Food for thought | Josh Littlejohn | TEDxGlasgow
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. The world is malleable. The systems and institutions we live with have been created by people no smarter than us. So if you can change and influence the world in any way you choose, what way would you change it? Josh talks about his experiences of working with the likes of President Bill Clinton and Sir Richard Branson, as well as his experience in tackling homelessness in Scotland through Social Enterprise.
Josh Littlejohn is one of Scotland's leading young Social Entrepreneurs. Inspired by the Nobel Peace Prize winner Prof Muhammad Yunus, he has created a chain of high street sandwich shops Social Bite. Josh has ambitions to replicate and franchise the shop to become a large chain of sandwich shops to compete with Pret a Manger and Eat - but to do it 100% for a social mission. Social Bite donates every penny of its profits to social causes and employs 25% of its workforce from the homeless community. Josh is also the founder of The Scottish Business Awards and has brought world leaders to Scotland to speak at his events including Sir Bob Geldof, Prof Muhammad Yunus, President Bill Clinton and Sir Richard Branson and has raised circa £1 Million for charity in three years.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
