Dragons’ Den Tracker

The Pitch

Sophie Elmer and Rebecca Moule walked into the Den in 2025 with a residential app for mutual friends. They were asking for £100,000 in exchange for 20% 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. Touker Suleyman offered £100,000 for 20%, and Sophie Elmer and Rebecca Moule 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

Mates Place is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. The company has now been trading for around 1 years since the pitch.

Is Mates Place Still in Business?

Yes. Mates Place appears to still be trading.
