Malcolm Seagrave is chief executive of Hedgehog Lab, the Newcastle upon Tyne digital product studio that designs and builds software for clients, including those in regulated industries.
He was promoted to the role in March 2026 after 18 months as UK managing director, a month after the company certified as a B Corp in February 2026 with a B Impact score of 91.7 and launched a Social Value Fund financed by a percentage of client revenue. The BGF-backed business also has offices in Leeds, Edinburgh, London and Sofia.
He tells Business Matters why he admires mavericks, what he learned from taking a job for the money, and why he puts relationships ahead of any single transaction.
