What Happened to Zigo After Dragons’ Den?
Zigo appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2010, Series 8 Episode 5. The business was a multi-purpose carrier bike. No deal was made — the Dragons decided not to invest. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Steven Mitchell and Michael Ehrenreich walked into the Den in 2010 with a multi-purpose carrier bike. They were asking for £225,000 in exchange for 6% 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 Steven Mitchell and Michael Ehrenreich left the Den without backing.
What Happened After the Show
Zigo is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show back in 2010, 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 Zigo Still in Business?
Yes. Zigo appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
