In both my role as Regional Development Manager for Entrepreneurial Scotland and previously as Chief Executive of Inverclyde Chamber of Commerce I have worked closely with Andrew. I have been very impressed by his professionalism, knowledge, experience and can do attitude. We both have a strong desire to develop Inverclyde and he has been instrumental in promoting and driving positive business and events to the area. A great ambassador and a real team player. He is excellent at developing and implementing projects and has been a great asset to RI.

      I am the co-founder of Creative Inverclyde, a social enterprise with a focus to utilise the creative sector to be a nucleus for positive social change in Inverclyde; where creativity, arts and culture meet economic regeneration by working together to create a better place to live and work. From music and architecture to art and film, Inverclyde has always had an incredibly creative community. To build on that community, we’ve developed Creative Inverclyde, a series of talks and events from local creatives with inspiring stories to tell. Designed to encourage discussion, share ideas and foster collaboration, we want to champion our creative community and make people aware of the undoubted creative talent from Inverclyde who are making a difference in our local community and on a global scale. Launched in June 2018, Creative Inverclyde is blending together creatives based in or from Inverclyde with regular events. Show less
