What is the name of the British company behind the Dragon's Den television production?

The story behind the answer

BBC Studios is the British company behind the production of the Dragon's Den television series.

BBC Studios is the BBC’s commercial production and distribution arm. It operates separately from the BBC’s publicly funded broadcasting functions and produces programmes for the BBC as well as other broadcasters and markets.

Dragon's Den has been produced under the BBC’s commercial production structure, with the programme forming part of the corporation’s factual-entertainment output. The show’s investors and presenters have changed over time, but its association with BBC production has remained a defining part of the British version.

A common source of confusion is the difference between a broadcaster, a production company and a format owner. BBC Two was the original British broadcast channel, while BBC Studios is the production and commercial organisation. ITV Studios, Endemol Shine UK and Fremantle are major television companies, but they are not the company identified with producing the British Dragon's Den series.
