Which Dragon founded the company Library House?

The story behind the answer

Doug Richard founded the company Library House.

Richard established Library House as a data and research business focused on high-growth companies, investment and the technology sector. The company provided information intended to help entrepreneurs, investors and other organisations understand emerging businesses and market opportunities.

Before appearing on the British Dragons' Den panel, Richard had experience as an entrepreneur and angel investor in the United States and Britain. He was part of the original Dragons when the programme began in 2005, alongside Peter Jones, Duncan Bannatyne, Rachel Elnaugh and Theo Paphitis.

Library House is sometimes overlooked because Richard's television career made him better known to general audiences than the company itself. It should also not be confused with Moonpig or Social Chain, which were founded by later Dragons Nick Jenkins and Steven Bartlett respectively.
