In today’s episode, we welcome back Roland Horne, CEO and founder of WatchHouse, one of the world’s leading boutique specialty coffee businesses.

This month, WatchHouse celebrates its 10th anniversary — a milestone for this ambitious and fast-growing brand, which now operates 20 boutique coffee houses across London, Bath, and New York City.

Roland has led WatchHouse through multiple funding rounds, including a recent standout £7.2 million ($9 million) campaign, recording the largest-ever hospitality equity-only raise on a crowdfunding platform.

In this conversation, Roland reflects on what makes a funding campaign a success, emphasising the importance of momentum and authenticity. He also discusses his personal drive to leave a lasting legacy, while building a best-in-class international coffee brand.
