The Shark Tank Investors are entrepreneurs turned investors who will latch on to a great pitch or rip you apart if your idea is not worthy

Returning “Sharks” joining Cuban are real estate mogul Barbara Corcoran, technology innovator Robert Herjavec, fashion and branding expert Daymond John and venture capitalist Kevin O’Leary, also called Mr. Wonderful.

The Sharks listen to pitches of the best business and product ideas from some of America’s brightest entrepreneurs, ranging from start-ups to stay-at-home moms and dads. After the pitch the Sharks decide if they want to invest in the company.
