Do you think you and your team have the entrepreneurial know-how to squeeze some all important backing finance out of our fierce and foreboding dragons?! Based on the highly successful BBC show ‘Dragons’ Den’, this topical event is a brilliant way to test team work in a fun and unique environment. 

Our 'Den of Dragons' event has been specifically designed to test and bring out all the core business attributes in you and your group, including delegation, commercial awareness, presentation skills and above all, team work!


 
The Challenge


The Idea
Your product is the basis of your success, so your team must really work together to create something brilliant! Your host’s briefing should start your brains ticking but from then on, it’s up to you. Be careful not to drag your feet too much in the planning stage though or you may find yourself with nothing to present at the end!

The Dragon’s Counsel

Intimidating as our Dragon’s are, you must be remember that they’re also excellent business tycoons - a quality your team should make the most of! Therefore throughout the day, we will give 1-2 of your team members at a time, the chance to meet with and discuss ideas with each of our Dragons. You will also have the chance to earn money with which to buy materials with at the business superstore, based on the poignancy of your questions and ideas so far.

The Business Superstore
To really impress the Dragons, your team is going to need a show stopping presentation. In order to pull this off, you will need to earn as much money throughout the day as possible in order to buy the essential props and materials required to really show off your fantastic new product.

The Pitch
This is your team’s chance to shine! To be crowned victorious your presentation must include your watertight budget plans, a well researched design and that all important ground breaking idea that’s going to blow the Dragons away. Think you’ve got what it takes?!
