The Future of Britain Is Bright With These Two Sisters | Dragon's Den

A courageous pitch by sisters, Sky and Kia Ballantyne as they present their innovative gadget Crikey Bikey, a harness to help parents teach kids to ride a bike safely without physical contact to the bike seat.
An international sensation, Dragon's Den features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

J Pecco do you mean Jenny?

[@user-oc8zh9ti2t]

@Pol Fartin thats an overly simplistic way to look at it. The dragons will invest if they can make money from the buisness in a reasonable ammount if time. However a buisness could still be successful and the owners could enjoy a lovely life from it (taking money as a salary), but an investor would get enough return fast as that is taking from the profit of the buisness.

[@user-oc8zh9ti2t]

@Pol Fartin running a little buisness is brilliant, of course some will have bigger ambitions, but nevertheless its still brilliant, especially for their age working with their parents
