ABOUT DAVID PATON
With 25 years’ experience in innovation and product strategy, I’ve taken ideas from scribbles on paper through to successful global launches - across tobacco, nicotine, and personal care categories. I’ve built future-facing product portfolios, forged lasting partnerships between corporates and start-ups, and helped complex organisations turn ambition into action.These days, I’m happily semi-retired and working portfolio-style: advising founders, investors, and leadership teams who want a clear-eyed view on where to go next and how to get there. I bring order to ambiguity, cut through the noise, and help teams focus on what truly matters.People often say I bring calm clarity and a quietly sharp sense of humour that catches attention in unexpected ways. I get people thinking - sometimes with a knowing smile - and I’m never shy about calling out nonsense when I see it.If you want clarity, challenge, and a bit less theatre - let’s talk.
