t Enough Without Commercial Viability (00:39:19) Revolutionizing Cell Therapy Manufacturing — The Seven-Day Bottleneck Explained (00:50:11) Automation and Digitization — Unlocking Scalable Patient Access in Cell and Gene Therapy (01:09:30) Rethinking Capacity Utilization — Making Regional Biotech Manufacturing Centers Work (01:14:27) Mass Personalization — The Future Delivery Model for Advanced Therapies (01:23:00) Purpose-Driven Talent — The Secret to Retaining Top Biotech Performers (01:32:18) Fundraising as a War of Attrition — Building Vision Alignment With Investors (01:39:14) Building Investor Trust Before You Need It — A Founder’s Long Game (01:47:23) Resilience Transforms Rejection Into Triumph — Lessons From 153 Investor “No’s” 🎙️ Beginner’s Mind Top 10% globally.

    Marc Penkala | Why Being Wrong is the Secret to Venture Success (SPARK20 – 139)

    How do you succeed in a business where being wrong is the norm? Marc Penkala has lived both sides of the table: as an entrepreneur who built, sold, and failed with companies—and now as a venture capitalist running his own fund. What makes his story different is the radical honesty about what actually drives success in venture: failure, timing, and taking risks that look stupid at first. This Spark20 episode distills Marc’s hard-earned lessons into a 20-minute masterclass for founders, investors, and policymakers navigating uncertainty. What you’ll learn Why timing, not brilliance, often decides who wins.Why failure is the ultimate credibility builder for investors.How European founders hold themselves back—and what mindset shift is overdue.Why down markets are the best time to build companies.How the “stupidest ideas” sometimes create the biggest outliers.Timestamps & Quotes 📌 (00:00:38) Entrepreneur → VC “My route into venture capital felt like a paid executive MBA… I built, I sold, I bankrupted, and then I joined the so-called evil side to truly understand investors.” 📌 (00:03:31) Failure as Fuel “Failure is the bigger success… many of my failures turned into the best things that ever happened.” 📌 (00:05:32) Credibility Through Scars “If I had never built a company, how could I authentically tell a founder I can help them?” 📌 (00:07:29) Wrong = Right in Venture “As a VC, you’re more often wrong than right. And strangely, the more you’re wrong, the higher your actual output.” 📌 (00:10:38) When Tourists Arrive, Leave “The moment angels and LPs with no clue flood the market, you literally have to stop investing. That’s when the tourists arrive.” 📌 (00:12:22) Outliers Make the Portfolio “One angel had ten bets—two of them gorillas and Tier. Didn’t matter what else he had—the outliers alone defined him.” 📌 (00:13:02) Europe vs. US Mindset “US startups think in billions. European startups think in millions. That mentality shift is everything.” 📌 (00:15:02) Stupid Ideas Win “If everyone agrees it’s a great deal, don’t do it. The best investments sound like the stupidest idea at first.” 📌 (00:17:42) Why Down Markets Build Giants “In down markets, founders get humble, go back to fundamentals, and focus on capital efficiency. That’s why the best companies come from downturns.” This isn’t just a highlight reel—it’s a reminder that in venture capital and entrepreneurship, the rules are upside down. Being wrong isn’t a weakness—it’s proof you’re taking the swings that matter. 👉 Listen now, and share it with someone who needs to think bigger. 🎙️ With over 200 interviews, panels, and livestreams, Beginner’s Mind ranks in the Top 10% globally—and is recognized as the leading deep tech podcast for Send us a text Support the show Join the Podcast Newsletter: Link

    EP 162 - Alex Oppenheimer: The Secret Investors Use Before Writing the First Check

    Here’s the harsh truth: If your business model can’t survive a spreadsheet, it won’t survive the market.

    EP 161 - Enis Hulli: VC Secrets Exposed: Why Only US-Based Startups Dominate (and How to Beat the Odds)

    Why do Europe’s brightest founders still feel forced to leave for Silicon Valley—no matter how much money or talent we pour into the region?  Every year, ambitious startups across Europe and CEE struggle to scale—not for lack of ideas, but because of invisible barriers that keep global success out of reach. Is it really just about capital—or is there a deeper mindset and playbook that only a handful of founders ever discover? In this episode, venture insider Enis Hulli (General Partner at e2vc, investor in 40+ startups, 3 unicorns, and builder of bridges from Istanbul to the Bay) pulls back the curtain on the real reasons US-based startups keep winning—and how founders from Turkey, Eastern Europe, and beyond can finally turn the tables. 🎧 Watch now to learn: 1️⃣ The “power law” that decides which founders build generational companies—and why most never see it coming 2️⃣ Why relationships, not pitch decks, determine who actually gets funded—and how to break through if you don’t have the right connections 3️⃣ How emotional resilience and founder mindset shape the fate of entire regions—not just individuals 4️⃣ The little-known risks of playing the European “safe game”—and how to engineer luck for outsized results 5️⃣ Tactical lessons on team building, brand, and why your anti-portfolio (the deals you missed) might matter even more than your winners 👤 About Enis Hulli Enis is General Partner at e2vc, a leading early-stage venture fund focused on scaling tech startups from Emerging Europe to global markets.
