Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to EM Medical After Dragons’ Den?
EM Medical appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2005, Series 1 Episode 6. The business was a aid for musical spains and muscle aches. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2010.
The Pitch
Rory Orr walked into the Den in 2005 with a aid for musical spains and muscle aches. 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 Rory Orr left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
EM Medical did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2010, some 5 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 EM Medical Still in Business?
No. EM Medical is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
