The Four-Ounce Pour

from Daughters of Change · host Marie Sola

Anna Maria Ponzi has dedicated her life to Oregon wine. At the age of four, she helped plant one of the earliest vineyards as her pioneering parents established one of the first wineries in the Willamette Valley. She’s had the rare opportunity of working in every aspect of the wine business and has served the industry in myriad ways, most importantly, as an ambassador for Oregon wine both nationally and internationally. In her former role as owner and CEO of Ponzi Vineyards, she grew her family wine business from a garage operation into a globally recognized wine brand. Among other industry benchmarks, she envisioned and set in motion the transformation of Oregon wine country into a world-class visitor destination. In 1999, she established the valley’s first regional wine bar and, in 2013, opened the valley’s first seated wine-tasting experience. In 2020 she published her memoir Pinot Girl, and the following year successfully negotiated the sale of the winery to Société Jacques Bollinger of Champagne, France. She continues to support the state’s wine and tourism industry through ongoing service for multiple organizations and through her wine consulting and speaking firm, amponzi & company. She is also the co-founder of Anthony’s Circle, a non-profit that seeks to empower foster youth through the public school system to achieve an 85% graduation rate. She currently presents her keynote “The Four-Ounce Pour” as a framework to guide our lives toward greater meaning and fulfillment.Anna Maria is a daughter of change, wife, and mother of two adult children and two rather large dogs. She and her husband live on a 20-acre vineyard overlooking the bountiful and beautiful Willamette Valley. Links to Check Out:amponzi & company websiteAnna Maria's email - [email protected] to purchase Anna Maria's book "Pinot Girl"Anna Maria Instagram - @amponziAnna Maria LinkedIn ProfileFollow Daughters of Change:Website:Facebook:InstagramLinkedInMarie's LinkedIn:Daughters of Change Podcast Producer:  Sarah StaceySarah's LinkedIn Profile

This Impact Studios production is a collaboration with the Governor family, UTS Faculty of Law and Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research.The Last Outlaws teamKatherine Biber - UTS Law Professor and Chief InvestigatorAunty Loretta Parsley - Great-granddaughter of Jimmy Governor and the Governor Family Historian Leroy Parsons - Governor descendant, Narrator and Co-WriterKaitlyn Sawrey - Host, Writer and Senior ProducerFrank Lopez - Writer, Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation. This knowledge exchange workshop was part of the four months Res Not All At Once Kendall Weihe Two guys talking shop once a week. Mostly about the intersection of technology and money.
