The UK’s first open mic pitch night, where creative talent meets innovative entrepreneurship.
In partnership with the world, let’s work together!
Why We Are Called The 40% Club
The 40% Club isn't just a name; it represents the reality that only 40% of people persevere to achieve their goals and dreams. Recognizing that 60% of people across the world give up their dreams at the first obstacle. The 40% Club serves as a beacon of inspiration, our mission is to provide everyone with the opportunity to face their fears, build their dreams, and "Just Do It Anyway." By coming together as a community, we aim to redefine the statistics and support those who are determined to make a positive impact on the world.
We are Dragon’s Den Reimagined
