Independent Candidate Jack Hidary for Mayor of NYC

from A Better World with Mitchell J. Rabin · host A Better World with Mitchell J. Rabin

Wednesday, Aug 7, 6pm EDT: New York’s Mayoral race is on. There is an interesting cast of characters who are running–it would certainly make an interesting Broadway show. One of the more solid candidates, Jack Hidary, doesn’t have a background in politics,interestingly, at all. Which may be a tremendous advantage.  What he does have, however, is an extensive background in business and entrepreneurship, as well as has a background in neuroscience and philosophy, both excellent disciplines to have for entering the political arena. After handing off management of the company to a new team, Jack became active in public service. He got engaged in helping small businesses grow and championing new models of education. Jack has served as an associate partner at the Partnership for NYC, a trustee of the Citizens Budget Commission and a member of the steering committee of ABNY. Jack has been recognized for his leadership by organizations such as the World Economic Forum and the National Committee on US-China Relations. He is a founding member of the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI), a group created by President Bill Clinton to bring together government, the private sector and non-profits together to solve the big problems of our day. Jack has also been a member of YPO. Please note that the other candidates for Mayor were invited onto the show but their staff was apparently so busy, none of them got in under the deadline.  As a result, the independent candidate, which A Better World tends to favor, will get the benefit of being the featured candidate on our show.
