Next Episode: Episode 9 - An interview with global technology entrepreneur, Carmen Vicelich

In this week’s episode, we hear how a humble idea became a reality for a man who professes that he likes to right wrongs.

Co-founder of SecondBite, Ian Carson AO walks our listeners through how the organisation rescues almost 20 million kilograms of food a year and turns it into healthy meals for those Australians who have no food security.

Ian explains why SecondBite is actually a logistics organisation and how 20 cents equates to a meal for those in need.

Ian shares the concept of Shared Vision and how corporates can work with charities to improve societal issues. He explains why major partner Coles have been able to increase staff engagement levels through their association with SecondBite

Finally, we touch on the role of volunteers and what drives him to give so freely of his time.

By day, the Head of Markets at PWC, at night a hero to those in need!
