Zero Hunger Formula | Richard Lackey | TEDxWilmington

Richard Lackey sees the World Food Bank as the catalyzing entity for permanently lifting tens of millions of farmers out of poverty while securing the world’s food supply into the future. He is convinced the East African Community holds the key to a collaborative launch of the World Food Bank. He discusses a program that can make a difference, and how we can help. Mr. Richard Lackey is a serial entrepreneur with a unique background that includes several years in emergency medical response and medical missions and almost three decades as an active trader and fund manager. Mr. Lackey has held eight different securities licenses spanning equity, options and futures markets, and has served as the Managing Director for five private funds. His expertise in emergency response management, as well as the inefficiencies of markets, led him to create the World Food Bank. The World Food Bank is responsible for establishing the world’s most valuable commodities as the world’s newest and potentially safest asset class. In addition to leading the World Food Bank, he regularly consults for startup companies needing innovative solutions, marketing direction, or board leadership. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
