# Andrew Dobbie > Founder / CEO of MadeBrave Andrew Dobbie, 42, is a creative entrepreneur and CEO of MadeBrave - a Brand & Creative agency based in Glasgow, Edinburgh and London. A true creative at heart, Andrew began his career as a designer and photographer after studying Multimedia Systems at the University of the West of Scotland. Now considered one of the UK’s leading branding experts, Andrew believes strongly in brands that live their purpose and values and are built from the inside out. Since launching MadeBrave in 2012 on a shoestring budget of just £1000 when his son, Fin, was just two weeks old, Andrew has grown MadeBrave into a multi-million-pound global agency - creating award-winning work for many of the world’s leading brands, including Nestle, Medtronic, Pfizer, Diageo, Hard Rock Hotels, First Group Plc, VELUX and KPMG. Andrew believes that through driving a positive workplace culture, exceptional work is born. This philosophy has led to numerous award wins for MadeBrave, including Campaign's Best Places to Work award and a ranking on The Sunday Times 100 Best Companies to Work For List. In addition to running MadeBrave, Andrew is well known for presenting a monthly podcast, ‘Just A Chat With’, celebrating best-in-class creativity from around the world. When he’s not helping brands find their brave, Andrew can be found at home, making content with his son Fin on their father-son TikTok page @EntertainingDad, with over 190k followers across their channels and over 200M views in the last year alone.
