As a conference keynote or pannelist, entrepreneur and business speaker Duncan Bannatyne OBE, or Dragon Duncan as he is now known following his success on Dragons' Den on BBC2, is available for corporate events.
Leading Entrepreneur & Businessman
Duncan Bannatyne is one of the UK's most successful serial entrepreneurs who has created a portfolio of leisure businesses as well as carving out a high-profile media career.
He is best-known as one of the original line up dragons on the BBC's Dragons' Den, where his sharp comments put would-be entrepreneurs on the spot. Other shows include ITV's The Rich List and a documentary for BBC2 on the tobacco industry.
Duncan is a committed fundraiser and supports many charities including UNICEF and Scottish International Relief and Comic Relief. He was awarded an OBE in the 2004 Queen's Birthday Honours for his services to charity.
He is also the author of Anyone Can Do It (2007) and Wake Up and Change Your Life (2008), How To Be Smart With Your Money (2009) and How To Be Smart With Your Time (to be published in 2010) all published by Orion.
Away from Business and Speaking
When he is not speaking, presenting or running one of the country’s most profitable and largest independently owned businesses, Duncan likes to spend his time with his family, or pursuing his hobbies and sports such as running, climbing, water skiing and scuba diving. He dedicates a great deal of his time working with charitable organisations such as UNICEF and Scottish International Relief. He also established the Bannatyne Hospice for Children with HIV and AIDS in Romania.
