What Happened to AceOn Battery Solar Technology Ltd After Dragons’ Den?
AceOn Battery Solar Technology Ltd appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2012, Series 10 Episode 11. The business was a portable solar power supply- solarsds. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Mark Thompson walked into the Den in 2012 with a portable solar power supply- solarsds. They were asking for £200,000 in exchange for 10% of the business.
Despite their best efforts, the pitch didn’t convince the Dragons to open their wallets.
The Deal
No deal was made. The Dragons weren’t persuaded to invest, and Mark Thompson left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
AceOn Battery Solar Technology Ltd is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2012, the company has now been trading for well over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
