Profile bio
About Vicky Hamilton
I originally developed Recoil Kneepads as part of my final year design project. I was inspired to help my dad, Gordon, who suffers from arthritis and painful joints, which he believes has been caused by his lifelong career as a joiner. After a dinner table conversation in 2012 where he complained of problems with his knees and existing knee pads, I came up with a redesign of the traditional kneepad which reduces pressure on the knee by up to 76%! After securing funding through business start-up competitions in 2013 including, The nationwide Santander Universities Entrepreneurship Awards and the Scottish Governments Young Innovators Challenge run by The Scottish Institute for Enterprise, I began work on what became a 3 year development cycle before launching Recoil to the market in June 2016. My most recent achievement was being awarded a prestigious Royal Academy of Engineering Fellowship in London to grow and scale the business internationally. We are now actively looking for retail and distribution partners to continue our growth internationally.Following success with bringing my product to market, I now also teach various design classes on the Product Design Engineering course at Strathclyde University and act as an Enterprise Fellow at the Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship where I support students in the early stages of their commercialisation journey.
Listed skills include Microsoft Office, Customer Service, Retail, Teamwork, and 21 others.
