All that you need to know about Tank Shark
Tank Shark is designed to transform the traditional entrepreneur-to-investor pitch dynamic. In this game, the students take on the role of investors. Equipped with a fictional currency as their ticket size, participants watch pre-recorded pitches from existing companies, ranging from famous to less known. Their task is to decide the valuation on which they would invest in a particular company based on the pitch content. Points are awarded to participants based on how accurately their valuation aligns with the actual valuation received by the company after the pitch.
Eligibility Criteria:
- The Tank Shark competition is open to students from all institutions across India.
