Touker Suleyman joined the BBC programme Dragons' Den in series 13 after building a fashion and retail business career.
Suleyman is a British-Cypriot entrepreneur and investor whose business interests include fashion and retail. He became a Dragon in the thirteenth series of the British programme, adding another commercially experienced investor to the panel.
His name can be confused with earlier Dragons such as Peter Jones and James Caan, or with Nick Jenkins, who was known for founding Moonpig. Those entrepreneurs had different careers and different periods on the programme. Suleyman's connection with the show is specifically his arrival in series 13.
Suleyman is also associated with the fashion brands Ghost and Hawes & Curtis. His business career began with trading and manufacturing ventures before he developed a broader portfolio. On Dragons' Den, he evaluates pitches from entrepreneurs seeking capital, contacts and guidance in return for an ownership stake.
