The Sharks are Coming: Clover & Sony Pictures Television Reveal Star-Studded Line Up for the First-Ever Live Clover x Shark Tank Summit in Las Vegas

Barbara Corcoran, Robert Herjavec, Daymond John, Kevin O’Leary and Daniel Lubetzky Join Previously Announced Speakers Mark Cuban, Tabitha Brown & Gary Vaynerchuk for the Three-day Conference in September

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Clover, the world's smartest all-in-one point-of-sale system, and Sony Pictures Television (SPT), which produces the critically acclaimed, multi-Emmy Award-winning “Shark Tank,” announce legendary entrepreneurs, dealmakers, and brand builders from the Shark Tank universe as featured speakers for the first-ever live, Clover x Shark Tank Summit. Debuting in Las Vegas from September 28-30, 2025, the multi-day event is designed to give entrepreneurs the inspiration, access, and support they need to shift the odds in their favor and connect with top leaders in finance, tech, culture and entertainment. This first-of-its-kind partnership between Clover and Sony Pictures Television, announced earlier this year, aims to combat the astounding 50% small business failure rate (source: U.S. Chamber of Commerce).

This year’s Clover x Shark Tank Summit will feature renowned business tycoons – the “Sharks” from the hit reality TV show, including:

  • Barbara Corcoran, real estate mogul
  • Robert Herjavec, cyber-security technology innovator
  • Daymond John, fashion and branding expert
  • Kevin O’Leary, venture capitalist also known as “Mr. Wonderful”
  • Daniel Lubetzky, philanthropist and founder of KIND Snacks

These icons will take the stage to share the strategies, stories, and secrets behind their success — and how you can create your own luck in today’s small business landscape. The newly announced “Sharks” join an impressive lineup, which features previously announced speakers, including small business advocate, former "Shark Tank” investor and co-founder of Cost Plus Drugs, Mark Cuban; Clover’s Chief Empowerment Officer, Tabitha Brown; and social entrepreneur and digital community builder, Gary Vaynerchuk. The inaugural event will include exclusively curated “Shark Tank” activities, offering opportunities for participants to pitch on-site and receive expert feedback.

Leading up to the Clover x Shark Tank Summit, small business owners can enter to win an Access Pass for a chance to participate in the event. The entry period runs through August 11. Entrepreneurs looking to elevate their businesses should visit Clover.com for complete details.
