With sustainable fishing being incredibly topical at the moment, what better way to finish our sustainability podcast series than by talking to Carl Carrington and Ben Rodgers at New Zealand King Salmon!? Carl and Ben talk about how their company has learned to work and adapt with climate change for ideal growth of their salmon, as well as exciting opportunities ahead, such as Blue Endeavour.  

Earlier this month we were proud to welcome our first listing for 2024, BeingAI to the NZX! BeingAI is a company at the forefront of bringing groundbreaking technology to business operations. In such an exciting era for the team, we spoke to the company’s Chair Sean Joyce and CEO David McDonald about the inspiration for the company, why they listed on the NZX and their exciting future ahead. 

In this episode of The Opening Bell, we hear from Adam Davis, Co-founder of Farrer Capital Management, on the recent resurgence of interest in agricultural commodities trading.

At Bremworth, sustainability is intricately woven into all aspects of the company’s fabric. We were joined by the company’s CEO, Greg Smith to discuss the inspiration and opportunity to take the transformative leap to focus purely on wool carpets and rugs and how they’re working hard alongside their customers to go good together.

Now more than ever sustainability is front of mind for both investors and companies.
