Dragons Den 'contestant' wins £25m contract

[edesignuk]

Anyone watch last night? The guy with the electrical box thing just secured a £25m deal. I'd say he's met his sales targets set by the Dragons, and will be getting his 3% stock back off each.

Bravo fella

edit: Video stream of his pitch aired last night on BBC2.

UK.

edit: seems it's aired all over the place, but originated in Japan and the format is owned by Sony.

Last nights was the first one I saw in a while. Incredible news about the ChocBox guy, I thought that was a pretty nifty little invention.

He actually offered the dragons a money back guarantee.

He wasn't looking for an investment of thier money, he was mainly after an investment of their time/skills in bringing it to a bigger market.

Looks like they achieved that.
