Shark Tank, an American reality television programme, is setting foot in the Middle East for the first time.

In fact, the hit business series is premiering its regional debut in Egypt

The show is a multi-Emmy award-winning programme that has made its way to becoming a household name with its competitive spirit and the way it has made entrepreneurship seem approachable to a wider audience.

The concept is as follows: aspiring innovators pitch their product and service ideas to a panel of venture capitalists, aka the “sharks.” Then, they’re either accepted or completely trashed on. It’s a 50/50 chance.

The Japanese TV programme “The Tigers of Money,” from which the formula for the show originated, served as the inspiration for Shark Tank, which debuted in 2009.
