James Cameron & David Finlay; Cameron Finlay

Cameron Finlay was established in 2008 by James Cameron and David Finlay. Their aim is to create an internationally focussed product design business.

In their previous lives, James ran one of the biggest and most successful design agencies in Scotland whilst David ran an international manufacturing business from Falkirk. David’s bath and body brands have sold in some of the most prestigious stores the world over and can count Kylie Minogue as a fan of his products. Together they have amassed more than 30 years of design and product branding experience and aim to build a portfolio of internationally recognisable brands.

Guest Commentator for Cameron Finlay
Andy Campbell, Founder Specialmove Consulting

As founder of one the UK’s leading game development companies, Red Lemon, Andy secured £2M of Venture Capital and £7m of prestigious new contracts with a number of Blue Chip companies.

After selling the assets to Visual Science Andy joined them as Chief Commercial Officer and Board Member in late 2002. In that time Andy was instrumental in growing the company from 35 to 105 staff, annually doubling turnover, and returning the company to profitability.

In October 2005, Andy left Visual Science to pursue a variety of business interests, start ups and high growth companies; including Specialmove Consulting Ltd where he is currently CEO.

Andrew Grant; Nation 1

Andrew Grant founded 6^th SENSE, in June 1999 with just a five thousand pound bank loan and a lot of ambition!

In 2000, 6^th SENSE beat off heavy weight competition from established agencies and spear-headed the repositioning of the iconic Brylcreem brand. In 2006 6th SENSE became Nation 1 and transferred 100% of their focus into digital marketing.

Since then, Nation 1 has developed a unique business strategy to create a “Nation 1 blue print”. National and International expansion is the key goal for Nation 1 over the next few years and Andrew will be outlining how he intends to take his company into new markets.
