What Happened to iGlove After Dragons’ Den?
iGlove appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2015, Series 12 Episode 8. The business was a touch screen gloves. They secured investment from Duncan Bannatyne on the show. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Rajan Jerath walked into the Den in 2015 with a touch screen gloves. They were asking for £75,000 in exchange for 40% of the business.
The pitch landed well enough in the Den that at least one Dragon decided to back it.
The Deal
A deal was struck on the show. Duncan Bannatyne offered £75,000 for 40% (30% if targets are met.), and Rajan Jerath accepted.
It’s worth noting that Dragons’ Den deals agreed on camera often go through further negotiation off-screen. Some complete as shown; others are renegotiated or never finalise at all. The company’s subsequent trading history is the clearest indicator of what actually happened.
What Happened After the Show
iGlove is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show in 2015, the business has now been trading for over two decades — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
Is iGlove Still Available?
Yes. Aces Couture Limited appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
