$50M Startup, Student Movement and Association Innovation with Alexander McCobin, Tom Wojno and Pavel Bosovik
In this episode of Accelerate with David Alexander, three operators show how values, community, and systems translate into measurable returns.
Alexander McCobin: Founder and CEO of Liberty Ventures, a community reaching 20,000 plus members. Former CEO of Conscious Capitalism with Whole Foods co-founder John Mackey. Co- founder of Students for Liberty.
Tom Wojno: COO and SVP at International Dairy Foods Association. Represents a sector covering nearly 90 percent of U.S. dairy processing. Known for a quantified 13 to 1 association ROI. Former leadership at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, National Restaurant Association, and Bloomberg.
Pavel Bosovik: CEO of 27 North. Scaled a 50 million dollar pandemic startup with a people first pay your fair share ethos that turns reputation into real returns. He's an active philanthropist supporting organizations such as Care to Learn out of Springfield MO focused on health, hunger and hygiene.
Across one fast moving conversation, they map the ROI ledger every association and community should pursue, the network leverage that converts relationships into capital, talent and strategy. You will hear the student movement habits that seed billion dollar brands, the operating system behind a 13 to 1 return, and what it looks like to scale while doing the right thing on paper and in practice.
If you lead a fund, an association, or a founding team, this is a playbook for measurable credibility. Press play, and bring a pen.
