Stateside, Thameside and Tyneside: The Amazing Journey of Paul Campbell

We are delighted to have the amazingly inspiring Paul Campbell host the Use Your Loaf event on the 10th March. Here's a bit more about Paul...

Entrepreneur Paul Campbell was born and brought up in North Shields and educated at RGS Newcastle and Oxford.

Starting his career as a tea boy at BBC Radio Newcastle Paul went on to become the youngest ever BBC producer. Paul then spent the first ten years of his career in broadcasting, producing programmes for the BBC and Channel 4, before founding his first business, Bell Media in 1989, which produced digital content in all media for blue-chip clients from offices in London, New York and Newcastle

Paul relocated from London back to the North East in 2002 and co-founded Liberty Bell Productions, the producer of “Grumpy Old Men” for BBC2, before going on to establish The Amazing Group.
Launched after a three-year investment programme, The Amazing Group of Companies was formed in 2004, to create content in digital media, in partnership with subject specialists from schools, colleges, universities and specialist training providers. Two years ago, a new division was launched creating entertainment content and seeking to reinvent the music industry.

Outside of Amazing, Paul sits as a Director of the North East e-Learning Foundation; a member of the Advisory Board of Newcastle University Business School; Governor of RGS Newcastle and is a qualified ski instructor.

With Paul at the helm, the people behind Amazing have had big careers in media, software and education.

With a passion for the North East, it’s Paul’s belief in building a global brand that drives him on.
