What Happened to Ambient Allstars After Dragons’ Den?

Ambient Allstars appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2005, Series 2 Episode 4. The business was a marketing agency. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The current status of the business is not publicly known.

The Pitch

Jonathan Astor walked into the Den in 2005 with a marketing agency. They were asking for £100,000 in exchange for 15% 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 Jonathan Astor left the Den without backing.

What Happened After the Show

Ambient Allstars did not survive long-term. The company has since been dissolved.

This is not an unusual outcome. The majority of businesses that appear on Dragons’ Den, deal or no deal, don’t make it in the long run. The show can provide a platform and capital, but it can’t substitute for a sustainable business model.

Is Ambient Allstars Still in Business?

No. Ambient Allstars is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
