    Ep6. MadeBrave - Andrew Dobbie
    Aug 8 2025
    In this episode of Glasgow Business Stories, we’re joined by Andrew Dobbie, founder and CEO of MadeBrave, one of Scotland’s most recognisable creative agencies.

    Andrew shares how a leap of faith and a £1000 MacBook led to a business that now works with global brands. From freelancing on the side to building a team, a culture and a community around creativity, Andrew’s story is full of energy, ambition and grounded wisdom.

    We talk about the realities of agency life, the power of brand building, and the lessons that come from leading with optimism, especially when things get tough. Andrew reflects on the mindset shift from creative to CEO, the role of vulnerability in leadership, and why surrounding yourself with smart, kind people really matters.

    If you’re building a brand, starting something on your own, or looking for inspiration to lead with heart as well as hustle, this is one to watch.
