The Dragons Den - BBC2 Tue 8pm

Kalnet4u started this topic @ 07:43 on 18/01/2005

For the last couple of Tuesdays I've been watching the TV program 'The Dragon's Den' on BBC2 at 8pm. For those on here that haven't seen it try and catch it tonight.

Business men and women go before a panel of investors to pitch their idea/business to get them to invest in it. I'm sure many of you would find it really useful to learn from it and it really gets you motivated for your own business too.

Not sure if the web-address is allowed to be posted on here, if not then apologies to startups admin!http://www.bbc.co.uk/dragonsden/

It's on tonight at 8pm (Tuesday).

I've been watching that too - great show. I cannot believe how many gimps get up and do the WORST presentations on completely lame ideas thinking they are going to be the next big thing. I also find it hilarious when they start getting shirty with the panel and argueing! Makes for good TV but if I were in their position I would just shut up and take in as much feedback as possible from people who obviously know their stuff! It's interesting to see how the panel decide what is a feasible idea and what is not too. You really feel for the ones who DO get offered funding but basically would have to sign away half their company there and then to get it. Not much time to weigh up the deals.
