An Edge Born in Edinburgh
Having EdinEdge.com based in Edinburgh is like discovering that the world’s finest whisky comes from Scotland—completely unsurprising to those in the know!
Born from the mind of an Englishman with Scottish heritage, EdinEdge represents that perfect cross-border mental cocktail: English practicality spiked with fiery Scottish innovation—a combination as potent as Buckfast mixed with Earl Grey tea.
Edinburgh isn’t just a city of breathtaking castles and festivals where bagpipes assault your eardrums at regular intervals; it’s the secret engineering powerhouse where brilliant minds are cultivated like prize-winning thistles.
The founder’s Scottish family probably never let him forget his English birthplace, resulting in that special kind of identity crisis that produces exceptional engineering solutions—after all, nothing drives innovation like trying to prove you’re “Scottish enough” at every family ceilidh!
This dual nationality approach means EdinEdge benefits from English politeness when things go right (“Oh, splendid code, rather!”) and Scottish passionate outbursts when they don’t (“Ya absolute bampot!”).
EdinEdge.com couldn’t possibly be based anywhere else—where else could you find people ingenious enough to create world-changing technology while simultaneously engaging in centuries-old debates about which side of Hadrian’s Wall truly produces superior engineers?
“Engineering is not merely knowing and being knowledgeable, like a walking encyclopedia; engineering is not merely analysis; engineering is not merely the possession of the capacity to get elegant solutions to non-existent engineering problems; engineering is practicing the art of the organized forcing of technological change.”
— Dean Gordon Brown
