The Dragons’ Den pitch

Asked for: 25%
Offered equity: £760K
Sought valuation

Dr John Garside walked into the Den in Season 1, Episode 5 in the episode that aired 1 February 2005. Slim PC, the computer manufactured with wood as opposed to plastic, pitched in the Other category, one of 902 other businesses to brave the Den across all 21 seasons.

On the carpet, the number was £190,000 for a 25% stake, which valued the company at £760K.

The dragons passed, and Slim PC left without a deal. That's not always the end of the story. Some of Dragons’ Den's most successful companies were rejected on air and grew anyway, using the exposure (the "Dragons’ Den effect") to drive sales the dragons missed out on.

Slim PC was one of 61 businesses to pitch in Season 1, where 8 deals got done. In the Other category overall, roughly 11% of pitches have landed a dragon across the show's history.
