Arcus FM is thrilled to announce that Patrick Macdonald, the Chair of Arcus FM, has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh (FRSE).
The RSE is Scotland’s national academy with a Fellowship of 1,800 drawn from the sciences, arts, business, professions, and the third and public sectors. Founded in 1783, the RSE plays a leading part in advising policymakers, inspiring innovators, and helping tackle the most pressing issues of the day.
Patrick has held the position of Arcus FM’s Chair since August 2020 and has been instrumental in the business’ sustainable, profitable growth since that time.
On his election, Patrick said, “I’m honoured to join the RSE and its fantastic group of Fellows whose expertise, understanding, and knowledge contribute so much to social and economic wellbeing both nationally and internationally. I look forward to playing my full part in its influential and important work.”
Commenting on this achievement, Chris Green, Chief Executive Officer of Arcus FM, said, “All of us at Arcus are absolutely delighted that Patrick has been recognised in this way. The experience and guidance that he has brought to Arcus since his appointment as Chair have been invaluable. Not only that, but he is a great sounding board and has provided me with a lot of support as CEO. Congratulations, Patrick.”
