On this episode of ScaleUp Radio, I talk with Jon Hope, who is the CEO of Billy Chip.
This is a really inspiring conversation and it's also very heart wrenching as you will hear with some of the reasons for founding the charity but also the CIC or the Community Interest Company that is Billy Chip.
And, really it is a fascinating story, with all sorts of things relating to whatever kind of business that we're trying to run and set up, but if you've ever wondered about setting up a charity, or a not for profit, or a community interest company or even a CIO, if you're wondering what all of those terms mean, then they'll all be covered within the conversation that we have and the kind of business model that is appropriate for for Jon Hope with Billy Chip but it's such a great idea.
We also talked about how discover how Paloma Faith had an influence on the business and how he's managed to have conversations right through from McDonald's, he's been interviewed on the BBC red sofa, all sorts of great stories and I met John at the Great British Entrepreneur Awards earlier on in fact, last year in 2022.
So what a great story and this is one that I think you're going to thoroughly enjoy. So let's go over to John and hear the rest of his story.
