What Happened to Pulse After Dragons’ Den?
Pulse appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2011, Series 9 Episode 7. The business was a police-themed educational workshops. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Jacqui Thompson walked into the Den in 2011 with a police-themed educational workshops. They were asking for £50,000.
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 Jacqui Thompson left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Pulse is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2011, 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 Pulse Still in Business?
Yes. Pulse appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
