What Happened to Beyond Boyle After Dragons’ Den?
Beyond Boyle appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2008, Series 6 Episode 8. The business was a hospitality business/corporate team. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2012.
The Pitch
Simon Boyle walked into the Den in 2008 with a hospitality business/corporate team. They were asking for N/A.
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 Simon Boyle left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Beyond Boyle did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2012, some 4 years after the pitch.
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 Beyond Boyle Still in Business?
No. Beyond Boyle is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
