How Dolphin Tank Works

While the venues and audiences may vary, every Dolphin Tank shares these core elements:

  • Presenters deliver a three-minute pitch addressing a challenge or unique opportunity.
  • Solutions, connections, strategies, and opportunities for investment are crowdsourced from the audience.
