About this Event
🐉 Dragons’ Den Live Auditions + Panel
Season 21 Starts Here.
Whether you’re wildly curious or already building something, this is your chance to see what it really takes. See companies take their first step toward braving CBC’s Dragons’ Den.
On Wednesday, March 11, join us for an insider panel discussion — then stay to watch live auditions as founders pitch for a shot at Season 21.
Located in Schmeichel Building, Collaborator Space.
🎤 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Panel Discussion: What It Takes to Face the Dragons

Selected from Western x Ivey auditions last year
