Mark, Barbara, Kevin Lori and Robert are the Sharks for episode 1514. They’ll evaluate four new businesses and decide whether they’re worthy of an investment. Will the Sharks be biting tonight?
Caroline Matthes and Rose Fierman seek a Shark’s help with Poplight, their battery powered wall light that requires no tools to install. Nathaniel Wellen, great grandson of ShedRain’s founder, introduces The Duo, his patented, two handled umbrella. Berlyn Haughton wants the Sharks to bite on The Table Tyke, her portable silicon placemat with a table edge bumper for teething. Siblings and “snacktrepreneurs” Steve Atieh, Allison Lin and Kevin Atieh give the Sharks a taste of Like Air, their popcorn substitute called “puffcorn” that’s low calorie, gluten free and DELICIOUS. Which business lands a Shark tonight?
In season 14, Emma Grede invested $250,000 in Bridal Babes, a company that makes dresses for full figured women in wedding parties. They did over $1 million in sales in 2023. In tonight’s update segment, we’ll see what they’re up to now.

Episode 1514 – The Shark Investors and Entrepreneurs
The Shark Tank Episode 1514 entrepreneurs will make their best pitch to the panel of five Shark investors who will use their own money if they choose to invest. The Shark Investors negotiate on the spot without any previous information, which differs from typical negotiations between venture capital investors and entrepreneurial start-ups.
Companies pitching the Shark Investors must go through a rigorous due diligence process before an on-air deal is completed. Shark Tank Blog follow ups help you keep track of the companies that end up successful and the ones that don’t complete their deal.
