What Happened to Cityscapes After Dragons’ Den?
Cityscapes appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2009, Series 7 Episode 8. The business was a cityscape designs for stationery and gift cards. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Isaac Liloss and Hardvig Braun walked into the Den in 2009 with a cityscape designs for stationery and gift cards. They were asking for £50,000.
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 Isaac Liloss and Hardvig Braun left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Cityscapes is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2009, 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.
Is Cityscapes Still in Business?
Yes. Cityscapes appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
