North and Western Lancashire Chamber of Commerce – How to Slay the Dragons
In-person – See Booking Page for cost
In partnership with the Cumbria Chamber of Commerce, we are delighted to bring you a unique opportunity to meet and hear from three award-winning entrepreneurs and stars of the hit BBC series Dragons Den.
Our speakers, all of whom secured investment to make their dreams come true when they pitched their business ideas to five multimillionaire investors, are ready to share their stories with you and your fellow guests.
Speakers Include:
Derry Green – Secret Garden Glamping
Derry’s lockdown project for his family quickly became a lucrative business, earning him national accolades. His pitch was a roaring success in the den, earning him four offers from the dragons! See Derry’s Pitch here.
Gemma Connolly – Scoff Paper
Gemma Connolly is an entrepreneur and the founder of Scoff Paper. ‘Scoff’ claims to make the world’s first edible cards for dogs! See Gemma’s pitch here.
Denise Gosney – Razzamataz
Back in 2007, Denise Hutton-Gosney bravely entered the Den. She was looking for a £50,000 investment to grow her chain of theatre schools, which strongly emphasize performance opportunities to help each child with their confidence and self-esteem. For the first time in the Den, a Dragon offered all the money without haggling over the equity. See Denise’s pitch here.
This event is certainly one not to be missed for business owners, managers, and aspiring entrepreneurs. It’s a unique opportunity to find out what happens in ‘The Den’ and learn some tips on how to pitch your business in everyday situations to make the best impression. Plus, there’ll be some behind-the-scenes stories.
‘How to Slay the Dragons’ takes place at Forest Hills in Lancaster, set within 180 acres of spectacular woodland and beautiful Lancashire countryside.
