Can businesses be profitable AND be good? Aaron (@aaronhughellis) tries to answer this question with Andrew Beattie (@AndrewBeattie), the co-founder of ‘Ethos’ (@ethos_mag), which celebrates companies and start-ups that behave ethically and responsibly. They discuss why philanthropic largesse doesn’t necessarily make a business ‘good’; why there are few, if any positive depictions of entrepreneurs on TV or in films; as well as Andrew giving people money to just do awesome things. You can buy issues of ‘Ethos’ here: https://shop.ethos-magazine.com/ ‘Open Country’ needs your support. We’re over halfway to our £1000 fundraising goal.
