Larry Chiang writes about business, launch parties, business school and entrepreneurship. After a Harvard event he spoke at, Harvard wrote: “What They Don’t Teach You at Stanford Business School“. He spoke at a Stanford BASES event, did Q&A via text message and now teaches us via insightful blog posts. If you liked his BASES keynote, the Q&A via text message, “What They STILL Don’t Teach You at Stanford GSB About Scamming” and, “What They STILL Don’t Teach at GSB About Screwing Someone Hard” you will like his latest post.
Shank Tank is like a launch party. It is a launch party with celebs attending.
I guess Shark Tank entrepreneurs can be guilty of being a male diva and not executing also…

You want your launch party to get users registered.Launch parties are important. Launch parties ‘distribute’. Preparing for that launch party is important. @ABCSharkTank is a lot of distribution because it is a popular TV show with celebs attending your launch party. SXSW has hosted shark tank too. It is a good place to launch for Stanford founders and technical founders.
