Listen Later

This week on Work This Way, Adam Walker interviews Callum Campbell, a dynamic young entrepreneur who has successfully launched a variety of business ventures, including student fight nights, drive-in cinemas during the pandemic, and TED Talk-style events in pubs across London. Originally from outside Glasgow and having studied in Edinburgh, Callum shares his story of moving to London for its vibrant energy and opportunities. His entrepreneurial journey began with promoting and organising club nights at university, leading to the creation of white-collar boxing events, which have now spread across multiple UK cities. The conversation delves into his successful pivot during COVID-19 to start a drive-in cinema and his new venture, 'Pints of Knowledge,' a public speaking event series in London pubs.

His story is an inspiring testament to resilience, creativity, and the constant pursuit of new ideas.
