Attached is the October Newsletter from Ownership Associates UK, written by my friend and fellow employee ownership advocate Carole Leslie:
A very warm welcome to Lisle Design on their move to employee ownership. The St Andrews based technology company created quite a media splash with their news!
Can employee ownership be a force for good across the world? Graeme Nuttall OBE certainly thinks so and several international EO bodies agree with him. There is also a report of the recent Oakeshott lecture delivered by The Rt Hon Jesse Norman MP, Chief Secretary to the Treasury, which is hopefully a sign that government support for the EOT will continue.
Collective Architecture celebrate the winning of even more awards, and we learn about what’s happening with ERS Remediation and Bentleys Shopfit. Happy 25th Birthday to Scotland’s most northerly employee-owned business ESPL. There’s also news of board appointments at SfEO.
Please do circulate to colleagues and encourage them to sign up for their own copy here. And if you have any good stories you would like to feature, just let me know!
