My name is Robbie Dickson. I am a serial Entrepreneur, Angel Investor, an Engineer, and an Emphatic Gear Head. I was brought up in England, my family, generations of Engineers got me into Engineering from the age or 11. Later I would go onto invent new technologies that solved real world problems ranging from healthcare mechatronics to Automotive robotics. My education started in the UK where my first degree in Engineering were completed at the University of Wales and thereafter got my first Engineering job, working with Rolls-Royce in the UK where I learnt the true meaning of the terms Quality, Integrity and Innovation.
Wanting to establish myself firmly in the Automotive world globally, I decided to move into the clean energy automotive sector working with various large automotive OEM’s, before starting my own business developing motions control products based on technology I invented. At the same time I was fortunate enough to be able to study a couple of other Engineering disciplines at MIT, this lead me to work even closer with more Automotive OEM’s and allow me to feed my passion for Supercars. I gained my accreditation in the UK as C.Eng (Chartered Engineer) and in Canada I obtained my P.Eng (Professional Engineer) status. Piggybacking my own success I decided it was time to use my own technology and knowledge in motion control, coupled with my thirst for Supercar development, and launch my own brand of automotive Carbon Fiber equipment for Ferrari’s, Lamborghinis and other Luxury supercar brands, Attivo Designs was then born. Attivo Designs has developed an airbrake wing for Supercars that uses a technology called a Linear Actuator used from another company of mine called Firgelli Automations Inc. This is a cool technology because it can also be used in many other applications such as home automation and such.
Over the past 10 years I have been a disciplined angel investor, sticking to businesses and technologies I understand, helping young start-ups get the funding they require, and having allot of fun along the way. If you have seen the TV show Dragons Den or Shark Tank then that will give you an idea of what I do but in the real world, not for TV ratings. I am British, certainly not afraid to tell people if their idea’s are terrible. Picture a Simon Cowell in the Dragons Den and that sums me up when it comes to being pitched to
I am new to Wikipedia as an editor and I will try to stick to editing or creating pages to which i feel i am knowlegeble about, such as supercars, and technology.
