Epic for Scotland

Epic, the UK's leading e-learning company, today announces the appointment of Lorn Campbell as Business Development Director. Lorn has been brought in to head up the company's operation in Scotland, and is based in Edinburgh.

This appointment reflects the growing strength of Epic above the border, where the company has important clients such as The Royal Bank of Scotland, Scottish Enterprise, and the University of Dundee.

Prior to joining Epic, Lorn was Sales & Marketing Development Consultant at Heriot-Watt University, a recognised leader in e-learning within the academic sphere. He also has broad commercial experience both in the UK and Canada.

Epic CEO, Donald Clark, said: 'We have been operating in Scotland for many years, but this is the first time we have established a commercial base in Scotland. It is a growing market, with activities across business, government and education - areas in which Epic has experience and expertise.'

In addition to its Scottish CEO, Epic also has a Scottish board member, Ian Ritchie. Ian is a well-known entrepreneur and angel investor, based in Edinburgh.

Ian Ritchie said: 'Epic has had an excellent reputation in Scotland for many years, and has undertaken some of Scotland's largest e-learning projects - for example, through our relationship with The Royal Bank of Scotland. I am delighted that we have now opened a Scottish office, and look forward to developing our presence further in the future.'
