Our read

The Hub verdict

Jess and Philip brought a natural energy drink to series seventeen with a tidy ask: £50,000 for 30 percent, valuing Brain Fud Drinks at roughly £166,667. It is a grounded number, the kind that suggests the founders wanted a fair partnership rather than a headline valuation. A deal was agreed on air, but this is one where the broadcast kept the closing terms back, so we can speak to the opening position and stop there. Thirty percent for £50,000 is what they proposed; the equity a Dragon actually took is not on the record. We would rather flag that blank honestly than paper over it, and the drink's fortunes since are a matter for a later check.

Worth knowing: Deal terms reflect the aired episode and are public record. Availability can change, and we only add a buy link once we have confirmed a current listing.
