Today’s episode features a remarkable guest, Ben West, co-founder of Pragma Energy and an accomplished expert at the crossroads of energy and capital markets. Ben brings close to a decade of experience working globally with C-suite leaders, family offices, and institutional investors, lending him a unique 360-degree perspective on the energy sector. As demand for energy surges worldwide and innovations like artificial intelligence push U.S. power needs to unprecedented heights, Ben joins host Dave Wolcott to unpack the real risks and opportunities in this critical, often misunderstood, asset class.
Ben’s journey into energy investing began in Europe and has taken him from brokering high-level industry relationships to launching Pragma, a platform providing pragmatic, holistic conversations around energy needs and capital reinvestment. In this educational episode, Ben breaks down the complexities of energy investing for both newcomers and experienced investors. He discusses how changing global dynamics—from post-pandemic supply shocks to shifts in public policy and evolving international markets—are driving capital flows, shaping infrastructure challenges, and presenting exceptional opportunities for those willing to lean into the sector.
Listeners will walk away with a clear understanding of why energy remains foundational to our economy, and how passive investment in the sector can unlock consistent cash flow, powerful tax advantages, and long-term upside.
