How Business Leaders Can Stand Up for Capitalism

Liberty Ventures Podcast with Alexander McCobin

In this engaging panel discussion, Alexander McCobin, founder of Liberty Ventures and Principled Business, dives deep into the challenges facing business leaders who struggle with embracing capitalism.
Joined by a powerhouse group of entrepreneurs, Jane Poynter (CEO of Space Perspective), Colin Greenspon (Founder of Narya), and Matt Cole (CEO of Strive), they explore:
- Why many business leaders resist embracing capitalism – despite being active capitalists themselves.
- The importance of standing unapologetically for capitalism – and defending the system that enables prosperity.
- How to align your business with your personal values – and create a company driven by mission and innovation.
- Real-world examples of entrepreneurs driving change:
Jane’s Space Perspective – democratizing space travel through innovative, non-rocket technology.
- Colin’s Narya – backing bold entrepreneurs to solve world problems and push the boundaries of what’s possible.
- Matt’s Strive – advocating for a pro-capitalism agenda and challenging ESG-driven corporate policies.
- The impact of values-driven businesses – and how the future of entrepreneurship can align with free-market capitalism to make a lasting difference.
With the rise of ESG, DEI, and other policies that challenge the free market, these leaders discuss their journey of building businesses that promote innovation, meritocracy, and the fearless pursuit of truth.
Key takeaways include:
- How capitalists can break free from societal pressure and advocate for what they believe in.
- Practical advice for building businesses that create lasting change.
- The importance of staying mission-focused and unapologetic in the pursuit of success.
These leaders show that success comes from having a clear vision, being mission-driven, and standing firm on principles—no matter the challenges.
