Dragons’ Den TrackerWhat Happened to Intelligent Golf Trolley After Dragons’ Den?
Intelligent Golf Trolley appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2007, Series 4 Episode 4. The business was a remote controlled golf trolley. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The company was dissolved in 2010.
The Pitch
Mike Catling walked into the Den in 2007 with a remote controlled golf trolley. 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 Mike Catling left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Intelligent Golf Trolley did not survive long-term. The company was dissolved in 2010, only 3 years after the Den appearance.
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 Intelligent Golf Trolley Still Available?
No. Coldra Engineering Company Limited is no longer in business. Companies House records show the company has been dissolved.
