Evan Davis hosted the UK television show Dragon's Den from 2005 to 2013.
Davis is a British economist, journalist and broadcaster. He became the programme's presenter when the BBC adaptation launched, guiding viewers through the entrepreneurs' pitches and the investors' deliberations.
His role was different from that of the Dragons. The entrepreneurs addressed the investors directly, while the presenter helped structure the episode and introduced the businesses. Davis later became associated with other major BBC broadcasting roles, including presenting Newsnight and Any Questions?
The programme has had more than one presenter, which can lead to incorrect answers. The question asks specifically about the period from the UK launch through 2013, when Davis was the host. Nick Hewer, Adrian Chiles and Jeremy Vine are broadcasters but were not the presenter in that period.
