Catch us on Shark Tank--February 26!
Hopscotch, a creative coding app designed for everyone, is taking on the stage of Shark Tank (Season 12, Episode 15) on February 26, 2021, at 8:00 PM EST.
Huge news, Hopscotchers! Hopscotch Cofounder/CEO Samantha John will appear on ABC’s Shark Tank next Friday, February 26 at 8 pm EST.
You all already know why Hopscotch is the best kids coding app on the market. Designed for use on the mobile devices you know best, Hopscotch’s visual programming language is super fun and easy to use. Plus, thanks to you all, we have the friendliest coding community on the internet!
That’s why we can’t wait for Samantha to share more about Hopscotch with the millions of folks who watch Shark Tank every week.
In case you’re not familiar with the show, it works like this: entrepreneurs apply for a chance to pitch their businesses to a panel of investors, called “Sharks.” The Sharks include some pretty big name entrepreneurs and investors like Mark Cuban, Kevin O’Leary, Barbara Corcoran, and Lori Greiner. (About 45,000 people apply to be on Shark Tank every year, so we were extremely honored to have been selected for this opportunity!) The Sharks decide whether they want to invest in the business or not, and may do some negotiating with the entrepreneur. You can read more about Shark Tank here.
We can’t tell you any more than that at the moment - you’ll have to tune in next Friday and watch. Be sure to let your friends and family know about the show, too! You’ll be able to see it live on ABC, and it will be available online the next day at ABC.com or on Hulu.
We look forward to hearing what you think about the episode. In the meantime, happy Hopscotching!
