Richard McCallum is the Senior Advisor of UKIBC and looks after the Defence and Aerospace sector. In addition to his longstanding knowledge of the UKIBC, Dickie brings to the role a clear understanding of the UK-India economic corridor, and bilateral corporate agendas within it.
Dickie started his career with John Swire & Sons, seconded to roles with Cathay Pacific Airways Limited in Hong Kong, Karachi and New Delhi. Prior to joining UKIBC, Dickie founded and ran an adventure tourism start-up in India.
Over the past decade, the UKIBC has grown in size and scope, expanding its presence and impact in both the UK and India, and driving bilateral trade and investment flows. Its strong corporate network, particularly within its membership, its relationships with governments across the UK and India, and its range of advocacy and advisory services make it the leading non-governmental organisation supporting both Indian and UK companies.
