Down The Pub with J Mark Dodds
Description
Mark Dodds is the convener for the People's Pub Partnership: A pragmatic plan for creating a national social enterprise "pubco" for a grass roots, people-powered Green New Deal.
He is also an Fellow of the RSA - the royal society for the encouragement of arts, manufactures and commerce. "FRSA"s are committed to inspiring better ways of thinking, acting and delivering change. An integral part of the RSA is creating a better future and Fellows champion new ideas, drive social change, deliver practical solutions and support the RSA mission.
In my emotional conversation with Mark, he shows us how we could put the world to rights by way of a community-driven utopia in which pub co-operatives combine sustainability, shared ownership and community engagement. And yet it's not an utopia. It's a real possibility. And Mark is a driving force that will make it happen...
Let's reinvent pub culture in this country, empowering pub owners and disrupt the pub industry to accelerate some much needed positive change.
Any creative, visionary and disruptive Private Equity friends should probably watch this one...
