Welcome to the latest episode of On the Couch.

In this episode, Henry Jennings sits down with Armina Rosenberg, co-founder of funds management group Minotaur Capital.

Armina represents a new breed of 'rock star' fund manager – one harnessing the power of AI to build a fund unlike any other.

From a childhood in Western Sydney to running global equities for the Atlassian founders, Armina's story fuels a clear mission: broaden who allocates capital, and sharpen how capital is deployed.

Markets are moving faster than most investment processes. In this conversation, Armina discusses Minotaur Capital, how an AI-native workflow can identify structural change earlier, compress research cycles from days to minutes, and keep human judgement where it matters most. A fascinating glimpse into the future of investing.
