Evan Davis succeeded Adrian Chiles as the main presenter of the UK programme Dragons' Den.
Davis became the familiar on-screen guide for many viewers, introducing entrepreneurs, explaining the requested deals and returning to businesses after their appearances when appropriate. His role helped keep the presentation clear while the dragons focused on the financial and commercial details.
Adrian Chiles presented the first series after the programme launched in 2005. Davis then took over, becoming strongly associated with the show's long-running British run. The presenter is distinct from the investor panel: Davis does not sit among the dragons making offers.
Evan Davis is also known for his work in BBC news and radio. His presence on Dragons' Den connected the entertainment format with a more formal style of interviewing and explanation.
