Season 11 of Dragons' Den Canada aired starting in 2016, and the pitches we follow from that year run the gamut, from a rental-marketplace app to a youth-led sock charity to an early fintech that would go on to dwarf its own ask.
Each pitch below carries the ask, the equity and the on-air result.
Season 11 is a study in range. The pitches here span a rental marketplace, a youth sock charity, a horseradish maker and an early fintech, and the asks run from a token $25,000 up to a full $1,000,000. That spread makes it a useful season for seeing how differently founders price themselves.
It is also the season that best explains why a handshake is not an ending. RateHub accepted a joint million-dollar offer and outgrew it before the paperwork; Hee-Haw Horseradish shook on exactly its ask and watched six months of due diligence dissolve it; LeakPro went the same way. Against those, Battle Sports and Oneiric Hockey both took royalty structures instead of selling equity, and De-Fence handed three Dragons half the company for $50,000.
A wide-ranging season where the biggest deal never actually closed.
