Do you have a hot new invention or the next million-dollar idea? Think you have the money-making chops to take on the savviest business tycoons in the country? Then Dragons' Den wants to hear from you!
The DRAGONS' DEN production team will be in London scouting for Season Six of the hit series on CBC Television. The show gives aspiring entrepreneurs the opportunity to pitch their businesses to a panel of wealthy Canadian moguls for the chance to earn real cash and real investment - from the Dragons' own pockets!
Open auditions are taking place on March 9th, 2010 from 11:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. at The University of Western Ontario, Room 1139 in the Faculty of Education Althouse Building, 1137 Western Road.
No experience is necessary - just be ready to pitch your business in under five minutes. If you can convince producers you're ready for the limelight, you could be invited to face the Dragons when the upcoming season is filmed in Toronto.
And as extra incentive this year, entrepreneurs with an eco-friendly business, invention or idea could qualify for a $100,000 Greenvention prize from Sun Chips.
Please apply online and bring your completed application form to the auditions. More details can be found on the show's website at cbc.ca/dragonsden.
Dragons' Den airs on CBC Television at 8 pm Wednesday nights. Full episodes and web extras can be viewed on the Dragons' Den website.
