Who was the youngest Dragon when Steven Bartlett joined BBC's Dragons' Den in 2022?

Steven Bartlett was the youngest Dragon when he joined BBC's Dragons' Den in 2022.

Bartlett joined the programme as a technology entrepreneur, author and podcast host. He co-founded Social Chain, a social-media marketing agency, and became known for discussing entrepreneurship and digital businesses.

His appointment made him the youngest person to serve as a Dragon in the British series. The distinction refers to age at the time he joined the panel, rather than to the age of an entrepreneur pitching in a particular episode.

Bartlett's arrival also represented a generational shift in the programme's panel. His experience was closely associated with online communities, social platforms and digitally native companies, areas that became increasingly important to modern start-ups.
