James Caan, a Dragon on the BBC series Dragon's Den, founded the business group Hamilton Bradshaw.
Hamilton Bradshaw was established as a private-equity and investment business associated with Caan’s career in recruitment and entrepreneurship. His experience assessing companies and management teams informed the direct, deal-oriented style he brought to the Dragon's Den panel.
The name Hamilton Bradshaw can be confused with Caan’s recruitment businesses because both belong to different stages of his commercial career. Caan became a Dragon in the middle of the programme’s run and was known for concentrating on the commercial potential, scalability and leadership behind a pitch.
