    Investing in the Future: AI, Founders, and Values That Scale

    AI is attracting a massive amount of attention right now, but the more interesting question is where capital is actually being deployed and why certain industries continue to be overlooked despite their scale. There are sectors like supply chain, logistics, and industrial infrastructure that represent trillions in global spend, yet they receive a fraction of venture investment. That disconnect creates a different kind of opportunity, one that requires a deeper understanding of both technology and the systems it’s being applied to. I’ve got Sonali Vijayavargiya joining me, Founder and Managing Director of Augment Ventures, where she focuses on backing founders using AI to transform these critical, real-world industries. We’ll be going into: 1. Funding: Early-stage investing and founder evaluation 2. Faith: Leadership philosophy and values in investing 3. Future Tech: AI adoption in critical industries This discussion gets into how investors are thinking about founder quality right now, where AI is actually being implemented beyond surface-level use cases, and how personal conviction and values shape decision-making when capital is involved. If you’re building, investing, or trying to understand where AI is creating long-term value, this will be a useful one to sit in on. If you’re around, jump in live.

    Building Nexia AI, Human Purpose, and Enterprise AI Governance

    Somewhere along the way, building faster started to feel like building better. More tools. More dashboards. More updates. But clarity didn’t scale with it. That’s the tension. And now AI is entering that same environment. On this episode of The David Daily, I’m sitting down with Nita Laad, Founder and CEO of Nexia AI, who’s building systems designed to bring structure back into how product teams operate. We’re getting into: 1. Funding: Building and Funding Nexia AI 2. Faith: Human Purpose in the Age of AI 3. Future Tech: Balancing Enterprise Governance and AI Autonomy We get into how decisions actually get made inside fast-moving teams, what changes when AI starts shaping those decisions, and why human judgment still matters in all of it. The goal goes beyond speed. It’s about building something that still holds together when things get complex. Come join us live. Would love to have you there.

    Funding the Future of Infant Care & Continuous Health Data

    The earliest days of life carry enormous responsibility. The signals are small. The stakes are not. Today I’m going live with Shaker Rawan to talk about how product leadership, capital allocation, and technology are shaping the next chapter of infant care. Shaker brings over 15 years of data-driven product leadership across health, banking, and consumer technology. He has led large teams, driven innovation, and built systems designed to turn complex data into meaningful outcomes. Our discussion will center around three themes: Funding the Future of Infant Care Faith - Stewardship of the Most Vulnerable Future Tech - From Snapshot Care to Continuous Intelligence Beyond The Bag We’ll explore how investment is fueling innovation in digital health, what stewardship looks like when building for newborns and families, and how continuous, data-driven intelligence can replace fragmented, episodic care models. As healthcare evolves and more responsibility shifts into the home, the way we design systems matters. The way we allocate capital matters. The way we think about long-term outcomes matters. This conversation sits at the intersection of Funding, Faith, and Future. Tune in.

    Energy Investment, Deep Tech Founders & SPAC Fundamentals

    AI doesn’t scale without infrastructure. And infrastructure doesn’t scale without disciplined capital. On this episode of The David Daily, I’m joined by Andrejka Bernatova, CEO and Chairman of Dynamix Corp. III. Andrejka has built and led public companies, partnered with private equity, taken businesses through IPO processes, and structured SPAC transactions in the energy and infrastructure sectors. Her experience spans Blackstone, sovereign wealth funds, midstream energy, renewable transition, and digital infrastructure. We’re diving into three areas that matter right now: 1. Operational Support for Energy and Deep Tech Founders 2. Energy Investment Driving AI Infrastructure Expansion 3. Energy and Digital Infrastructure SPAC Fundamentals This won’t be surface-level commentary. We’ll talk about what it actually takes to back founders beyond capital. How infrastructure investing powers long-term AI growth. And why disciplined transaction structures matter in volatile markets. Funding. Faith. Future. If you care about where capital is flowing and how real businesses are built behind the headlines, this one’s worth your time. Tune in. Powered by Reveting.

    How Fintech Is Transforming Small Business Lending

    Access to financing can make or break a small business. For years, the process of securing equipment and capital has been slowed down by paperwork, legacy systems, and fragmented workflows that make it harder for businesses to get what they need when they need it. Tomorrow I’m going live with Jake Cutler, MSc, CLFP, founder of Ampli-fi and a longtime leader in equipment finance and small business lending. Jake has spent more than 15 years working inside the industry and saw firsthand how outdated processes were creating poor experiences for sellers, lenders, and business owners alike. Determined to help modernize the space, he later completed a Master’s Degree in Digital Innovation for Fintech at Brandeis University and launched Ampli-fi with the goal of bringing embedded finance and automation into equipment lending. Jake’s work focuses on creating digital workflows that connect equipment sellers, brokers, and lenders in a way that simplifies complex transactions and improves the overall lending experience. By embedding finance directly into the sales process, businesses can move faster while lenders and partners gain clearer visibility into the deal flow. In this episode, we’ll explore three themes shaping the next generation of fintech and small business finance: • Embedded Finance Transforming Equipment Lending • Fintech Automation in SMB Equipment Finance • Digital Workflows Improving Small Business Lending As fintech continues to reshape how capital moves, the focus is shifting toward faster decisions, better customer experiences, and systems that allow business owners to focus on running their companies instead of navigating lending bureaucracy. Join us live as we explore how technology is changing the way small businesses access the capital and equipment they need to grow.
