Joe Wilcox faced the sharks in Season 6, Episode 29 in the episode that aired May 15, 2015, bringing their Palo Alto, CA business with them. Sway Motorsports, the automotive, pitched in the Green & CleanTech category, one of 17 green & cleantech businesses to brave the Tank across all 17 seasons.
They came in asking $300,000 in exchange for 10% equity, putting a $3M valuation on the business.
Mark Cuban made the deal at $300,000 for 20% equity. That priced the company at $1.5M, a haircut from the $3M the founders walked in asking for, which is how negotiations in the Tank usually go.
Across Season 6, 66 of 116 pitches ended in a handshake. In the Green & CleanTech category overall, roughly 53% of pitches have landed a shark across the show's history.
