Butler County Emerging Entrepreneurs Shark Tank Competition

About the Event

Join us for the Butler County Emerging Entrepreneurs Shark Tank Pitch Competition, the culmination of months of mentorship, preparation, and innovation.

This high-energy event brings together local entrepreneurs, business leaders, investors, lenders, educators, and community partners as selected finalists take the stage to pitch their businesses in front of a panel of expert โ€œSharks.โ€

Finalists will present their business concepts, growth strategies, and visions for the future, followed by live Q&A from the Sharks. Attendees will get a front-row seat to bold ideas, real-world problem solving, and the entrepreneurial talent shaping Butler Countyโ€™s economic future.

In addition to the pitches, the evening will feature networking opportunities, community celebration, and the announcement of competition awards and next-step support for participating entrepreneurs.

Whether youโ€™re an entrepreneur, investor, mentor, student, or supporter of local business growth, this is a must-attend event that highlights innovation, collaboration, and opportunity in Butler County.
