Founder Chris O'Connell stepped onto the carpet in Season 9, Episode 4 in the episode that aired 21 August 2011. Pro Slope, the artificial ski-matting business, pitched in the Other category, one of 902 other businesses to brave the Den across all 21 seasons.

No deal. Every dragon declined, and Pro Slope walked. But a Dragons’ Den appearance reaches millions of viewers whether or not a check gets written, and plenty of no-deal companies have turned that airtime into lasting businesses.

Season 9 saw 80 pitches, and 16 of them closed a deal on air. In the Other category overall, roughly 11% of pitches have landed a dragon across the show's history.
