James Hind is the Founder and CEO of Carwow, one of the most popular platforms for buying new and used cars in the UK. James studied Finance, which led him into the corporate world, however it was not long before he realised that the only was he was going to be fulfilled professionally was if he went it alone. After working as a ski guide for a few months James went ahead and launched carwow in 2011 with the mission of helping people choose and buy the best car. Since then carwow has grown to become one of the most exciting marketplaces and media brands in the automotive sector.

James sat down with Riding Unicorns to discuss what propelled him to launch the business, what lessons he has learnt along the way and what plans he has for the future of the company.
