Got a Great Business Idea? Pitch It at Ram Tank — and Win a Cash Prize!

Tap into your entrepreneurial spirit with Ram Tank, inspired by the hit show Shark Tank, invites all FSC students (as a team or solo) to pitch their original business ideas to a panel of experienced judges and industry professionals. It is your opportunity to gain valuable feedback, expert advice, and compete for a monetary award! 

The competition begins with a campus-wide call for entries. If selected, you’ll present your proposal live on November 19, 2025, in front of professionals and an audience of your peers and professors. Ram Tank is all about celebrating creativity, confidence, and the drive to turn ideas into reality. 

Each year, Ram Tank continues to grow, supported by faculty, industry sponsors, and the larger Farmingdale community. It has become a hallmark event for students looking to gain real-world experience, develop their public speaking skills, and connect their academic work with entrepreneurial ambitions. Beyond prizes, participants benefit from professional feedback, networking opportunities, and the confidence that comes from presenting to a live audience.
