Brainspark Games on Dragons’ Den: How to Slay a Dragon or Three!

Reedah El-Saie is officially a Dragon Slayer!

When Brainspark Games stepped onto the set of BBC’s Dragons’ Den, no one could have predicted what would happen next: three offers, countless smiles, and a moment that’s now part of our story.

Touker Suleyman “...couldn’t say no” and, as Sara Davies MBE put it, “How to slay a Dragon, or three!” Reedah El-Saie, Founder and CEO of Brainspark Games, broke the 1% curse, securing offers from Deborah Meaden, Sara Davies, and Touker Suleyman, each investing £10,000 for 1% of the company.

To celebrate this incredible milestone, we gathered friends, family, BBB members, and key partners for an exclusive VIP Dragons’ Den Watch Party hosted by Samsung KX in London. It was a night of laughter, pride, and shared inspiration as we relived the pitch that captured the hearts of the Dragons and viewers alike.

A very special thank you to Innovate UK — Stella Peace, Emily Nott, Asha Easton, Emma Cooper, Leonie Allen, and Rachel Beach — for joining us in celebration and supporting our journey from day one.

We are also deeply grateful to our incredible community of investors, mentors, and partners whose belief in our mission has brought Brainspark to this stage: Nick Button-Brown (The Games Angels) and our Super Angels Michael Buckley, Islée Oliva Salinas, Jonathan Bunney, Afsor Miah, Sadik Miah, Vince Farquharson, James Savage, Wahed Ali Ahmed, Demi Akinjide (CAIA, CSAA, FOV Ventures), Dave Haynes, and the amazing teams behind London Games Festival, Coutts, Innovate UK, and many others who have supported this vision.

It was an unforgettable moment for everyone at Brainspark Games. We will be sharing highlights and the journey to Dragons’ Den over the coming weeks.
