  Venture capital (VC) is a type of private equity funding that is provided to startups, early-stage companies, or emerging businesses with high growth potential. The primary goal of venture capital is to invest in companies that are poised for rapid growth and, ultimately, to achieve significant financial returns. Venture capitalists, typically investors or firms, provide capital in exchange for equity ownership in the company. This investment is usually made in industries that are considered innovative or disruptive, such as technology, healthcare, and biotechnology. 
  Venture capital plays a vital role in the economy by supporting entrepreneurship and fostering innovation. Many of the most successful and iconic companies, such as Apple, Google, and Facebook, began as startups backed by venture capital. These investments not only provide financial resources but also offer guidance, mentorship, and access to a broad network of industry professionals. In this sense, venture capitalists often play an active role in shaping the direction and strategy of the companies they invest in, helping them scale and navigate challenges in their growth journey. 
  The venture capital ecosystem consists of several key players, each playing a unique role in the investment process. At the center are venture capital firms, which raise capital from institutional investors, such as pension funds and endowments, as well as high-net-worth individuals. These firms then deploy the capital into promising startups. Founders and entrepreneurs who seek venture capital must pitch their business ideas to potential investors, demonstrating the growth potential of their ventures and how the capital will help them achieve their goals.

Elmar Lutter, President & CEO at Lufthansa Technik Philippines, believes unequivocally that we should. But how, in a field mired with technical and design complexities, reliance on human judgement, impossible timing constraints, and how-to-manuals that go on for miles, do we?In Error Traps: How High-Performing Teams Learn to Avoid Mistakes in Aircraft Maintenance, Lutter challenges us to focus on our sphere of influence to avoid mishaps. In doing so, we can practice certain behaviors and attitudes that can:• Intercept chains of events that have the potential to cause damage.• Avoid predictable errors to reduce the exposure to becoming collateral damage in mishaps initiated outside of our sphere of control.Through a journey of compelling aviation experiences, Lutter offers four tools that every individual in aircraft MRO can and should employ to ensure they have done their very best to keep their team on the ground and the pilots and passengers in the air as safe as possible.Using real-world examples to connect the dots between 1. Competence: Master the basics 2. Awareness: Be in the moment, know what is coming 3. Compliance: Respect the defenses: read and follow the guidance, and 4. Teamwork: Look after one another,Lutter shares important insights and life lessons drawn from more than twenty years of collective knowledge and experience in an often unforgiving field.

  The first and only comprehensive resource designed to empower everyday people with insider knowledge on moving money for a more equitable economy. 
   
   
   
  Financial activism is how everyday people radically reimagine money as a tool for widespread well-being, instead of a weapon of absurdly increasing inequality. It's how we—the underestimated—collectively resist systems that cause harm to people and the planet for the sake of profit, reclaim wealth that's been stolen, and redesign our relationships with capital and one another, in ways big and small. 
   
   
   
  The Financial Activist Playbook offers eight accessible, actionable, "choose-your-own-adventure" strategies for listeners to experiment with. Drawing on timely insider knowledge from the worlds of impact investing, social justice, and more, Rashid illuminates a treasure trove of stories: demonstrating how people power can flow big bucks out of extractive industries, and into the economy of care and abundance we deserve. 
   
   
   
  Laced with refreshing humor, empowering exercises, and a steadfast commitment to truth-telling, Rashid takes listeners on an energizing ride of financial possibility and practicality that will reverberate for generations to come.
