    Alexandra Vidyuk: CEO and Founding Partner of Beyond Earth Ventures

    In this episode of Why Invest? host Luke Hyde-Smith is joined by Alexandra Vidyuk, CEO and Founding Partner of Beyond Earth Ventures, to explore the growing importance of deep tech in today’s investment landscape.

    Matthew Smith: AI Bull and Bear Part 2 ‒ The Bear Case

    In this episode of the Why Invest? podcast, hosts Luke Hyde-Smith and Tom Saville speak with Matthew Smith, Co-Founder of QSM Asset Management and a global equities investor. Taking the bearish side of our AI Bull vs Bear series, Matthew shares his perspective on why the current wave of enthusiasm around AI may not translate into the investment returns many expect.

    Benjamin Hall: Exploring the opportunity in China

    In this episode of the Why Invest? podcast, hosts Luke Hyde-Smith and James Carter are joined by Benjamin Hall, Manager of the Waverton Asia Pacific Equity Fund. Ben shares his journey into investing and offers a thoughtful perspective shaped by over 15 years' experience across emerging and Asian markets. The conversation explores how investors should think differently about China, challenging headline-driven narratives and focusing instead on long-term fundamentals. Ben discusses why profitability, capital discipline, and incentives matter more than raw growth, and why market sentiment in the region can swing between extreme optimism and pessimism. Ben also touches on some of the biggest themes shaping markets today, including China’s evolving economy, technology, energy, and AI.
