Hilary Devey: How She Became A Success | Dragons' Den

[@mattkey4099]

What a remarkable lady. Grafted through her entire life, and that’s what bought her happiness. Only a Dragon for 2 years, but will easily be one of the most memorable. Rest in Peace, Ms. Devey.

What an absolute role model. Not only managing to create a multimillion pound business from nothing, but in a hugely male dominated industry. My late father owned a haulage company which was a very successful member of the Pall-Ex network, and having seen this, it is so interesting to see what turned into a huge business leading on to changing lives and funding charities.

Also, whenever she invested in a business, she seemed to wanna get involved in the business and genuinely help the entrepreneurs grow.

Wow, I came up with a similar idea when I got married. My best friend was a wedding photographer, but was only one man. Knowing that he would only be able to get a certain amount of shots, I decided to buy 20 throwaway cameras, and placed them at all the tables. We got photos of everyone that attended, and photos we never would have gotten even had we hired a few more photogs. 😁👍✌ P.S. Now that I've watched the entire video, and realized she has passed, I am so sad. What a woman, I wish her family, and her son all the best. 🙏
