Beach Break Live Causes Waves in Dragons' Den

Last night saw Celia Norowzian (24) and Ian Forshew (25) win over not one but four of the notoriously tough Dragons in BBC2's brand new series of Dragons' Den.

In a thorough pitch the two young entrepreneurs presented their plans and projections for the UK's first student-only festival - Beach Break Live - and impressed the panel with their professional approach. Out of the four offers made to them on the show they chose to go with Peter Jones' deal.

Lured by the unique proposition of not only the UK's 1st Student festival, but also one of the only major festivals licensed to take place a short walk from a popular beach and by a realistic ethical stance, the pitch offered achievable targets with a socially responsible approach.

However, in a bold move, the dynamic duo has now decided to decline his offer. Recent accolades for 'Beach Break Live', which include a nomination for Best New Festival at The UK Festival Awards, have drawn the attention of the music industry and attracted a host of top industry partners offering support and partnerships; which Norowzian and Forshew felt to be the right alliances for their brand.
