My first investment through Dragon's Den, which Stephens Scown played a big part in securing, has proved to be a tremendous success. Since that time we have continued to develop a pattern of working where Stephens Scown understands my investment requirements with a minimum of instructions. It is the nature of the TV series that a large number of the potential investments are time critical and Stephens Scown are always responsive to meet any deadlines.
