This week local entrepreneurs are invited to for a 'Dragons' Den style-pitch competition' at The Exchange.

Hosted by Richmond Council as part of its free Zenith Enterprise Programme, the event will give entrepreneurs the opportunity to pitch their business ideas to a panel of experienced business leaders and investors.

The council say: "After months of intense preparation, strategy sessions and pitch-perfecting, the competitors are ready to captivate, inspire and impress their audience.

"Attendees will get an exclusive look into unique business stories and visions, hear the tough questions asked, gain insights from the investor's perspective and watch ideas unfold live.

Join us to dive into the high-stakes world of business pitching and network with the Dragons and local talent."
