June 16, 2026 Live from the Nice Conference: Ian Malin, CCO of Wizz Air
Recorded live from our Nice Conference, we sit down with Ian Malin, Chief Commercial Officer of Wizz Air, for an In the Know special. Here, we unpack how Wizz has built one of aviation’s youngest, most efficient fleet – and what investors still overlook about its model. We explore whether high fuel prices strengthen its competitive edge, how it deploys aircraft and selects routes to reshape demand, and which markets have driven the most success. We also examine Wizz’s evolving brand, its approach to tech and AI, gaps in the customer journey, untapped marketing opportunities and finally, we look ahead to where the airline sees its biggest growth over the next 3–5 years.

June 03, 2026 Nadine Sarwat: A $20+ Cocktail... In This Economy?
In this episode, American & European Beverages Analyst Nadine discusses the hot topic of spirits pricing. Diageo intends to introduce brands at price points it had previously ignored and to selectively execute price repositioning certain brands in certain geographies, Brown-Forman’s pricing power is also in focus as cost pressures are set to intensify, and all of this is against the backdrop of the ongoing cyclical vs. structural debate in US alcohol. So many investors have been wondering… should distillers adopt a tobacco-like strategy of using stronger price to offset volume decline? Or should distillers actually cut pricing to stimulate demand in an environment where affordability is under pressure? Today Nadine rolls up her sleeves and digs into this debate and more!
