Lewis Hunter buys, builds and backs businesses. He buys companies outright, takes equity stakes in the ones he believes in, and puts capital into property deals alongside partners. He has been operating since he was fifteen, has two completed exits behind him, and runs a portfolio of companies and property today.

He works inside the businesses he backs as a shareholder rather than advising from the outside, which is the argument he is best known for: advice from someone who gets paid either way is worth less, because the invoice goes out regardless. He is the number one bestselling author of The Operator Trap, and has spent over 100 hours on stage including Red Bull Racing and the Ferrari and Lamborghini museums.
