  • Qualité !

    Richesse des sujets et belle variété d’invités.

    Par contre, je vous invite à veiller à mesurer vos acquiescements, remarques et relances. Elles sont sincères mais bien trop présentes et surcharge l’audio…

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Stéphane Bancel: The 5% Bet That Built Moderna
Q: How do you see the role of AI in Moderna's future?
I see AI driving both science (molecule design and discovery) and business-process reinvention (speed and efficiency across functions), with the CEO acting as the chief AI officer to steer strategic adoption.
Stéphane Bancel: The 5% Bet That Built Moderna
Q: What drove the decision to slow down and diversify clinical trial sites to improve representativeness?
We aimed to ensure the vaccine would serve the world, not just a white demographic, prioritizing inclusivity and broader public health impact over speed.
Stéphane Bancel: The 5% Bet That Built Moderna
Q: How did you navigate the funding and manufacturing challenges during the pandemic?
We secured US government support and a bank-led capital raise to fund manufacturing scale, enabling parallel efforts across development, production, and distribution when private funding and foundations failed to come through.
Stéphane Bancel: The 5% Bet That Built Moderna
Q: What convinced you to take the enormous risk with Moderna when odds were so low?
The asymmetry between potential upside and the manageable downside, plus a belief in the technology's capability and a personal calling to impact global health, convinced me to take the bet despite skepticism from peers.
The Iceberg Strategy: Ine Van Wymersch, Drug Commissioner
Q: What was the scale of the problem Belgium faced and what shocked you in your early months as national drug commissioner?
I was surprised that law enforcement alone wasn't enough; without a broader strategy including private sector engagement and social interventions, the drug problem would persist despite arrests and seizures.
