First, an executive order to accelerate research and approval of psychedelics such as psilocybin, MDMA, and ibogaine, with a $50 million allocation and expanded access under the Right to Try Act. Days later, the Department of Justice reclassified state-licensed medical cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III, effectively eliminating enforcement of Section 280E of the tax code, which had imposed effective tax rates above 70% on industry operators.","published_at":"2026-05-01T18:02:07.674","category":"startups","author":"Francisco Torres","url":"https://sustainabl.net/agent-native/en/articulo/federal-pivot-cannabis-psychedelics-mental-health-startups-mon90m9z","json_url":"https://sustainabl.net/agent-native/en/articulo/federal-pivot-cannabis-psychedelics-mental-health-startups-mon90m9z/json"},{"id":12190,"title":"Sun International Bet on Digital and Now Leads a Market Slipping Away from Its Rivals","excerpt":"The South African betting market has been shifting for years in plain sight. Brick-and-mortar casinos are watching their share decline as players migrate to digital platforms from their phones. This is not a projection: in 2025, gross revenues from land-based casinos in South Africa fell 4.6%, and limited payout machine segments have been contracting for several consecutive years.","published_at":"2026-05-01T06:02:27.939","category":"transformation","author":"Ricardo Mendieta","url":"https://sustainabl.net/agent-native/en/articulo/sun-international-digital-strategy-leads-south-africa-betting-market-momjb0oa","json_url":"https://sustainabl.net/agent-native/en/articulo/sun-international-digital-strategy-leads-south-africa-betting-market-momjb0oa/json"},{"id":12151,"title":"The $250 Million Startup Holding Salesforce Accountable for Building on Sand","excerpt":"In 1999, Salesforce designed a data model for a world where every commercial move depended on a human opening a screen and typing something. It was a brilliant system for its time: centralizing the record of relationships, deals, and activities in an architecture that any sales force could operate. For more than two decades, that design was the backbone of business-to-business commerce. Today, that same architecture is becoming its greatest vulnerability.","published_at":"2026-04-30T06:02:28.338","category":"ai","author":"Gabriel Paz","url":"https://sustainabl.net/agent-native/en/articulo/250-million-startup-challenging-salesforce-crm-model-mol3v4ns","json_url":"https://sustainabl.net/agent-native/en/articulo/250-million-startup-challenging-salesforce-crm-model-mol3v4ns/json"},{"id":12134,"title":"The Model That Built Modern Medicine Is Losing Ground to China","excerpt":"For more than half a century, America's great academic medical centers operated as the invisible infrastructure behind almost every drug that saves lives today. More than half of the patents supporting FDA-approved drugs originated in research generated within these institutions.

Every negotiating round consumes resources—executive time, political capital, logistics, institutional credibility—and generates a return that can be measured in concrete agreements or accumulated losses. The collapse of US-Iran talks in Islamabad on April 25, 2026, is not just geopolitical news: it is a case study in the real cost of a poorly architected negotiation strategy.","published_at":"2026-04-26T02:49:02.733","category":"strategy","author":"Javier Ocaña","url":"https://sustainabl.net/agent-native/en/articulo/when-negotiating-table-becomes-most-expensive-asset-mokyhy7n","json_url":"https://sustainabl.net/agent-native/en/articulo/when-negotiating-table-becomes-most-expensive-asset-mokyhy7n/json"},{"id":12102,"title":"Coins.ph Turns Stablecoins Into Everyday Currency in the Philippines","excerpt":"For years, holding USDT or USDC in a Filipino digital wallet meant roughly the same as keeping dollars under a mattress: an asset that accumulates but never circulates. On April 21, 2026, Coins.ph closed that gap in an operationally elegant way by integrating the world's most widely used stablecoins directly with the Philippines' national QR payment standard, known as QRPh. The immediate result is that any user can now pay for their coffee, weekend groceries, or a utility bill at any of 700,000 compatible merchants using Philippine pesos, USDT, USDC, or a combination of all three — with a single code scan.","published_at":"2026-04-22T06:03:13.67","category":"innovation","author":"Ignacio Silva","url":"https://sustainabl.net/agent-native/en/articulo/coins-ph-stablecoins-everyday-currency-philippines-mo9obyq8","json_url":"https://sustainabl.net/agent-native/en/articulo/coins-ph-stablecoins-everyday-currency-philippines-mo9obyq8/json"},{"id":12091,"title":"Recycling Polyester at Industrial Scale Is No Longer Just a Promise","excerpt":"Europe generates more than five million tonnes of textile waste every year.
