Let's take a look at some of the highlights of the season 8 episode 1 here.

  • A New Jersey duo named Philip Petracca and David Mcdonald come up with their start-up FIZZICS which is all about a draft beer system. Sounds interesting right! As founder of the company Philip said, "FIZZICS is changing the way people are drinking their beer at home and on the go." Following the presentation, Sharkies have got to taste the FIZZICS beer and absolutely loved it. But could they make a deal out of it?
  • Next entrepreneur is Justin Kittredge who is the founder and CEO of ISlide, a company that makes customisable athletic footwear. The experienced entrepreneur seems to have a lot of celebrity customers including Justin Bieber, Madonna, DJ Khaled. But with all these, will Justin be able to convince the Sharks?
  • Another most interesting contestant in the tonight's episode is a 16-year-old Indian-origin entrepreneur Trisha Prabhu, whose ReThink app will make you think twice about the cyber bully. But can this high school junior's great thought behind the app impress the Sharks?
