Iain Hamilton

Iain Hamilton has worked in IT since Bishop Briggs was an altar-boy.  He was originally head-hunted to work for an HP broker in the Midlands because not only did he know the difference between daisy-wheel and dot-matrix printers, but he also knew more than one definition of the word “driver”.


As the first pre-286 PCs became more than a silicon gleam in the IBM, he moved to Glasgow and became involved in cabling and the infancy of Ethernets by installing networks for a range of customers that included major banking groups.  By the time PCs had achieved the lofty heights of 386 processors, Iain was building machines at home whilst servicing clients from hospitals to colleges to Premier football teams, designing and installing both copper and fibre networks.


After a varied career that included serving on the validation committee for the very first HND Computer Networks course in Scotland, he decided that it was time to take responsibility for his own downfall and head out into the big, bad world of self employment. With around 25 years in the IT industry, Iain recognises and understands not only the “big picture” when it comes to designing appropriate and expandable networks for Techniphobia’s customers,  but is more than capable of delving  into the nuts and bolts of day-to day support issues

Kenny Gair

Kenny hails from the Lanark area and from a musical background. Kenny played in various bands and appeared in theatres in several guises from his teens through to his mid twenties when, realising that pop stardom wasn't breaking its neck to open the door to him, he accepted the offer of a sensible job and off he wandered into the world of adulthood. Settled down and found two kids looking for a dad.

Bored in a career that was clearly going under (selling diggers), Kenny set about pursuing a way of making money from his hobby....computing. Some 4 years and a BSc later, Kenny found himself employed as IT manager for a large farming company. The rest I'm afraid, is tragic history!!

A year on and Kenny had moved on the pastures new but this time into selling IT solutions, something that was only meant to last for a few months. Six years later and lots of industry experience later, Kenny bade farewell to his beloved Sales Manager's position and joined forces with Iain to set up and run Techniphobia Ltd. And so the story continues.........................
