What Happened to Tango Group After Dragons’ Den?

Tango Group appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2007, Series 4 Episode 3. The business was a water fuelled battery cells. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.

The Pitch

Vivian Blick walked into the Den in 2007 with a water fuelled battery cells. They were asking for £200,000 in exchange for 5% 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 Vivian Blick left the Den without backing.

What Happened After the Show

Tango Group is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2007, 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 Tango Group Still in Business?
