 Conversations with founders, investors and thought leaders in the orbit of HBA's tech and media ecosystem and beyond. How are media and technology companies conceived, how do they scale, and how do they interact with the broader social, economic and political culture we live in today and that we will inhabit in the future. This is a show about innovation and its effects on our lives, hosted by HBA's managing partner and head of media and technology, Alan Baldachin.

  • Aggregating and Innovating in Publishing with James Heckman, CEO of Maven.

    Aggregating and Innovating in Publishing with James Heckman, CEO of Maven.
    2020/03/11

    On this episode of The Medium Rules, I sit down with James Heckman to discuss his business philosophy animating Maven, as well as a look back at James’ career to date. Maven styles itself as a technology solution for publishers, centralizing and optimizing virtually all functions of a publishing business, from sales and marketing all the way through to legal and finance. And Maven is roughly modeled on two prior ventures founded by James, Rivals and Scouts, both sports-based publishing properties based on a similar “hub-and-spoke” approach to the publishing business in a digitally-native world. In this wide-ranging, informative and engaging conversation, James and I cover prior successes and failures, James' keys to success (net: strong team, reliable investors and high-quality partners), and what the future holds for Maven and the various brands it now owns and/or controls.

  • The Impeachment Trial with Adam Michaels & Mike Norton of HBA

    The Impeachment Trial with Adam Michaels & Mike Norton of HBA
    2020/01/17

    For this episode of The Medium Rules, the first of 2020, we decided to delve into the headlines and take an in-depth look at the impeachment trial of President Trump in the US Senate from a trial lawyer’s perspective. For this discussion I’m joined by two of my HBA colleagues: our head of litigation, Adam Michaels, and Partner Mike Norton, a former Assistant US Attorney for the Southern District who worked under Rudy Giuliani. We examine, among other topics, the concept of the Senate functioning as both judge and jury, the role and function of the media, the rules of evidence, the “presiding” role and function of Chief Justice Roberts (and what we might expect from Roberts in the coming days and weeks), and how all of these variables influence how a trial lawyer might approach the impeachment trial both as prosecution and defense.

    We hope you tune in, watch and listen to this important conversation.

  • Network Effects, with Tim Gunderson of Carta

    Network Effects, with Tim Gunderson of Carta
    2019/12/20
    Sometimes the biggest startup ideas are sitting right under our noses until somebody decides to just pick up and build the company. This is the case with Carta, which took an obvious pain point, the management of private company capitalization tables, and built a unicorn business. On the final episode of The Medium Rules for 2019, I sat down with Tim Gunderson, VP Products at Carta, to discuss how Carta took what might have seemed like a straightforward problem, built a simple cloud-based solution, and grew a company to a valuation of $1.7 billion (and counting!). In addition to great tech, the ubiquity of the cloud, a great founder and a great team, the magic insight here lies to a great extent in network effects: startups (in many cases with a not-so-gentle nudge from startup counsel!) go on the platform to reduce friction associated with cap table management, fund investors start to see the benefit of a high-level view of all of their portfolio investments and also urge companies to be on Carta, and finally fund LP’s are also pulled into the network to be able to easily view fund performance from the bottom up. We hope you tune in, watch and listen to this very lively season-ending episode.
