Shark Tank: Season 7

Introduction

As the business environment continues to experience rapid technological change, the use of economic analysis has become increasingly important for managers in the areas of production, pricing, management, financing and strategy. Given this changing business environment, people are increasingly looking to start their own business. According to the website, More Business, an entrepreneur is sometimes motivated to start a business because he has the desire to become involved in all aspects of company's operation. The entrepreneur wants to be part of the product design team, sales, marketing, engineering and production. An entrepreneur has a very specific way that he feels a successful business should be run, and this motivates the entrepreneur to start his own business and get directly involved.

I will the show “Shark Tank” during the whole semester. Shark Tank is an American reality TV show on ABC that features a panel of business executives and investors (called 'Sharks') who consider offers and listen to pitches from entrepreneurs and small business owners seeking funding for their business, products, or services.
