We hosted an event in the style of the popular BBC programme “Dragon’s Den” – held at the Pearce Institute in Govan on Wednesday 19th of August. This was to provide people we work for with a business idea to obtain some funding to get their idea of the ground.
7 individuals took part, each pitched their idea to our Dragon’s (judges). Their was an audience of around 40 in attendance consisting of C-Change Scotland employees as well as family and friends of participants, all their to show their support.
Congratulations to all 7 participants – who all were awarded some start-up funds for their respective business proposals.
Many thanks to our Dragon’s who were:
Stephen Cole – Managing Director of Cole-Ad
Maura Lynch – Depute Chief Executive of SCLD
Elizabeth Gibson – Executive Artistic Director at Project Ability
Natalie McGarry – MP for Glasgow East
