Beyond the Business is a narrative podcast about the systems that quietly shape modern business — energy, infrastructure, sustainability, technology, and risk. Each episode deconstructs the economic logic behind today’s transitions, exposing hidden costs, legacy structures, and long-term consequences that rarely appear in boardrooms or reports. It’s about helping business see the system it operates in more clearly. My LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-byelyavtsev-a702a22a/

    S3E13 Abyss

    Abyss looks at the ocean floor as the place where the consequences of modern activity settle over time. Through examples of dumping, accumulation, and lost materials, the episode explores how the deep sea becomes a quiet record of how the surface operates.

    Business News Weekly Digest 05

    LNG bought shipping time. Electrification promises a new direction. But are we actually transitioning — or just managing uncertainty? In this episode, we look at how the industry is balancing stability with ambition, and why the real story isn’t fuel, it’s system design.

    S3E12 The Hydrogen Choice

    Hydrogen is being sold as the future of shipping. Zero emissions. Clean fuel. Green transition. But what if hydrogen is not a solution, only a workaround? In this episode, we unpack what hydrogen really is, why ammonia became its maritime form, and what “zero at the exhaust” hides upstream. This is not about rejecting hydrogen. It is about understanding the system behind it.

    S3E11 The Coast

    Singapore is moving its shoreline. Fujairah is expanding its terminals. Palm Jumeirah reshaped the Gulf. The Netherlands keeps reinforcing land that sits below sea level. The coast is no longer just where land meets water. It is where trade grows, where artificial islands appear, where shipping concentrates, where cities discharge, and where sea level keeps rising. This episode is about what happens when we build outward, enclose water, multiply infrastructure and then act surprised when currents shift, fish disappear and erosion accelerates. If you live near the Gulf, in Southeast Asia, in Europe or anywhere within 100 kilometres of the sea, this is not abstract. This is your coastline.

    S3E10 The Atom Mission

    The Atom Mission is a deep dive into why nuclear energy is trusted everywhere except where it could change everything and what that says about modern decision-making under risk.

    S3E09 Bio Equation

    Bio Equation is not about saving nature. It’s about what happens when a living system keeps compensating instead of collapsing, until markets notice too late. Species don’t disappear quietly. They rewrite the equation.

    S3E08 The Ministry of Damage Prevention

    Ministry of Damage Prevention explores the moment when consequences are already unfolding, while governance is still speaking in plans and frameworks. It examines why no existing ministry is responsible for preventing systemic damage, and what happens when damage becomes the default condition. This episode is about clarity, responsibility, and decision-making in a world that no longer waits.
