Biografie

Upon leaving school in 1863 he initially worked for a tea merchant before entering the firm of sugar merchants Bosanquet, Curtis and Co, where he worked his way up to become a senior partner; renamed Hogg, Curtis and Campbell, the firm prospered under his direction and controlled several factories in Demerara, British Guiana. Hogg was known for modernizing production methods and for his philanthropy, the latter motivated largely by his Christian faith. His best known role was as founder and president of the Regent Street Polytechnic (now part of the University of Westminster), which provided adult education for both sexes.
