Episode 8: The Linklaters Ideas Foundry
Ben White and Ian Rodwell
Many of us wistfully speculate about trying something completely new. Could we/should we forsake the day job to follow our passions and enthusiasms? Well, Ben White is someone who did exactly that. With a whole drawerful of ideas and business plans, he stepped away from the roles of private practice lawyer and then in-house counsel, to found the collaborative legal community, Crafty Counsel. In this episode, Ben talks about the lure of being an entrepreneur, the key things he’s learnt (and would maybe have done differently) and why he’s (not entirely) giving up on the idea of a Chilean distillery. For anyone thinking of setting up a business, in whatever field, Ben’s experiences are essential listening.
