Brody is giving a talk on "understanding the economic and societal impact of an unprecedentedly disruptive era"

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

If anyone has shown a COMPLETE lack of understanding of economics in a disruptive era...it's this man, surely?!

You won't need one, he's last on the agenda after the afternoon break on the last day. Taxis, the bar, flights and almost anything will be beckoning. You should be able to grab a one-on-one.

This is a pretty big hitting list of speakers actually - Martin Sorrell especially. Bet Len is getting business class flights accomodation and a 5 figure sum for this so fair play to him.

He may have been a bit flaky actually attempted something no other Coventry City board member has done and engaged and answered fans questions. The dogs abuse he got on twitter etc was a disgrace and showed up section of our "support" to be no more than neanderthals.

Best of luck to him, he'll probably need it.

I think he still has equity, yes. Not that we have any equity though.

Owns 491 shares IIRC. We did contact him a couple of years ago to enquire if they were for sale. Didn't get an answer. Still baffles me that 'one of the leading lights in North American business' couldn't get anyone to invest anything into what was a Championship football team with crowds of 15-20k playing at a state of the art arena.

Just doubled checked my emails. My mate got quoted $15,000 plus business class airfare, ground transportation, all meals and a hotel for a 30 minute speach by Len when he asked if he was available for an event in November 2012 in Hartlepool (away end) for a Coventry based organisation (CCFC fans Ltd).

I bet he manages to file his accounts on time though.

It's amazing that there are enough people gullible enough to employ an idiot like him for him to be so wealthy.
