Engine Shed Finance Briefing: Socialising the Commercial.
October 2016
“It’s easier to socialise the commercial than it is to commercialise the social” - Discuss.
Is this just the Emperor’s new clothes? Charity in disguise, CSR on steroids or Austerity via the back door? Don’t businesses have enough to do anyway, why would they bother?
