Capital Discipline, Debt & The 10-Year Founder Mindset | Dr. Serge Santos
Episode 23
Wednesday, 6 May, 2026
Most founders think growth is a funding problem.Dr Serge Santos sees it differently.As CEO of Bedrock Enterprises and founder of a UK SME lending platform, Serge has deployed capital at scale and worked across both equity and debt markets. His perspective is simple but uncomfortable: the way founders think about money is often what limits their long-term success.In this conversation we explore why capital discipline matters more than access to capital, how debt and equity are misunderstood by most entrepreneurs, and why chasing exit can quietly distort the way you build.We also dig into what it means to think in 10-year horizons instead of short-term wins, and why the strongest businesses are often the ones designed to outlast their founders entirely.This is a conversation about patience, structure, and building something that lasts longer than you do.More from James:Connect with James on LinkedInĀ or at peer-effect.comĀ
