Can you tell us a bit about yourself, your business, and the journey that brought you here?

At Edinburgh Instruments, we’ve been innovating in Scotland for over five decades. Starting at Heriot-Watt University, we’ve grown into a global pioneer in molecular spectroscopy, developing world-class scientific instruments used by researchers around the globe.

Supporting Edinburgh Rugby through player sponsorship feels like a natural fit. As a company founded just outside Edinburgh, we’re proud to back a team that represents our city on both national and international stages.

What drew us to this partnership are the shared values of precision, resilience, and teamwork, qualities essential in both science and sport. The collaboration also helps us reach audiences that align with our key markets, including academics, professionals, and industry leaders.

Beyond visibility, it’s about connection and storytelling, from Tackling Science outreach in schools to behind-the-scenes content that bridges the worlds of science and sport.

This sponsorship is something our entire team takes pride in; it celebrates our Scottish heritage, reflects our culture of excellence, and reinforces our identity as a Scottish success story with global impact.

What makes you or your organisation unique, and what values are most important to you?

What sets Edinburgh Instruments apart is our comprehensive expertise in spectroscopy. While others may specialise in one technique, we provide a full suite of complementary technologies, from Photoluminescence and Raman to UV-Vis, FTIR, and Transient Absorption, all developed and manufactured in the UK.

This breadth ensures our customers benefit from consistency, reliability, and seamless integration across their research.

At the heart of our business are the values of innovation, precision, and collaboration. We’re driven by a commitment to scientific excellence and a belief that the best discoveries come through partnership, both within our team and with the global research community.

What inspired you to support this player as a sponsor?

Our sponsorship of Cammy Scott builds on our broader support for Edinburgh Rugby and the Tackling Science initiative. Cammy’s determination and energy perfectly align with our mission to connect science, sport, and education.

How do you hope this sponsorship will benefit your brand / business?

Through sponsoring Cammy, we aim to enhance awareness of Edinburgh Instruments both locally and internationally. As an Edinburgh-based manufacturer with global reach, this partnership allows us to celebrate Cammy’s success on the pitch while promoting science education off it.

Through Tackling Science, Cammy becomes not only a player we support but also an ambassador for the next generation of scientists and innovators. We’re excited to follow his journey and celebrate his achievements this season.

If you could share one message with supporters / local businesses about your involvement, what would it be?

We’re proud to support Cammy and lead the Tackling Science initiative in partnership with Edinburgh Rugby.

At Edinburgh Instruments, we believe both science and sport ignite curiosity, build resilience, and foster teamwork, inspiring young people to stay engaged, active, and motivated in their pursuits.
