Episode 815 – The Shark Investors and Entrepreneurs

The Shark Tank Episode 815 entrepreneurs will make their best pitch to the panel of five Shark investors who will use their own money if they choose to invest. The Shark Investors negotiate on the spot without any previous information, which differs from typical negotiations between venture capital investors and entrepreneurial start-ups.

Companies pitching the Shark Investors must go through a rigorous due diligence process before an on-air deal is completed. Shark Tank Blog follow ups help you keep track of the companies that end up successful and the ones that don’t complete their deal.

“Episode 815” — Entrepreneurs from Somerville, Massachusetts, rent tiny houses in the woods where people can unplug, recharge and rebalance their lives; former Harvard University classmates now living in San Francisco hope the Sharks agree that snack chips made with cricket flour are the future of affordable and sustainable proteins; a concertgoer from Minneapolis, Minnesota could change the way people listen to music with earplugs designed to filter out damaging levels of sound while protecting one’s ears; and an Austin, Texas couple created a modern version of a favorite childhood toy, but a deal might be in jeopardy when the Sharks learn that a majority of their revenue comes from a single source.
