Channel your inner entrepreneur as we sharpen our persuasive skills and craft winning pitches worthy of the Sharks’ attention. From compelling hooks to clear value propositions, learn how to sell your vision in under two minutes.

### 🎤 What to Expect

✨ Warm Welcome & Icebreaker
“Elevator Pitch Intros” – In one sentence, pitch the product or service you’d bring to Shark Tank and spark everyone’s curiosity.
✨ Prepared Speeches & Table Topics

• Feature Speeches: Speakers present 3–5 minute “investor-ready” pitches, complete with problem statement, solution, and call to action.
• Shark Tank Table Topics: Draw a surprise business concept and deliver a 1–2 minute pitch on the spot—convince us to invest!

✨ Evaluation & Feedback
Help our pitchers refine their deals with constructive feedback from:

• 🧠 Speech Evaluators – Highlighting persuasive strengths and suggesting where to tighten the pitch
• 🗣️ Ah-Counter – Keeping track of every “um,” “uh,” and filler under pressure
• 📖 Grammarian – Noting powerful language, clarity, and tonight’s Word of the Day usage
• ⏱️ Timer – Ensuring every pitch stays within its allotted runtime
