‘Harry still doesn't like being controlled': Royal family warned Prince Harry ‘won't change' after olive branch
A Sussex insider has warned the royal family that Prince Harry 'won't change' his ways amid reports the Duke of Sussex is planning to sit down with the King. Speculation the rift between Harry and King Charles is finally starting to mend has ramped up in recent weeks after five years of public betrayals by the Sussexes. A fortnight ago, Harry's new chief communications officer Meredith Maines and UK-based PR rep Liam Maguire were photographed meeting with the King's top aide, Communications Secretary Tobyn Andreae, near Clarence House. The meeting, first revealed by The Mail on Sunday, reportedly had "no formal agenda" but there were "things both sides wanted to talk about". According to an insider who spoke to the same outlet, the meeting marked a turning point for the Sussexes, who have often been accused of timing publicity stunts to overshadow royal occasions. Harry and Meghan's penchant for conveniently timing their cash-grabs with royal events began in the months following Queen Elizabeth II's death in 2022. Since then, scarcely a Trooping the Colour or royal tour has gone by without Harry or Meghan dropping a media grenade on the same day. 'Before that meeting between their aides in London, conflicts of interest or clashes of publicity were relished and even perhaps encouraged by the Sussexes,' the insider told The Mail On Sunday. 'Now, Harry has shifted into a new way of thinking. 'The tone is now all about 'deconflicting' with his family. 'That's why his household agreed to draw up a 'grid' of his activities and share them with Buckingham Palace, and by extension with Kensington Palace.' However, the source warned Buckingham Palace that Harry's 'olive branch' did not indicate the Duke of Sussex is open to working directly with Buckingham Palace. 'Harry still doesn't like being controlled by the Royal machinery, and that won't change,' the source said. The report comes after another Sussex insider told Woman's Day that Harry is prepared to reconcile with his father without Markle's support. '(Harry) reluctantly accepts his family hate (Meghan) so there's no sense involving her in peace talks because they'd turn him down flat if he were to try,' the source said. 'So Harry's new tactic is to do this solo. He's willing to fly to the UK, set up mediation meetings, whatever they'll agree to.'

Ansett Australia is back for travellers. But not as you knew it
Acquiring the Ansett brand was relatively straightforward, Frantzeskos said. The trademark had lapsed, and the domain name was also available for purchase. He's confident that despite the painful downfall, there are many Australians – particularly those aged 35 and above – with fond memories of the airline. 'It's a shame it went away, but I think that brand voice is still compelling, and people have nostalgia for it,' Frantzeskos said. 'Just because the corporate entity behind something didn't work doesn't mean that the brand still doesn't mean something. When I mention what I'm doing to people, they get a big smile on their face.' The Ansett brand also lives on as a pilot training offering, under the brand Ansett Aviation Training. Frantzeskos, a digital marketing veteran, has worked with Emirates, Saudi Tourism and Dubai Tourism as clients and said that experience will help deliver compelling customer experiences with Ansett. He has partnered with Melbourne-based travel start-up Travlr, which is providing the platform's technical back-end and customer support infrastructure. While many of the AI features are yet to be built out, the entrepreneur said he eventually wants to provide travel experiences for customers that would be possible only with AI. For now, customers can book at near-wholesale prices on flights and accommodation and pay a $99 yearly fee for VIP membership. 'One thing I'm hoping to do is, if you've booked a holiday for your family, we'll know who you are and your name and where you're going, so I want to give you an AI-written jingle and send it to you so it can be the soundtrack of your holiday,' he said. 'I'm a big believer that you don't need armies of people out there doing stuff that can be done better with AI. And the cost of implementation is really declining so much – you don't need thousands of staff and to train them any more. With AI, you can just get going straight away. 'I think there are new, cool, fun experiences we can do what would never be achievable by humans.' Loading He added that, eventually, he believed people wouldn't have to search or plan holidays at all. 'Your travel concierge will know when the kids are on school holidays, or when you need a break, and quietly offer the perfect trip. It's not about replacing people – it's about anticipating and tailoring times when we want to have fun or disconnect.'

Strategic CEO hire to drive NeuroScientific stem cell therapy release
NeuroScientific Biopharmaceuticals has made a second heavy-hitting appointment in less than a week, bringing in experienced Melbourne-based executive Nathan Smith as its chief executive officer, as the company gears up for the commercial release of its innovative StemSmart stem cell technology. Smith has extensive experience in cell and gene therapies in senior commercial, operational and strategic roles in Australia and the United States, which should prove invaluable as the company navigates the regulatory and commercial pathways for its innovative StemSmart technology. The company says his deep expertise in good practice manufacturing will be critical for converting the biotechnology startup into a scaled-up commercial stem cell company. NeuroScientific acquired the StemSmart technology in late June via its $4.1 million acquisition of unlisted Perth-based stem cell company Isopgen. StemSmart uses a specific type of stem cell, mesenchymal stromal stem cells (MSC), as a last-line infusion treatment for critically ill patients, including those experiencing severe immune complications from bone marrow transplants, kidney and lung transplant rejection and inflammatory Crohn's disease. 'I was attracted to NSB given the historical success of StemSmart in multiple serious clinical disorders and the clear potential of the technology for further development.' NeuroScientific Biopharmaceuticals chief executive officer Nathan Smith Adding to the company's ranks of highly credentialled personnel, NeuroScientific announced on Friday that it had also recruited well-regarded Perth-based paediatric haematologist and oncologist Dr Catherine Cole as its chief medical officer. The news of both appointments has continued to fuel a stellar rise in the company's share price, which traded 11.3 per cent higher today to 24.5 cents on the best turnover since April. The company's share price is up 360 per cent since the start of June. Smith was the director of business development at Melbourne's Cell Therapies, which develops and manufactures advanced cell-based therapies and is located within the city's pioneering Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre. He has held key roles at Genzyme Corporation, Mesoblast Inc and GlaxoSmithKline in the US, as well as other leading companies in the cell therapy sector.
