Which entrepreneur joined Dragon's Den in 2021 as its youngest-ever Dragon at the time?

The story behind the answer

Steven Bartlett joined Dragon's Den in 2021 as its youngest-ever Dragon at the time.

Bartlett is a British entrepreneur, investor and podcaster who co-founded Social Chain, a social-media marketing agency. His career developed in digital media and online business rather than the traditional retail and manufacturing sectors associated with several earlier Dragons.

He joined the programme for its nineteenth series, bringing a younger and strongly digital perspective to the panel. His appointment reflected the increasing importance of social platforms, online communities and technology-led brands in the businesses appearing before the Dragons.

The phrase “youngest-ever Dragon” refers to his age when he joined the panel, not to the age of the businesses he invested in. It also describes the British programme's regular Dragons and should not be confused with guest investors on international versions.
