The BBC Dragons’ Den programme is accepting applications for its new series: 

‘We are searching for business ideas, inventions or products with serious business potential that are investment ready and looking for funding.’

According to the programme’s producers, Dragons Den is a challenging place to pitch, but it’s also a genuine business opportunity to secure investment. Over the previous seven series the Dragons have pledged to invest over 8 million pounds in a wide variety of business ideas and have personally changed the lives of over 70 entrepreneurs. In the most recent series, 15 entrepreneurs received offers of investment in the Den and plenty more have gone on to find success even without the backing of the Dragons.

Anybody who would like to apply can do so by emailing dragonsden@bbc.co.uk – or by visiting the website: www.bbc.co.uk/dragonsden.  Click here for additional information.
