DRAGONS’ DEN will be holding open auditions in Toronto on Saturday, January 18, 2014 looking for the next big thing for the hit series on CBC Television.

DRAGONS’ DEN gives aspiring entrepreneurs the opportunity to pitch their businesses to a panel of wealthy Canadian business moguls - the Dragons. Successful pitchers will have a chance to earn real investment - from the Dragons’ own pockets!

This is a fantastic opportunity for entrepreneurs and small business owners to come down and pitch their business concept for the chance to appear on national television. We would love to see as many people audition as we can!

I’ve attached a press release which has more details, or visit our website for a complete list of cities and dates, http://www.cbc.ca/dragonsden/auditions.

Let all those aspiring entrepreneurs know about the upcoming auditions and their chance to get the investment of a lifetime!
