With a network of more than 1,000 of Scotland’s current and future entrepreneurial leaders Entrepreneurial Scotland aim to inspire, develop and connect Scotland’s current and future leaders to build the most entrepreneurial society in the world.

Haig Bathgate, Tcam’s Joint Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer, said: “It’s never been a more exciting time for entrepreneurs in Scotland and Tcam are keen to support this explosion of entrepreneurial activity. Despite challenges for both the Scottish and global economy, Tcam, like Entrepreneurial Scotland (ES), take a longer view on how to identify, nurture and grow emerging opportunities for our investors. That’s why it means so much to be named as a corporate partner for ES.”

They bring with them a level of understanding, expertise and influence, which will be invaluable for our members.

I look forward to working with Tcam on achieving this exciting goal.”
