Dear Entrepreneur

Your business idea could change the way we live forever. That’s why we are inviting you to compete with fellow entrepreneurs in this year’s annual Lion’s Den.

At Lion’s Den 2021, you get the chance to pitch your current or new business idea to a panel of seasoned investors – our Lions. The pitching segment at the event provides an invaluable opportunity to learn about the structure of a pitch and what investors look for. One of the finalists last year received a substantial investment after appearing in Lion’s Den 2020.

Our accomplished Lions will assess the potential of your idea against other entrepreneurs on their business journeys. You will also receive pitch training as you progress through the competition, and may even acquire a high-profile business investment after presenting your idea to the panel.

There are a host of prizes up for grabs this year if your business idea makes it through as a finalist. If your entrepreneurial idea conquers all and emerges victorious, you will take home the grand prize of R50 000.

Will you take home the Lion’s share at this year’s Lion’s Den? Enter now to find out.

Please read our application guidelines on how to enter, and how to deliver your best pitch:
