Priyesh Bathia – apprentice contestant

He has worked for PwC and KMPG, now he wants to work with Lord Sugar.

After years in the corporate grind with the Big 4, Priyesh Bathia decided to swap spreadsheets for mixology to chase his real passion and dream of “crafting unforgettable moments where every drink tells a story”.

Bathia’s business plan is to scale his small mobile cocktail brand, The Sipologist, into a national brand. He also wants to develop a ready-to-drink cocktail and mocktail product line to be launched on supermarkets shelves.

Bathia says he is a perfect mix of charm and hustle, who is confident, quick-thinking and not afraid to get stuck in.
