In this episode of The Innovators & Investors Podcast, host Kristian Marquez sits down with David Brem, Managing Director of the University of Michigan’s Zell Lurie Commercialization Fund. David offers a rare glimpse into the inner workings of a student-led endowment fund focused on early-stage, sector-agnostic investments primarily in the Michigan ecosystem. He shares insights on their unique, founder-first investment approach, how they navigate pre-seed to Series A venture opportunities, and the rigorous due diligence process involving qualitative analysis over pure numbers. David also discusses his roles with global VC networks including Electro Ventures, the London Venture Capital Network, and Level Up Ventures, illustrating how he bridges U.S., European, and Australian venture ecosystems with a special focus on mobility and transportation tech. Highlights include deep dives into emerging trends like eVTOLs (electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft), smart city infrastructure, and safety innovations in aviation technology. Listeners will gain valuable perspectives on how diverse expertise—from military intelligence and management consulting to academic ventures—shapes David’s investment thesis and community-building efforts. The episode also explores the importance of networking, adding value in the startup ecosystem, and practical advice for aspiring investors or entrepreneurs navigating the venture capital world. With stories of successes, challenges, and future outlooks, this episode is a must-listen for innovators, founders, and investors aiming to understand the intersection of academia, technology, and venture capital in today’s dynamic landscape.

38: F1 Fans Make Their Voices Heard As New Survey Breaks Cover 49:09

6 днів тому49:09

49:09

This week we get behind the numbers to find out what fans think of F1, as the 2025 Global F1 Fan Survey is launched, ahead of the British Grand Prix. Over 100,000 respondents took part from 186 countries. Fans were self-selecting, so this isn’t a complete picture of all F1 fans worldwide, but what it does show is that F1 is managing the juggling act of attracting new fans, while keeping its long-standing fans on board. And the responses show there is quite a bit of common ground between the two cohorts, not least that the sporting product of F1 is the most important thing for both. We look at the box office numbers for the opening weekend of F1 The Movie and ask what it means for the sport. And we’ll hear from the newest team principal on the grid, Graeme Lowdon, why Cadillac will be operating out of both the US and the UK when they come into F1 next season. You can watch the full YouTube video on the Autosport YouTube Channel . Joining James Allen in the studio to talk through all this are Motorsport’s Editor-in-Chief Ben Hunt and F1 writer Emily Selleck.

37: Behind The Scenes Of A Visceral New F1 Documentary 41:09

13 днів тому41:09

41:09

A new F1 documentary film launches next week that brilliantly shows both the raw emotional journey and the lived experience of an F1 driver. It covers Damon Hill’s life from when his idyllic childhood was shattered after his World Champion father Graham Hill died in a place crash to finally winning the F1 World Championship in 1996. It’s a story laced with good and bad luck and a burning desire to put right what had gone wrong when his father died. What marks out this film is the rawness of the emotion in the storytelling, particularly from Damon and his wife Georgie. F1 drivers make good subjects because they are so extreme; extraordinary people who do extraordinary things. The timing is perfect as F1 the Movie hits cinemas this week, telling an underdog story. Damon was a real-life F1 underdog. So what is it really like to lose everything, but come through to triumph? And why did he feel Williams were never really behind him in his title quest? Damon Hill joins James Allen to discuss the film, along with Sky Sports F1 presenter Simon Lazenby, whose production company Sylverent brought the project to life. And joining them is Autosport’s Editor in Chief Kevin Turner. “Hill” debuts 2 July on Sky Documentaries.

Finally.. it’s F1 movie launch season. But is the film, dubbed by one critic “Barbie for men” any good? Our correspondents were given a preview showing in Montreal and give their verdict. We hear from the producer Jerry Bruckheimer and one of the stars, Kerry Condon. Plus we examine the fallout from the Canadian Grand Prix - for the second consecutive race we saw a collision in the closing stages. This time Lando Norris hit his team mate Oscar Piastri, but the dent was in Lando’s championship challenge. We look at the external and internal pressure mounting on Ferrari team boss Fred Vasseur and discuss echoes from the past when Jean Todt was under pressure and Michael Schumacher protected him. As Renault’s CEO abruptly departs, what next for Alpine F1 as they sink to 10th in the Constructors’ Championship while doing an exec search for their fourth team principal in two years? Fernando Alonso gave Aston Martin a season best result in Montreal on their 100th Grand Prix, but is Lance Stroll’s form a concern? And should Montreal race winner George Russell take matters into his own hands and force a move to Aston? In the studio with James Allen, one of our regulars, Motorsport Editor-in-Chief Ben Hunt and we welcome back Autosport’s F1 Business Correspondent Mark Mann-Bryans.

It’s a packed edition this week as James travels to the impressive new Aston Martin factory at Silverstone to speak to CEO and team principal Andy Cowell, the latest in our series of F1 Team Principal interviews. Cowell speaks in detail about Adrian Newey’s involvement in the design of the teams Honda-powered 2026 car and how he’s ‘provoking’ the team to reach an ultra-high performance level. Max Verstappen seemed to feel that his Red Bull team was anything but high-performing in the Spanish GP. But is that what drove his bizarre behaviour, colliding with Mercedes’ George Russell? James is joined in the studio by Motorsport.com Editor in Chief Ben Hunt and by Autosport’s Dutch F1 writer Ronald Vording to discuss the fallout.

33: F1 Is “Shakespeare on Wheels” And It’s Pulling In The Big Money 43:39

6 weeks тому43:39

43:39

Monaco was not the most exciting Grand Prix, Lando Norris closed the gap in the title race on his team-mate Oscar Piastri with his first victory on the streets. McLaren extended their already massive lead in the Constructors table and no-one looked happier on the podium than McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown. But away from the track, Monaco was a huge weekend, with more people, more boats and more going on than for many years. It reflected F1’s cultural and financial boomtime. And we are focussing on that in this episode. F1 is attracting a lot of new sponsors, but what is bringing the big money into the sport? We hear from the largest of them, LVMH, who have come in with a 10 year $1bn deal, using its multiple brands like Louis Vuitton, Moet Hennessy and TAG Heuer, which was the title sponsor of the Monaco GP, the first time that the race has ever had a title sponsor. We also hear from the new Liberty Media CEO Derek Chang on his vision for how F1 grows from here. James Allen is joined in the studio by Autosport’s F1 Business Correspondent Mark Mann-Bryans.

We are in the middle of another triple header, the second of the F1 season so far. Imola proved a more exciting race than anyone expected and Monaco is next with a new rule making two pit stops mandatory. Max Verstappen and Red Bull came roaring back to dominant form in Imola, while Ferrari had a weekend of two halves in front of the tifosi. And Aston Martin found some speed … in qualifying at least! So what’s going on and will Monaco give us a different picture once again? James Allen is joined by Motorsport.com Editor in Chief Ben Hunt, who is fresh back from Imola. And Autosport’s Jake Boxall-Legge explains why he thinks McLaren will be hard to beat on the streets and are favourites for a record 16th Monaco GP win.

The first triple header of the season is done, some tired faces have headed back from the Gulf for a short Easter break before attacking the standalone Miami GP next week, then another triple header: Imola, Monaco and Spain. We get into why Max Verstappen is heaping praise on Oscar Piastri, despite their Turn 1 incident, Piastri’s many father figures, Williams’ best start for a decade.

F1 has taken some very interesting turns in the last week, and we don’t mean hairpins. As we transit from Bahrain to Saudi, we have seen three of the leading drivers - Max Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris - admitting they are a bit lost, leaving the super-consistent Oscar Piastri and George Russell to hoover up the big points. Verstappen’s mentor at Red Bull has suggested they may struggle to hold onto him if things don’t improve soon. Meanwhile the FIA president made his first appearance of the season in Bahrain, after a tumultuous week of resignations and accusations. He had a chat with F1 teams and manufacturers about V10 engines, but the idea of going back to the future was thrown out. With James in the studio to analyse the behind-the-scenes intrigues and decode why some top drivers need relationship counselling with their cars are our F1 writers Ronald Vording and Jake Boxall-Legge.

This week, we take the temperature as F1 leaves Japan after its brief Asian swing and heads to the Middle East. We examine some possible consequences for F1 of President Trump’s heavy tariffs on car manufacturers and how other companies invested in F1 might be affected. And though Suzuka wasn’t the most exciting F1 race ever - the top 6 finished in grid order, which is never good - is the outline of this year’s title fight now taking shape? And we’re on “Rookie Watch” on a mixed weekend for the freshmen class of 2025. With James in the studio are Motorsport Editor-In-Chief Ben Hunt and Asia-based F1 broadcaster and sponsor broker Matthew Marsh. F1 business expert Mark Gallagher of Performance Insights and formerly Head of Cosworth, gives us his view on the likely impact of the tariffs on F1.

There’s a famous saying - “In F1, you are either giving pain or taking it.” And after just two rounds of the World Championship there are plenty of examples of that. We’ll dig into what’s gone wrong for Liam Lawson and why, after just two races, he will no longer be Max Verstappen’s team-mate at Red Bull. And we’ll look ahead, based at some of the key talking points from China: We’ll get into Oscar Piastri’s complete weekend, Lando Norris’s “will they or won’t they work?” brake dramas. Where do Ferrari go from here after a sprint win and a double disqualification? Why George Russell will keep up the scoreboard pressure on the leaders.. while his rookie team-mate Antonelli proves he is no slouch either. Why four penalty points don’t make prizes for Jack Doohan. And we say goodbye to the inimitable Eddie Jordan. With James in the studio are Motorsport and Autosport F1 correspondents Jake Boxall-Legge and Ronald Vording, who was one of the team in Shanghai that broke the Lawson story.
