Which company did Dragon's Den investor James Caan found before joining the BBC programme?

James Caan founded Hamilton Bradshaw before joining the BBC programme Dragon's Den.

Hamilton Bradshaw is a private-equity firm established by Caan. Its activities focused on investing in and developing businesses, particularly in areas connected with recruitment, business services and related sectors. The firm reflected Caan's career as an entrepreneur and investor before his television appearances.

Caan became a Dragon during the programme's early years and was known for assessing management teams, growth potential and the practical route to expansion. His investment background differed from that of Dragons whose reputations came mainly from retail or leisure.

The company name is easy to confuse with businesses associated with other investors. Hamilton Bradshaw is Caan's private-equity venture, whereas the other names often connected with the show refer to retail chains, fitness companies or food brands.
