In AACC’s version of the ABC Network’s “Shark Tank,” credit and noncredit students who have successfully completed an AACC course in the last year compete for money to support their business venture. Students submit a comprehensive business plan and finalists pitch their idea to a panel of judges who evaluate and determine awards. In spring 2020, nine businesses received seed funds ranging from $1,000 to $15,000 for a total of $50,000. One lucky business won an additional $500 for the Fan-Favorite award, selected by the viewing audience. Four companies received a one-year membership in the Hatchery, AACC's student business incubator, and 15 new $12,000 scholarships were awarded. This competition provided over $100,000 for students!
