Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Aerodrums After Dragons’ Den?
Aerodrums appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2016, Series 13 Episode 13. The business was a motion tracking drum kit. They secured investment from Peter Jones and Nick Jenkins on the show. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Yann Morvan and Richard Lee walked into the Den in 2016 with a motion tracking drum kit. They were asking for £75,000 in exchange for 30% of the business.
The pitch landed well enough in the Den that at least one Dragon decided to back it.
The Deal
A deal was struck on the show. Peter Jones and Nick Jenkins offered £75,000 for 30%, and Yann Morvan and Richard Lee accepted.
It’s worth noting that Dragons’ Den deals agreed on camera often go through further negotiation off-screen. Some complete as shown; others are renegotiated or never finalise at all. The company’s subsequent trading history is the clearest indicator of what actually happened.
What Happened After the Show
Aerodrums is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show in 2016, the business has now been trading for over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
Is Aerodrums Still Available?
Yes. Fictitious Capital Limited appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
