- Entrepreneur: Mika Bertholdo

Guest Shark Emma Grede loved the product. She offered $150,000 for 20% equity immediately. Mika countered for 13%, but Emma explained the value she’d bring to the business. As a result, Mika ends up accepting the original offer. What does that mean for Mika and her company? Find out in our
