Smith School Alumni Successfully Navigates “Shark Tank” TV Show For $100K Investment
Evan Lutz, a 2014 alum of the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of Business, recently appeared on ABC’s Shark Tank, according to an article by the school’s Office of Marketing Communications. The television show challenges contestants to pitch a business idea to a panel of potential benefactors (including Mark Cuban) in order to receive investment capital. Lutz appeared on the January 8th episode and ultimately received a $100,000 investment from Robert Herjavec for a 10 percent stake in Hungry Harvest.
