Mark Sullivan faced the sharks in Season 3, Episode 11 in the episode that aired April 13, 2012, bringing their San Antonio, TX business with them. The Sullivan Generator, the novelties, pitched in the Green & CleanTech category, one of 17 green & cleantech businesses to brave the Tank across all 17 seasons.
They came in asking $1,000,000 in exchange for 10% equity, putting a $10M valuation on the business.
The Sullivan Generator couldn't land an offer the founders would take, and the pitch ended without a deal. History says that's survivable: several of the show's biggest success stories left the Tank empty-handed.
Across Season 3, 28 of 60 pitches ended in a handshake. In the Green & CleanTech category overall, roughly 53% of pitches have landed a shark across the show's history.
