What Happened to Mini You After Dragons’ Den?

Mini You appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2016, Series 14 Episode 3. The business was a personalised model statues made using 3d-printing. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.

The Pitch

Sylvain Preumont walked into the Den in 2016 with a personalised model statues made using 3d-printing. They were asking for £80,000 in exchange for 15% 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 Sylvain Preumont left the Den without backing.

What Happened After the Show

Mini You is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show in 2016, the business has now been trading for over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.

Is Mini You Still Available?

Yes. My Mini Factory Limited appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
