Ian Callum CBE has been in the business for more than 50 years, 20 of those spent as Design Director for Jaguar, and now focusing on design projects that excite him, within and beyond the automotive industry. Creations to date include: the Jaguar C-X75, F-Type, F-PACE, and I-PACE, the Aston Martin Vanquish and DB7, Ford Puma and Escort Cosworth to name a few!
Joining Ian talking about all things car design will be Paul Cowland, Presenter of Salvage Hunters: Classic Cars and Motor Picker, Writer, Producer, self-described car hoarder and 'decidedly average' Racing Driver. Ian and Paul will be sharing their insight, tales and industry knowledge while surrounded by some of the most iconic cars that Ian has been involved in designing.

At 7.30pm guests will be invited into the Conference Suite ready for the main event, starting at around 8pm. Ian will begin with a talk on history, design philosophy and life in cars. Following a 15 minute interval, Ian and Paul will then host a design masterclass, including a walkaround and discussion of some of Ian’s ‘greatest hits. There will then be an exciting opportunity to pick the brains of both Ian and Paul in an audience Q&A, before the evening comes to a close at 11pm.
To top off what is set to be a fantastic evening, you’ll be supporting two great causes through the purchase of your ticket. Ian and Paul will both be donating their fees for the evening to the Teenage Cancer Trust, and all other proceeds will go towards helping to fund the vital work of the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust - the charity behind the British Motor Museum.
