    209. Bull, Bear & Beyond – Trustpilot: executive interview

    In this  interview, Adrian Blair, CEO of Trustpilot, discusses the three main drivers of the company’s recent momentum: a greater focus on larger enterprise customers, continued progress in the US, which remains its fastest-growing market, and stronger demand as Trustpilot reviews become more visible in large language models, to the extent that Trustpilot was the  fifth most cited domain on  ChatGPT in January.  He emphasises the importance of trust and governance on the platform and discusses how Trustpilot is using AI to detect suspicious patterns and remove fake reviews while maintaining a clear separation between commercial decision-making and content oversight. Blair argues that open customer feedback is becoming more strategically valuable for businesses, both as a tool for operational improvement and as a way to improve visibility in AI-driven discovery. He also points to scope for further margin expansion, supported by product development efficiencies and ongoing scale benefits. Trustpilot is an open review platform that brings consumers and businesses together through customer feedback. It operates a freemium subscription model, offering paid tools that help businesses collect, analyse and showcase reviews, while supporting consumers with independent, transparent information to inform purchasing decisions. ************************************************************************************** About ‘Bull, Bear & Beyond’ Bull, Bear & Beyond': features candid conversations with senior executives and from our own team of experts from across industries, exploring strategy, innovation, and the opportunities shaping their markets and 60-second pieces are a compressed summary of content designed to convey our message in a single, easily shareable hit.

    207. Bull, Bear & Beyond – Vantage: Ninety One – why geopolitics, electrification and AI are driving a commodities supercycle

    With geopolitics reshaping global markets and the AI infrastructure build-out accelerating demand for power and metals, natural resources are back in sharp focus. In this Vantage interview, Neil Shah speaks with Paul Gooden, co-portfolio manager of the Ninety One Global Natural Resources Fund, a $2bn strategy that is up 21% year to date and has delivered 53% over the past 12 months. Paul explains why natural resources deserve a dedicated allocation in any portfolio, built around five core pillars: electrification, inflation protection, attractive valuations, diversification and performance. He shares how the fund has repositioned in 2026, rotating from its overweight in gold and copper into energy and fertilisers following the US-Israel strike on Iran in February. Paul also makes the case for why gold miners remain structurally attractive despite the recent pullback, and why the halo trade – investors seeking hard assets with low AI disruption risk – is a genuine and lasting regime change. Watch the full interview to understand how Paul and his team are navigating commodity markets in one of the most complex macroeconomic environments in years. ************************************************************************************** About ‘Bull, Bear & Beyond’ Bull, Bear & Beyond': features candid conversations with senior executives and from our own team of experts from across industries, exploring strategy, innovation, and the opportunities shaping their markets and 60-second pieces are a compressed summary of content designed to convey our message in a single, easily shareable hit.

    206. Bull, Bear & Beyond – Calnex Solutions: executive interview

    In this interview, Tommy Cook, Calnex Solutions founder and CEO, discusses how the company's synchronisation and emulation solutions play an essential role in validating the performance of critical network infrastructure.  He highlights the product roadmap as interface speeds increase, with demand increasingly driven by AI-related data centre build-outs alongside ongoing telecom requirements and a growing defence opportunity. CFO Ashleigh Greenan describes a model led by hardware and software sales, complemented by growing support and maintenance income (shifting towards an c 80/20 split), and explains that the group’s capital allocation prioritises maintaining a strong, resilient balance sheet with surplus cash, while keeping some capacity for small, bolt-on M&A without taking on leverage.  Calnex Solutions designs, produces and markets test and measurement instrumentation and software used to validate the performance of critical network infrastructure. Its solutions support network synchronisation (timing) and network emulation testing for telecoms and cloud/data-centre environments, sold internationally to equipment vendors, service providers and other network operators. ************************************************************************************** About ‘Bull, Bear & Beyond’ Bull, Bear & Beyond': features candid conversations with senior executives and from our own team of experts from across industries, exploring strategy, innovation, and the opportunities shaping their markets and 60-second pieces are a compressed summary of content designed to convey our message in a single, easily shareable hit.
