Guest, Bastiaan den Braber
Bastiaan is the founder of ZAMBEZI ZERØ, established to put super intelligence in the hands of everyone in biosphere sustainability.
Bastiaan had the vision to use the best of the world’s technologies, combined with entrepreneurship and investment to combat African wildlife poaching as part of his 20+ year journey. He first began doing safaris in Africa in 2003 and became a FGASA Level 1 trained Field Guide in 2009. He formally devoted his life to re-establish symbiosis between humanity and our planet through founding ZAMBEZI ZERØ, a for-profit and infinitely scalable solution to a $900B market need by 2030.
Bastiaan spent 15-years with Capgemini Consulting helping executives with digital strategy, innovation, redefining operating models, institutionalizing consumer-centric design, and improving commercial performance. Most recently he helped South African clients find multi-billion USD market opportunities.
Using these tools he built SAMO, a venture capital backed start-up that drives revenue in virtual and augmented reality by helping music industry companies define, finance, and deliver their emerging tech strategy. His corporate and operator experience lead to advising a €100M SDG-centric Dutch venture capital fund LUMO Labs, based in Eindhoven, Netherlands. His experience makes him a desired team member for high growth startups like StarNews Mobile where he advised them as Head of Corporate & Business Development, and as Director of Operations for the Spatial Web Foundation where the new spatial internet standards are being developed.
He studied engineering and received his Masters in management from Nyenrode University in The Netherlands, followed by several certificate programs at tier-1 institutions like Wharton and MIT.
Life Changes Show
Come and join the conversation about what's going on and what we can do together about it, with it, and for it. We have the choice, we have the power. We can do magic if we just believe!
A show about the changes going on in us, to us, around us, and because of us. Therefore, it's technically a show about "Everything," only with a how to make it better, see it better, be better.
In the show, there is talk about, and with, people who have either been through major changes, are helping others with major changes, or people who are changing the world for the better in a major way.
The show is a one-hour talk show format with a monologue by the host, a 30 minute interview with a guest of note, capped by a "Producer's Wrap" segment, in which Filippo and Co-Host Mark Laisure, and sometimes surprise guests, bring it all home for the listeners in a sometimes humorous and sometimes touching, but always entertaining conversation.
