Davis believes that a for-profit business can be a driving force for good in the world, and there is more to business than making a profit.Follow To Dine For:Official Website: ToDineForTV.comFacebook: Facebook.com/ToDineForTVInstagram: @ToDineForTVTwitter: @KateSullivanTVEmail: [email protected] Thank You to our Sponsors!MastercardAmerican National InsuranceTerlato Wine Group LavazzaFollow Our Guest:Official Site: CotoPaxi.comFacebook: Cotopaxi GearInstagram: @DavisMSmith Hosted on Acast.
