Kyle Donovan, Founder and CEO of the iFork line of intelligently designed flatware, is excited to announce his brand secured a deal on ABC’s "Shark Tank."
On the episode that aired Sunday, January 7, Donovan brought his flagship iFork, iCup, and iPlate interlocking system before the Sharks for evaluation.
The pieces in this system are designed to seamlessly lock together, making it easy to carry one’s food, drink, and utensils at the same time without spilling or misplacing them at parties, soirees, and other events.
“While 45,000 entrepreneurs apply, less than 1% make it on the show,” said Donovan. “I was so honored to have been selected and to have the chance to make my case and gain valuable feedback from such a knowledgeable group.”
By the end of the episode, Donovan had captured the interest of one of the Sharks.
Corcoran agreed to an investment of 100k for a 15% stake in the company.
“I know I have a lot of work ahead of me,” said Donovan. “But I find no greater joy than having a vision and working to create and improve it for all the world to benefit from.”
