The investment panel on the British television series Dragon's Den is collectively called the Dragons.
The title comes from the show's central idea: entrepreneurs enter a den-like room and face wealthy business investors who can offer money for an ownership share. Each investor is individually called a Dragon, and the group is referred to as the Dragons. Their decisions are based on the pitch, the business evidence and the proposed valuation.
“The Investors” describes their role but is not the programme's distinctive collective name. The terminology also explains the apostrophe in the title: “Dragons' Den” means the den belonging to the Dragons. The British title differs slightly in punctuation from some international versions of the format, but the investor nickname remains central to the show.
