ATL UTD 2 will help bridge the pathway from Academy to First Team, allowing the club to develop younger players in its system. ATL UTD 2 will allow academy players experience at the professional level while also giving First Team players an opportunity to stay match fit and when returning from injury.

Martin Hill/Beebo

The Beebo was invented by a devoted, hands-on dad and engineer, Martin Hill. His baby boy was pretty fussy during evening feeding time, and Martin found that his baby became calmer when he was read to. Martin created the Beebo as a way to enhance feeding time so he could read to his boy with his free hand during feedings. Martin’s wife Sarah loved that they could more easily have family meals together while their baby also enjoyed his meal.

They found that the Beebo offered much more than just a free hand. It provided them with the freedom to interact more with their baby during those precious moments. Whether parents have multiple children or one beautiful baby to care for, the Beebo truly offers a better way to bottle feed.

Steve Waddell/NASONI

NASONI ’s Founder, Steve Waddell, began his 25-year career at Newport News Shipbuilding, building the most advanced nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and submarines the world has ever seen. As an apprentice, he graduated with academic honors and went on to become a Nuclear Refueling Engineer, responsible for refueling a reactor plant aboard the USS Enterprise, the most complex nuclear refueling effort ever undertaken at the shipyard.

In 2015, after getting tired of tilting his head under the faucet to rinse after brushing and thinking “there has to be a better way”, and, after being inspired by Shark Tank, Steve decided to take what he had learned in designing and building the world’s most complex ships, and apply it to reinventing the bathroom faucet. And the results speak for themselves. NASONI’s Fontanina Fountain Faucet is about to become the world’s best faucet, having won numerous awards for its unique, innovative design.

TIFFANY KRUMINS

Tiffany Krumins, the first Shark Tank winner, is an Atlanta native and the inventor of Ava the Elephant, a child friendly dispenser that takes the fear out of taking medicine. Called a modern day Mary Poppins, Tiffany has gone from nanny to entrepreneur, and has seen her passion to help children grow into a business that is now known and loved all over the world.

Tiffany’s success story began when she was a nanny to a little boy with Down’s syndrome who was terrified of “medicine time”. To help alleviate his fear, she constructed an animal made of fabric, sponges, a store bought medicine dropper, and a recordable sound chip from a greeting card – and Ava the Elephant was born. Knowing that she would need to find a way to produce her invention, Tiffany began searching the internet and found a casting call on Craigslist that said: “Do you have the next million dollar idea but don’t have the funding to make it happen?” She immediately applied for the casting and was invited to be on the first-ever episode of Shark Tank.

Her story has been a roller coaster ride as she went from being on a national TV show and receiving $50,000 to start her company, to learning just months later that she had thyroid cancer. While working from a hospital bed, she struggled through the growing pains of building a business and fighting cancer.

Tiffany’s appearance on Shark Tank and the success following continues to provide countless opportunities for her and her brand. Her story has received unparalleled exposure. Some of her more notable appearances and acknowledgements:

Follow-up appearances on Shark Tank on four separate occasions
Sharing her story and her product on the Dr. Oz Show to a national audience of millions of viewers
Nominated for the Top 50 Mompreneurs by Babble.com
Keynote speaker for Disney Social Media Mom’s
Her story has been featured on Forbes.com, Entrepreneur.com, TVGuide.com, YoungEntrepreneur.com, MomInventors.com and many other online and print publications
