Top SchoolAndrew Pickering is a seasoned entrepreneur and co-founder of ATOMIC, a Newcastle-based company helping small businesses scale revenue and impact through flagship offerings like ATOMICON, The Become ATOMIC programme, and the REBELS accelerator. With 14 years of experience launching and leading ventures—from student services and apparel startups to community platforms—he combines hands-on product instincts with practical marketing and event strategy. He’s a confident public speaker and partnership builder, having presented at international conferences and collaborated with brands such as Xero, HubSpot, Vodafone and Citi. Andrew’s approach favors "small & mighty" businesses that prioritize freedom and enjoyment over hustle, and he regularly translates that philosophy into rapid, revenue-focused programmes.
