Channel 10 released a trailer for its Shark Tank Australia reboot on Monday.
The video introduces the five brand new business stars that contestants will need to impress, including a marketing guru, an online fashion queen, and an A.I. mogul.
The show sees aspiring Aussie entrepreneurs present a product or service to a group of investors known as ‘Sharks’, for capital in return for a share of their company.
Among the cast of ‘Sharks’ for the new series are Sabri Suby, founder of digital marketing agency King Kong, Dr. Catriona Wallace, author and expert in the field of Artificial Intelligence and the Metaverse.
Also in the tank is Davie Fogarty, celebrity millionaire, founder of online retailer the Davie Group, and inventor of the world famous wearable blanket, The Oodie.
Rounding out the cast are online boutique fashion queen Jane Lu of Showpo and Robert Herjavec, a Canadian software tycoon who rose to fame on the U.S. version of the franchise over 14 seasons.
Television presenter Sarah Harris is also returning as the program’s narrator.
The teaser comes after Channel 10 announced they were seeking contestants for the reboot earlier this year, after the show last aired in 2018.
