2016 Poe Man’s Challenge in Kansas City
About the Poe Man’s Challenge
The Poe Man’s Challenge was a “Shark Tank-like” competition on Tuesday, December 13th, 2016. Eight teams of 3-4 students each met with a different Kansas City startup, learned about the company and practiced pitching their company. Four hours later, the students pitched the startup Shark Tank-style in front of a panel of judges including KC Chiefs Dontari Poe, a few of his teammates and other tech luminaries. This was an event that bridged tech, youth, and Kansas City Sports.
