Jenny has more investments per episode than Duncan Bannatyne and is on par with Touker. She, in fact, had the most investments on Series 14. She just probably has a specific portfolio in mind and clearly knows what she wants and doesn't want.

The 2k was educational institutions for students, not the professionals. The 15k revenue was from the one marketed to both professionals and the public (with 80% being professionals if i understood correctly), as a ticketed event, whichI believe he cited $89/ticket. The institutional program was a flat $2k for a range of student counts. The dinner and a dissection he quoted as $150/head and was sold out but i didn't catch a headcount per show or show count to gauge what % of his return comes from the dinner show. He clearly pivoted with what they showed to expand more in the theatrical public oriented business model, given the murder trial show segment. But I don't think the business he went in with was primarily focused on the public side.

Sara has become for me one of the most human investors of the show. Seeing her investment actually effect the other Dragons in a good human way, was very humbling. As was Will's pitch. Her confidence and experience will really help Will too. Landscapes for Learning is also another amazing one. A very human element behind the Business ethos.

Will expresses his gratitude towards those who have supported him. Sara actually cries. I think to myself, ‘What a wuss’, as I dry my own tears with a now damp tissue. That was wholesome ❤️.

Sara is a legend already, exactly what the Den needed after Jenny.
He’s adorable. So sunny, yet suffers from social anxiety. Watching Sara and Touker in tears shows him what a charming person he is.
Will's pitch, one of the most emotional ever in the den, in one of the nicest possible ways ever.
I love that they don't exploit sad backstories. Shark tank would've had a whole introduction video showing the daughter and his burns and sad sad music playing when he talks about it,
I'm on the autism spectrum and suffer with social anxiety. Will is doing a hell of a job for someone with social anxiety.

Ironically , peter said that before this a chillie paste pitch was made to the dragon den and now its a multi millionaire bussiness and he was hoping that this guy might be a second one and still yet he said no becouse the guy couldnt get the figures of sales . But the chillie paste that he was talking about before this was the same when he made the pitch , he also forgot the sales figures but has a good product . So peter ?

People who struggle with depression are more than capable of achieving whatever they wish. From my personal experience though having set up my own small business, having an investor or better still, a Dragon, helps far far more than just a cash imput. Infact, if they just said "Their you go, here's some cash, see you in 12 months time, then that could be the worst thing ever to happen to the business (from my experience).
