'2 Minute Drill' is an Amazon Prime/Bloomberg TV show, hosted by businessman David Meltzer which sees businesses try to get support of entrepreneurs, and a cash prize by pitching in just 180 seconds.

'Huggnote' wowed the judges and not only are they the first Irish company to appear on the show, they're the first Irish company to win.

Jacqui and Perry joined Pamela Joyce on Dermot and Dave to explain where the idea came from, and what the win means to them.
