History

In 2002, Caan had sold off his stakes in Humana International, Recruitment International, and Alexander Mann. These sales allowed Caan to take a "gap year", studying management at Harvard.[1] The sale of Alexander Mann also led to James Caan forming a company that would focus on private equity.[2] While Hamilton Bradshaw and its staff are involved in holdings related to Dragon's Den, most of the company's business comes from other sources and opportunities.[3]
