JCA announces Sharks for Jumpstart Shark Tank 2019
Sydney’s Jumpstart Shark Tank is back for its fourth successive year, showcasing the community’s top social entrepreneurs.
They’ll be pitching to four discerning sharks circling the $60,000 prize pool. Joining last year’s returning sharks – Peter Ivany and Andrew Banks – are two next-gen entrepreneurs: Noga Edelstein and Richie Harkham.
Noga has held senior roles in global technology and media companies including Yahoo!, Foxtel and IBM and was a co-founder of UrbanYou, one of Westpac’s Top 200 Businesses of Tomorrow.
She serves on the Board of SBE Australia, a not-for-profit which runs the Springboard Tech Accelerator for high-growth female-founded start-ups.
Richie, a serial entrepreneur with a string of successful businesses to his name, is also the founder of The Hark Angel Foundation, which has already built eight schools out of its mission to build 100 schools in developing nations all over the world.
Like last year, this year’s Jumpstart Shark Tank is expected to be a sell-out with four formidable sharks and five exciting pitches.
JCA Jumpstart Shark Tank 2019 is on Wednesday, November 27th. Tickets are available at: http://bit.ly/JCASharkTank2019.
