Opportunity to appear in online version of Dragons Den

Article Added:
HotHive Textiles has just had an email from the press department at the BBC telling us about an exciting new opportunity from the makers of the award-winning BBC series Dragons’ Den. Harnessing the accessibility and reach of the internet, the ‘Online Dragon’ offers entrepreneurs from across the country the chance to make their business dreams come true.

Dragon is an opportunity for entrepreneurs to pitch their ideas to two new ‘Dragons’ chosen for their business expertise, and also provides a platform for wider debate and discussion around these ideas before they appear in the online ‘Den.’

The investment will be limited to less than £50,000. The BBC are interested in great ideas, which may range from innovative blue-sky thinking to investment-ready products. So if you have an idea for a great new textile product but need some help to get it off the ground then this may be the ideal opportunity for you. Please be aware that all applications must include a video pitch.

Entrepreneurs wanting to apply can do so via email to dragonsden@bbc.co.uk or by visiting the website www.bbc.co.uk/dragonsden.

If you have a product selected for the series then don’t forget to let us know about it!
