Dragons’ Den Tracker

The Pitch

Nick Monrow, Daniel and Roderick Butterfield walked into the Den in 2015 with a throw and catching game. They were asking for £100,000 in exchange for 20% 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 Nick Monrow, Daniel and Roderick Butterfield left the Den without backing.

What Happened After the Show

Funslinger is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2015, 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 Funslinger Still in Business?

Yes. Funslinger appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
