Who was the youngest Dragon ever appointed to the UK version of Dragons' Den?

Steven Bartlett was the youngest Dragon ever appointed to the UK version of Dragons' Den.

Bartlett joined the BBC programme in 2022, when he was 29 years old. His appointment brought a younger technology and social-media perspective to a panel traditionally associated with older, established business investors.

He co-founded Social Chain, a social-media marketing agency, with Dominic McGregor. Bartlett later became known internationally as the host of The Diary of a CEO podcast. His age is often compared with that of other Dragons when new panel members are announced, but the record refers to their age when appointed, not their age during a particular broadcast.
