#08 Everyone has the Right to Dream

For the latest episode of The Mansour Voice, our podcast series, Mr Mohamed Mansour, Founder and Chairman of Man Capital, is joined once again by Loutfy Mansour, the CEO of Man Capital, and Mr Tom Vernon, the CEO of Right to Dream, to explain the unique business model of Right to Dream and what it means to be a not-for-dividend organisation. Following Man Capital’s recent partnership with the organisation, the three also discuss its upcoming plans and ambitions. Mr Tom Vernon explains in the podcast: “The model is to vigorously pursue the standard revenue streams for football in addition to some unique revenue streams. We’re very commercially orientated in the way that we think, behave and generate revenues to provide the opportunities that we do for our children. The difference in our model, since I founded Right to Dream and since Mr Mansour and Loutfy have come on board as well, is that the intention is always for all the profits that are generated to be invested back into the provision of more opportunities and the creation of new opportunities for children. Those opportunities are through football at the moment, and perhaps other things in the future.”

#07 Purpose Enhances Performance – The Story Behind the Right To Dream Partnership

In the seventh episode of The Mansour Voice, our podcast series, Mr. Mohamed Mansour, Founder and Chairman of Man Capital, is joined by Mr Loutfy Mansour, the CEO of Man Capital, and Mr Tom Vernon, the CEO of Right to Dream, for a discussion of the foundational values that unite their organisations. Man Capital recently unveiled a partnership with Right to Dream which enables greater access to education, opportunity and equality through football. In the podcast, Mr Tom Vernon said: While we will directly impact the lives of many people through this partnership, the inspiration and the evidence that it’s possible to achieve is something we’re passionate about communicating to a far wider audience, especially children who face barriers that keep them from reaching their potential. I genuinely believe that the greatest outcome for Right to Dream will be children around the world seeing how the development of their character, skills and purpose can change the direction of their lives. Mr Loutfy Mansour added: As a family, we have a passion for football. But I realised what Tom was building is more than just an academy; he wanted to transform people’s lives. From my perspective, it was a question of how Man Capital could support Tom in his mission, and we could see the potential that Right to Dream has. I felt that if we gave Tom the support that he needed, then he could take Right to Dream to another level. Mr Mohamed Mansour continued: We feel that we have a responsibility to the communities around us, and immediately we could see how the Mansour Group’s values aligned with what Tom was doing with Right to Dream.

#06 Investing in Innovation

In the latest episode of The Mansour Voice, our podcast series, Mr. Mohamed Mansour, Founder and Chairman of Man Capital, talks about his technology investments, how Man Capital has performed in 2020, and the outlook for the tech sector with Ramy Adeeb of 1984 Ventures, the Man Capital-backed venture capital firm. “We are constantly looking for theses for changes in consumer behaviour, such as the adoption of e-commerce, or the adoption of mobile, or the adoption of telemedicine, and invest around those changes. Our investment criteria is simple – we invest in team, market, product, in that order. A strong team will iterate and pivot until they find success within a particular market,” says Mr Adeeb in the podcast. Mr. Mansour adds: “The challenge for long-term investors like ourselves is to identify the trends that are short-term and those which reflect permanent shifts.”
