Nation Builders: Dr Grenville Phillips

Share post:

Fifty years ago, Dr Grenville Phillips demonstrated a commitment to The Nation when he agreed to support a business venture on which two of his friends were embarking.

Reflecting on his association with The Nation over the last five decades, the retired chartered accountant mused it was “perhaps by chance or by providence” that he got involved with the company.

The Nation is 50 years old this month and we are celebrating all November. In the short series, Nation Builders, we hear stories by people who helped bring the organisation to where it is today.
